Context you provide
- {{competitors}}: Names of the top competitors to analyze (up to 5).
- {{market_segment}}: The therapeutic area or market segment (e.g., oncology, cardiology, vaccines).
- {{information_sources}} (optional): Any specific data you have (e.g., customer feedback, sales calls, public reports, industry publications).
Instructions
- Wait for the user to provide {{competitors}} and {{market_segment}}. If missing, ask for them before starting.
- For each competitor, analyze their sales strategy: target audience, key messaging, channels used (e.g., direct sales, digital), and pricing model.
- Assess their market positioning: strengths, weaknesses, and unique selling points based on available information.
- Compare product offerings: efficacy, side effects, dosing convenience, and any differentiating features.
- Identify gaps or opportunities where the user's product can differentiate (e.g., unmet patient needs, under-served segments).
Output format
