Builds a business plan for an online store: market analysis, financial projections, marketing, operations and a milestone roadmap. Useful when you are launching or scaling a shop.

The skill walks the agent through four steps. First it pulls the product, platform, current situation and goals out of your message. Then it asks one follow-up covering everything left, in multiple-choice form, so you can answer in shorthand like "1b 2c 3a". After that it runs the analysis against the frameworks baked into the skill and hands back a structured document with specific recommendations instead of vague advice.
What lands in the plan: market sizing through TAM/SAM/SOM, a competitive landscape review, a choice between DTC, marketplace or hybrid model, and financial projections covering revenue, costs, break-even and cash flow. Marketing strategy comes with CAC and LTV targets, the operations section covers fulfillment, supply chain and technology, and the roadmap is split into 3-month, 6-month and 12-month milestones.
Amazon, Shopify, WooCommerce, Walmart, TikTok Shop, Etsy, eBay and BigCommerce are all listed as supported, and the skill adjusts its logic per platform. Estimates built on incomplete data get flagged with ⚠️, so you can see which numbers are rough. Leave the platform or budget out of your answers and the projections drift, because the skill only works from what you feed it.
What it helps with
- size a new niche with TAM/SAM/SOM
- work out break-even and cash flow for a store
- decide between DTC, marketplace and hybrid models
- lay out marketing with CAC and LTV targets
- split a launch into 3, 6 and 12-month milestones
Example prompts for the agent
- I want to start an e-commerce business selling premium dog accessories. Budget: $15,000. Help me create a business plan.
- Build a plan for a Shopify store: competitor analysis, revenue forecast and break-even point.
- Give me a 3, 6 and 12-month roadmap for launching on Etsy.
