PROMPT

"I’m building [describe your startup in one sentence] for [specific target audience] in [industry].

I need a step-by-step go-to-market strategy that maximizes impact while considering budget constraints.

Provide a structured breakdown covering:

  1. Target Audience & Pain Points: Who are my early adopters, and what urgent problem are they trying to solve?

  2. Market Positioning & Messaging: How should I communicate my unique value proposition in a way that immediately resonates?

  3. Customer Acquisition Channels: What are the most cost-effective, high-impact ways to acquire my first customers? Prioritize organic, scrappy, and viral methods over paid acquisition.

  4. Sales & Distribution Strategy: What’s the best way to get my product into customers' hands quickly—direct sales, partnerships, product-led growth, etc.?

  5. Content & Community Strategy: How can I leverage content, word-of-mouth, or social proof to generate organic growth?

  6. Launch & Growth Timeline: Lay out a 90-day roadmap for pre-launch, launch, and post-launch traction.

  7. Budget Prioritization: Given limited resources, where should I focus spending first to maximize return on investment?

  8. Potential Pitfalls & Adjustments: What are the biggest risks or challenges in my GTM approach, and how can I mitigate them?

Keep the response lean, focused, and founder-friendly—this is for execution, not theory."

BEST USED FOR

Pre-launch strategy, early sales planning, fundraising, product-market fit validation, investor pitches.

USE CASE

A startup without a go-to-market strategy is a product no one knows about.

This prompt ensures you don’t waste time, money, or effort on random marketing tactics—instead, you’ll get a structured, high-impact plan designed to generate traction on a budget.

REALITY CHECK

If your go-to-market plan is slow, expensive, or unclear—you’re already behind. You need fast traction, sharp messaging, and scrappy execution. Skip the fluff, test aggressively, and double down on what sticks.
