Sales prompts.

You are a senior sales strategist who has written cold emails generating 40%+ open rates and 12%+ reply rates for B2B SaaS companies. You understand that the first two lines determine whether the email gets read or deleted. Write a personalized cold outreach email for the following context: Sender: [YOUR_NAME], [YOUR_ROLE] at [YOUR_COMPANY] Prospect: [PROSPECT_NAME], [PROSPECT_TITLE] at [PROSPECT_COMPANY] Prospect's industry: [INDUSTRY] Prospect's company size: [COMPANY_SIZE: e.g., "50-200 employees" / "Series B startup" / "Fortune 500"] Specific pain point to target: [PAIN_POINT: e.g., "slow lead response time" / "rep ramp time exceeds 6 months" / "pipeline visibility gaps"] Research signal (why now): [TRIGGER: e.g., "recently hired 5 new AEs" / "announced expansion into EMEA" / "posted about CRM frustrations on LinkedIn"] Your product's relevant value: [VALUE_PROP: one sentence on what you solve] Desired next step: [CTA: e.g., "15-min call" / "send a 2-min demo video" / "share a case study"] Please produce: 1. **Subject line**: Under 40 characters. Personalized, curiosity-driven. No clickbait. No ALL CAPS. 2. **Opening line**: Reference the research signal. Show you did homework. Never start with "I" or "My name is." 3. **Pain agitation** (1-2 sentences): Name the specific challenge they likely face. Use language their peers would use. 4. **Value bridge** (1-2 sentences): Connect your product to their pain. Lead with outcome, not features. Include one proof point (metric, customer name, or case study teaser). 5. **Soft CTA**: Low-friction ask. Give them an easy "yes." Offer a specific day/time or alternative action. 6. **P.S. line**: Optional but effective. Add a relevant insight, stat, or content link that provides value even if they don't reply. Rules: Total email must be under 150 words. No jargon. No "I hope this finds you well." No feature lists. Every sentence must earn its place.

You are a senior sales strategist and discovery call coach who has trained hundreds of account executives at high-growth SaaS companies. You are an expert in the SPIN selling methodology and consultative selling techniques. Create a complete discovery call script for the following scenario: Your product/service: [PRODUCT_NAME]: [ONE_SENTENCE_DESCRIPTION] Target buyer persona: [BUYER_TITLE] at [COMPANY_TYPE: e.g., "mid-market e-commerce companies"] Common pain points for this persona: [PAIN_1], [PAIN_2], [PAIN_3] Your key differentiators: [DIFFERENTIATOR_1], [DIFFERENTIATOR_2] Call duration target: [DURATION: e.g., "30 minutes"] Meeting context: [CONTEXT: e.g., "inbound demo request" / "cold outbound meeting" / "referral introduction"] Structure the script in these phases: **Phase 1: Rapport and Agenda Setting (2-3 min)** - A natural opening line that acknowledges their time and sets a collaborative tone - An agenda statement that positions you as a guide, not a pitcher - A permission question to confirm the agenda and invite them to add topics **Phase 2: Situation Questions (5-7 min)** - 4-5 open-ended questions to understand their current state, tools, process, and team structure - For each question, include a follow-up probe and the insight you are listening for **Phase 3: Problem Questions (5-7 min)** - 4-5 questions that surface frustrations, gaps, and inefficiencies in their current approach - Include transition phrases that connect their situation answers to deeper problems **Phase 4: Implication Questions (5-7 min)** - 3-4 questions that help the prospect quantify the cost of inaction: lost revenue, wasted time, missed opportunities - Include a "have you calculated..." or "what happens if..." framing for each **Phase 5: Need-Payoff Questions (3-5 min)** - 3-4 questions that guide the prospect to articulate the value of solving this problem in their own words - These should lead naturally into your solution without you pitching **Phase 6: Next Steps and Close (2-3 min)** - A summary framework: "Based on what you shared, it sounds like [X], [Y], and [Z] are top priorities..." - A clear next-step proposal with a specific action and timeline - A fallback if they hesitate For each phase, include coaching notes in brackets on tone, pacing, and what to listen for.

You are a senior sales strategist who specializes in objection handling and negotiation psychology. You have coached deal teams through thousands of high-stakes conversations and understand that objections are buying signals, not rejections. Build a comprehensive objection handling playbook for: Product/service: [PRODUCT_NAME]: [ONE_SENTENCE_DESCRIPTION] Average deal size: [DEAL_SIZE: e.g., "$25K ARR" / "$500/mo"] Sales cycle length: [CYCLE: e.g., "30-60 days"] Primary competitors: [COMPETITOR_1], [COMPETITOR_2], [COMPETITOR_3] Your strongest proof points: [PROOF_1: e.g., "3x ROI in 90 days for Acme Corp"], [PROOF_2], [PROOF_3] For each of the following objection categories, provide 2-3 specific objection variations and a response for each using the Acknowledge-Bridge-Close structure: **Category 1: Price / Budget** - "It's too expensive" - "We don't have budget right now" - "Your competitor is cheaper" **Category 2: Timing** - "We're not ready to make a change" - "Let's revisit next quarter" - "We just signed a new contract with another vendor" **Category 3: Competitor / Status Quo** - "We're already using [COMPETITOR]" - "We built something in-house" - "What makes you different from [COMPETITOR]?" **Category 4: Authority / Process** - "I need to run this by my team/boss" - "We have a long procurement process" - "Send me some materials and I'll review" For EACH response, follow this structure: 1. **Acknowledge**: Validate their concern without agreeing. Show you understand their position. 2. **Bridge**: Reframe the objection with a question or insight that shifts perspective. Use data or social proof. 3. **Close**: Propose a specific, low-friction next step that keeps the deal moving. Also include for each category: - A "red flag" indicator (when the objection signals the deal is truly dead) - A "what to NEVER say" warning End with 3 universal principles for handling any objection you have not anticipated.

You are a senior sales strategist who has written winning proposals for enterprise deals ranging from $50K to $5M. You understand that a great proposal is not a product brochure: it is a decision document that makes it easy for the buyer to say yes. Build a complete sales proposal for: Your company: [YOUR_COMPANY]: [ONE_SENTENCE_DESCRIPTION] Prospect company: [PROSPECT_COMPANY] Prospect decision maker: [DECISION_MAKER_NAME], [TITLE] Deal context: [CONTEXT: e.g., "post-discovery call" / "RFP response" / "competitive evaluation"] Problems identified during discovery: [PROBLEM_1], [PROBLEM_2], [PROBLEM_3] Proposed solution/package: [SOLUTION_DESCRIPTION] Pricing: [PRICING_MODEL: e.g., "$2,500/mo for 50 seats" / "one-time $75K implementation + $30K ARR"] Implementation timeline: [TIMELINE: e.g., "4-week rollout"] Key competitors in the deal: [COMPETITOR_1], [COMPETITOR_2] Structure the proposal in these sections: **1. Executive Summary** (half page) - Open with the prospect's goals, not your product. Restate the 2-3 critical challenges they shared. - State the recommended solution and the projected business outcome in one sentence. - End with a clear ask and timeline. **2. Current Situation and Challenges** - Mirror the prospect's language from discovery. Name their pain concretely with quantified impact where possible. - Include 3 bullet points connecting each challenge to a business cost (revenue, time, risk). **3. Proposed Solution** - Map each identified problem to a specific capability. Lead with outcomes, not features. - Include a solution architecture diagram description or workflow overview. - Call out what is included AND what is not included (scope clarity prevents surprises). **4. Pricing and Investment** - Present pricing with a clear breakdown (line items, tiers, or options). - Include an ROI calculation: cost of solution vs. cost of the problems remaining unsolved. - Offer 2-3 pricing options when possible (Good / Better / Best) to anchor value. **5. Implementation Timeline** - Week-by-week or phase-by-phase plan with milestones, owners, and deliverables. - Highlight the time-to-value moment: when they will see first results. **6. Why [YOUR_COMPANY]** - 3 proof points: case study snippet, metric, or testimonial relevant to their industry. - Differentiation statement: what you do that alternatives cannot. **7. Next Steps** - Specific actions with owners and dates. - Signature block or approval pathway. - Expiration date for the proposal terms. Rules: Write in second person ("you" / "your team"). Keep the total proposal under 6 pages. Every section should be skimmable with bold headings and bullet points.

You are a senior sales strategist and email sequence architect who has built follow-up cadences that recover 25-35% of deals that go dark. You understand that persistence without value is spam, but persistence with value is professional selling. Create a 5-touch follow-up email sequence for the following scenario: Your product/service: [PRODUCT_NAME]: [ONE_SENTENCE_DESCRIPTION] Prospect: [PROSPECT_NAME], [PROSPECT_TITLE] at [PROSPECT_COMPANY] Last interaction: [LAST_TOUCH: e.g., "discovery call 5 days ago" / "demo, no response to proposal" / "said 'let me think about it'"] Key pain point discussed: [PAIN_POINT] Relevant case study or proof point: [CASE_STUDY: e.g., "Acme Corp reduced churn 40% in 90 days"] Content asset available: [ASSET: e.g., "ROI calculator" / "industry report" / "comparison guide"] Urgency lever (if any): [URGENCY: e.g., "pricing changes next month" / "Q4 implementation deadline" / "limited onboarding slots"] Write the complete sequence: **Touch 1: Value-Add (Day 1)** - Subject line and full email body - Angle: Provide genuine value without asking for anything. Share a relevant insight, tip, or resource tied to their pain point. - Tone: Helpful, not pushy. Position yourself as a resource, not a salesperson. - End with a soft question, not a meeting request. **Touch 2: Case Study (Day 5)** - Subject line and full email body - Angle: Share a brief, relevant customer success story. Focus on a company similar to theirs with a specific, quantified result. - Structure: Situation (1 sentence) → Solution (1 sentence) → Result (1 sentence with a number). - CTA: "Would it be useful to see how they did it?" **Touch 3: Social Proof / New Angle (Day 10)** - Subject line and full email body - Angle: Introduce a different perspective: a new feature, an industry trend, or a mutual connection. - Include a stat or third-party validation. - CTA: Offer a specific low-commitment action (e.g., "I can send a 2-min video walkthrough"). **Touch 4: Urgency (Day 17)** - Subject line and full email body - Angle: Create legitimate urgency tied to their timeline, your pricing, or a market window. - Be direct about the cost of waiting. Reference the original pain point. - CTA: Propose a specific date and time for a brief call. **Touch 5: Breakup Email (Day 21)** - Subject line and full email body - Angle: Professional close-the-loop email. Acknowledge that the timing may not be right. Leave the door open. - Include a one-line summary of the value you can provide. - End with: "If priorities shift, I'm here." No guilt, no passive aggression. For each email: keep under 100 words, include subject line, and note the psychological principle at work (reciprocity, social proof, loss aversion, etc.).

You are a senior sales strategist and customer relationship executive who has conducted hundreds of QBRs that strengthen partnerships, uncover expansion revenue, and prevent churn.
