Editorial

The business prompt library, explained

Welcome to the Business hub. You'll find 10 business prompts organised by use case, ranked by quality and tagged with the AI models that handle each task best. The collection is curated, not generated — every prompt has been written by humans, tested against real workflows and refined based on what actually ships.

These prompts are built for founders, operators, consultants and strategy leads who use AI for memos, plans and analysis. They work across the major AI models — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and the leading image and video generators — and they hold up whether you're prompting in a chat window, an editor extension or a workflow tool. Useful for 1-pagers, board updates, hiring plans, GTM strategy, pricing decisions and stakeholder communications.

Why these prompts work: each one starts with a clear role, names the audience or scene, defines the output format and adds 2–3 hard constraints. That structure is what separates a vague AI answer from a usable one. The library is curated so you don't have to test 30 versions of the same prompt to find the one that actually performs — that work is already done.

Expect structured, decision-ready outputs with trade-offs and risks — not generic frameworks. You'll occasionally want to regenerate or refine, especially the first time you use a prompt with your own context. Treat each prompt as a starting structure: the variables and constraints stay, the topic and tone become yours.

Read each prompt before you copy it. Swap the placeholders for your real audience, product and constraints, and add one or two business-specific details from your own brief. The prompts here are designed to be edited — the more context you bring, the stronger the output.

If you're new to AI prompting in business, start with the featured prompts at the top of this page — they're the highest-leverage, lowest-friction picks. From there, drop into the use-case hubs below to find the exact workflow you need.

Prompt Writing Guide

How to write better Business prompts

Six habits that consistently produce stronger AI output. Apply them to any prompt on this page.

  1. 1

    Start with the decision

    Tell the model what decision the output supports — pricing change, hiring plan, board update. Outputs shape themselves around the decision.

  2. 2

    Provide the inputs

    Numbers, constraints, deadlines, stakeholders. Business prompts without data produce generic frameworks.

  3. 3

    Ask for a structured deliverable

    Memo, 1-pager, table, bullet brief. Structure is what makes business writing scannable.

  4. 4

    Name the audience by seniority

    A CEO update reads very differently from an engineering memo. State seniority and function.

  5. 5

    Request trade-offs explicitly

    Ask for pros, cons and risks for each option. This is where AI quietly adds the most value.

  6. 6

    Pin tone to your culture

    Formal, direct, candid, diplomatic. Match the prompt's tone to how your team actually talks.

Best Practices

Business best practices

Apply these in every prompt on this page. Small habits, outsized improvements in output quality.

Lead with the decision

Frame every prompt around the decision the output supports.

Supply the inputs

Numbers, constraints, deadlines. Skip and the output is generic.

Request structured deliverables

1-pager, memo, table. Structure is half the value.

Always ask for trade-offs

Pros, cons, risks. This is where AI quietly excels.

Avoid These

Common Business prompt mistakes

The same handful of mistakes are responsible for most weak AI output. Catch them before you hit send.

  • No decision to support

    Without a decision, outputs become essays. Name the decision in the first line.

  • No numbers

    Strategy without data is opinion. Always supply the inputs you want analysed.

  • Wrong audience seniority

    A board memo and a team update have different vocabularies. Name the reader.

  • Vague time horizon

    Quarter, year, three years — the framing of the answer depends on the window.

  • Skipping trade-offs

    Recommendations without trade-offs sound naive. Always request alternatives.

Pro Tips

Advanced prompt patterns

Side-by-side rewrites that show what separates a weak prompt from a great one.

Instead of

“Write a pricing strategy.”

Use

“Recommend a pricing structure for a $0–$20M ARR B2B analytics SaaS targeting RevOps leaders. Propose 3 tiers, suggest entry price points, justify each tier with a target persona and 2 acquisition implications, and end with one risk per tier.”

Why it works: Decision, persona, structure and risks are explicit.

Instead of

“Help with hiring.”

Use

“Draft a hiring plan for the next 2 quarters for a 12-person SaaS team. Inputs: $4M ARR, 80% gross margin, runway 18 months. Suggest roles to hire, sequencing, and the trade-off if we delay any single hire by one quarter.”

Why it works: Constraints and trade-off framing produce realistic plans.

Instead of

“Write a board update.”

Use

“Write a 1-page board update for a Series A SaaS founder. Sections: 1) Headline (3 lines), 2) Metrics table (ARR, NRR, burn, runway), 3) Wins, 4) Risks, 5) Asks. Tone: direct, candid, no hype.”

Why it works: Structure and tone are non-negotiable for board comms.

Instead of

“Make a roadmap.”

Use

“Propose a Q3 roadmap for a small product team. Sequence 5 themes, each with 1 outcome metric, 1 must-have, 1 nice-to-have, and the dependency on engineering capacity (4 ICs).”

Why it works: Capacity and outcomes turn roadmaps into commitments.

Instead of

“Build a sales deck.”

Use

“Outline a 12-slide sales deck for a B2B AI co-pilot targeting Heads of Customer Support at 500–5,000-seat orgs. Slides: problem, cost of inaction, demo, ROI math, social proof, security, pricing, next steps.”

Why it works: Audience and slide-by-slide intent drive the structure.
