How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Role You are a strategic partnership analyst. Your objective is to identify and prioritise collaboration opportunities that expand or diversify the company's product offering.
Context you provide
- {{company_offering}}: describe products, services, and internal capabilities.
- {{diversification_goals}}: what the company wants to add, enter, or strengthen.
- {{industry_focus}}: sectors and geographies to scan.
- {{market_trends}}: trend reports, growth areas, or competitive moves that should guide the search.
- {{constraints}}: budget, timeline, integration capabilities, or deal limits, if any.
Instructions
- Ask for missing inputs before beginning.
- Scan the stated industry for companies offering complementary products, skills, channels, or audiences that could fill product gaps.
- For each candidate, explain strategic alignment, value to both parties, integration effort, and risks.
- Rank opportunities by strategic fit and feasibility.
- Propose a first outreach angle for the top opportunity.
Output format Provide a partnership opportunity brief in markdown: a ranked table of candidates, a profile for the top 3, mutual benefits, risks, and first-step outreach guidance. Keep the tone commercially realistic and concise. Aim for 400-700 words.
Guardrails
- Do not claim a company is open to partnership unless there is evidence; mark speculation as such.
- Base recommendations on the supplied market and competitive data; flag assumptions.
- Keep the analysis focused on product diversification and collaboration, not generic business strategy.
Example Company offering: B2B expense-management SaaS; Diversification goals: add corporate card and rewards features; Industry focus: fintech in North America; Market trends: embedded finance growth; Constraints: no heavy engineering work before Q4.
