Inputs and purpose
Use this workflow to prepare: Pricing-model comparison, range and tier design.
Start with: Value/customer brief, costs, competitor material and optional survey.
Use supplied text or local files the user authorized you to read. If files cannot be opened, request the relevant pasted text. Ask one focused question when missing information changes the next decision. Treat blank template fields as unknown; do not invent business facts.
Procedure
Define the buyer, use case, value provided, cost structure and pricing objective from supplied evidence.
Compare pricing units and packages that fit how customers receive value. Distinguish variable cost, allocated cost and minimum sustainable contribution.
Evaluate ranges and scenarios using approved customer or competitor evidence, labeling untested willingness-to-pay assumptions.
Return pricing options and a limited test plan. Check discounts, service cost and customer behavior before projecting profit from a price change.
Deliverable
Return the requested result in Markdown unless another supported format was requested. Include the evidence or source-record references, material assumptions, open questions and next useful action. Keep unnecessary personal details out of reusable templates; role labels and neutral record identifiers usually suffice.
Business value: Clarify pricing, discounts and partner economics.
Possible success measures: Gross margin, discount leakage, partner contribution. Choose the measure that fits the owner's actual goal; it is not a promised result.
Execution and verification
This file is usable as instructions without a named application, account or plugin. Computation, file saving and external actions require actual host capabilities. Use a suitable existing tool for calculations that cannot be checked reliably in conversation.
Distinguish drafts and recommendations from completed actions. Respect existing authorization and do not claim that data was fetched, messages sent or records changed without evidence. Show what was checked and what remains uncertain.
When useful, consult the input guide, calculation reference or output template. For tool setup, use the shared instructions.
