Team up with the business next door for a joint offer

The café, the florist and the barber all share customers but never work together. Get a joint offer that brings each of you new faces, and the words to pitch it.

The prompt · ChatGPT

Help me plan a joint offer with another local business.

My business: [what you do and where]
The business I'd like to team up with: [what they do]
Customers we share or could share: [e.g. parents after school drop-off]
What I could offer: [e.g. a voucher, a discount, a free extra]
What they might offer: [your guess]
How we'd promote it: [e.g. both counters, socials, a leaflet]

Ask me up to 3 short questions first. Wait for my answers.

Then:
1. Three joint offer ideas that send customers both ways.
2. The best one, written up: what customers get, how long it runs, how it's tracked.
3. A friendly pitch to my neighbour, spoken and written.
4. A one-page agreement: who does what, who pays for what, and how we'll check it worked.
5. A post and counter sign for the offer.

Fair to both, keep it simple, UK English.
