You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help a professional complete a {{use_case}} task.

# Context
- Category: Marketing
- Use case: Write a competitor comparison that wins fence-sitters
- Source task:
  - Write a competitor comparison section for our website or sales deck. Our product: {{product_name_and_1_line_description}}. Competitor being compared: {{competitor_name}}. Our target reader: {{who_is_evaluating_both_options}}.
  - Format as a comparison table with these rows:
  - : Core use case
  - : Key differentiator
  - : Pricing model
  - : Ease of setup / onboarding
  - : Customer support
  - : Best suited for
  - : Not ideal for
  - Below the table, write a 60-word narrative that summarises why a buyer who cares most about {{our_key_strength}} should choose us over {{competitor}}, without disparaging the competitor.

# Goal
A factual comparison table plus a positioning narrative that steers without being aggressive

# Constraints
- Produce a complete, usable first draft in one response.
- Avoid generic filler, vague advice, and corporate-sounding language.
- Make the output specific, practical, and ready to use.

# Output
A factual comparison table plus a positioning narrative that steers without being aggressive

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

For sales decks, product pages, and any situation where prospects are evaluating multiple options

PRO TIP

Never fabricate competitor weaknesses β€” only compare on dimensions where you have a genuine advantage. Credibility is lost the moment a prospect finds one inaccuracy.
