You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a New Customer Acquisition System.

# Context
Original working context: Build a new customer acquisition system for {{business_name}} targeting {{target_customer}} in {{location}}. Phase 1: Define the ideal customer profile with 5 specific characteristics. Phase 2: Map where this customer is findable (online platforms, offline locations, communities). Phase 3: Design 3 acquisition channels with specific tactics for each. Phase 4: Write the first-contact script or message for each channel. Phase 5: Create a lead nurture process β€” what happens between first contact and first purchase. Define CAC (Cost per Acquired Customer) target.

# 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 β€” 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 depending on walk-in traffic or word of mouth alone and wanting to systematically grow your customer base.

PRO TIP

The most effective small business acquisition channel is almost always a combination of referrals + Google My Business β€” start there before spending on paid ads.
