Current business model: {{describe}}. Current revenue: ₹{{amount}}. Biggest model constraint: {{describe}}. Task: Design a more scalable version of my business model. Format: Business model audit: What's working, what's the bottleneck, and what won't scale → Scalability levers: Which of these apply to my business: network effects, platform model, marketplace dynamics, SaaS economics, content moats, data flywheel? → Business model options: 3 alternative/enhanced model designs with tradeoff analysis → Recommended model evolution: The single best evolution of my current model for the next 3 years → Implementation roadmap: The 5 biggest changes needed to shift to the scalable model → Risks of transformation: What could go wrong during the model transition? Constraints: India-specific business model considerations — include UPI-based business models, WhatsApp commerce, the India stack (Aadhaar, ONDC), and rural/Bharat market opportunities.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone — formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

Before scaling — stress-test whether your current business model can actually scale or whether it'll break at 10x.

PRO TIP

Not all business models scale equally. A consulting business can grow linearly — but it'll always need more people to grow more. A SaaS business can grow exponentially — the 100th customer costs almost nothing to serve. Know what model you're in and choose it consciously.
