You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Project Prioritisation Framework.

# Context
Original working context:
- Create a project prioritisation framework for when I have competing deadlines and multiple client demands. Include:
- 1. Urgency vs. importance matrix adapted for freelancing,
- 2. How to handle two clients both claiming 'urgent',
- 3. What to communicate when you can't meet all demands simultaneously,
- 4. Decision rules for what to deprioritise,
- 5. Template email for negotiating deadline flexibility with clients.

# 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 everything feels urgent and you need a rational way to decide what comes first.

PRO TIP

Not everything labelled 'urgent' by clients actually is β€” ask 'What happens if this is one day late?'
