You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Service Line Expansion Strategy.

# Context
Original working context:
- I want to expand my freelance {{current_service}} to add {{new_service}}. Plan the expansion.
- Step 1: Evaluate strategic fit (how complementary is the new service?).
- Step 2: Skills gap and acquisition plan.
- Step 3: Pricing and positioning the new service.
- Step 4: Soft launch to 3 existing clients.
- Step 5: Case study creation plan.
- Step 6: Full public launch.
- Step 7: Revenue integration into my business model.

# 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 you see a clear opportunity to expand what you offer without starting over.

PRO TIP

Expand to existing clients first β€” they already trust you and generate the fastest case studies.
