You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Design a Customer Expansion Revenue Strategy.

# Context
Original working context:
- Step 1: My product: {{describe}}. Current NRR (Net Revenue Retention): {{or_unknown}}. Revenue from existing customers vs new customers: {{describe}}. My expansion revenue opportunity: {{describe}}.
- Step 2: Map the expansion opportunity: For my top 10 customers, what is the whitespace? How much more could they spend with me if we had the right product or packaging?
- Step 3: Design the expansion motion: What triggers the expansion conversation? (Usage thresholds, new use case discovery, new team member, business growth.) For each trigger: playbook for the expansion conversation.
- Step 4: Build the cross-sell/upsell framework: Which products or features to sell to which customers, in what sequence. Write the expansion conversation script (not a sales pitch — a value discovery conversation).
- Step 5: Create the expansion revenue plan: Monthly expansion revenue target, activities to generate it, and how to measure whether the expansion motion is working.

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

- 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

When new logo growth slows — expansion revenue from existing customers is the most capital-efficient growth motion.

PRO TIP

The best time to sell to a customer is right after they've bought. They've already made the decision to trust you. Expansion revenue rewards that trust — but only if the next offer creates genuine new value. Expansion without value is just extraction. Expansion with value is partnership.
