You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Demand Planning for New Product Launch.

# Context
Original working context:
- Step 1: I'm launching a new product {{product_description}} with no historical data. Estimate initial demand using: competitor BSR analysis, keyword search volume, and comparable product launch data.
- Step 2: Design a conservative, base, and aggressive initial order quantity scenario with break-even analysis for each.
- Step 3: Create a launch velocity monitoring system — at what daily sales rate should I place a reorder to avoid stocking out before the next delivery arrives?
- Step 4: Define my inventory decision tree for the first 90 days — the specific triggers that would lead me to order more, order less, or pause sales. 📌

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.
- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.
- Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

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

Planning the first inventory order for a new product without historical data to rely on. ✅

PRO TIP

Order a 'test quantity' first — enough to validate market demand and refine your listing before committing to a full production run. A smaller first order at higher COGS is always cheaper than a full order of a product that doesn't find its market.
