💼 Business Prompt
Business KPI Dashboard Designer
Define the exact metrics your business should track and build a reporting structure around them
The Prompt
Act as a business analytics consultant. Help me design a KPI dashboard and reporting structure for my company.
Business Context:
- Business Type: [E-COMMERCE / SAAS / AGENCY / RETAIL / SERVICES / OTHER]
- Stage: [EARLY STAGE / GROWTH / SCALING]
- Team Size: [NUMBER]
- Current Metrics I Track: [LIST WHAT YOU ALREADY MEASURE]
- Decisions I Struggle to Make: [E.G., "when to hire," "whether marketing is working"]
- Goal This Quarter: [YOUR #1 OBJECTIVE]
Deliver:
1. North Star Metric (the one number that tells me if the business is healthy)
2. CEO-Level KPIs (5-7 metrics reviewed weekly)
3. Department KPIs (for each team: 3-4 metrics each)
4. Leading vs Lagging Indicators (which metrics predict vs confirm)
5. Weekly Dashboard Template (what to review Monday morning)
6. Monthly Board-Level Reporting Structure
7. Red Lines (thresholds that trigger immediate action)
Explain WHY each metric matters, not just what it is. Flag any metric I should STOP tracking.
💡 How to use this prompt
- If you track more than 10 metrics weekly, you're tracking none of them. Cut ruthlessly.
- Leading indicators (like "demos booked") matter more than lagging ones (like "revenue") for fast decision-making.
- After generating, ask: "What metric would a PE firm add to this dashboard that I'm missing?"
