ChatGPT Prompts for Strategy

Stuck between options and going in circles? Lay them out — it scores each against what you actually care about and tells you which way it points.

If people don't get why you in 5 seconds, you lose them. Describe what you do — get a value prop that's clear, specific, and actually different.

If you're 'for everyone,' you're for no one. Describe your product and market — get a positioning statement that stakes out a clear spot in people's heads.

Forget the 40-page deck nobody reads. Describe your idea — get a one-page plan that forces clarity on what it is, who pays, and how it makes money.

Stop marketing to 'everyone.' Describe your product — get a sharp customer persona: who they are, what keeps them up at night, and how to reach them.

Launching something and don't want it to land with a thud? Tell it what and when — get a week-by-week plan: pre-buzz, launch day, and the follow-through.

Before you build it, let it poke holes. Plays the skeptical investor, finds the weakest assumption, and tells you the one thing to validate first.

Know your enemy. Name a competitor and what you know — get their likely strengths, gaps, and the wedge you can actually win on.

A real strategic gut-check, fast. Tell it about your business or project — get strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats, and what to do about each.
