Your primary objective is to create compelling proposals that highlight the unique value proposition of a specific product or service and align with the target client's needs and goals. Take a deep breath and work on this problem step-by-step. Use the dependency grammar framework to structure your writing, ensuring clarity and coherence in your proposals. Begin by analyzing the target client's profile, industry trends, and pain points. Then, craft a tailored value proposition that addresses these specific needs. Develop a clear, logical structure for your proposal, emphasizing the benefits and solutions your product or service offers. Include relevant case studies, testimonials, or data to support your claims. Conclude with a strong call-to-action that encourages the client to take the next step in the sales process.

5. Objection Handling Script for Sales
Prompt: Act as a high-performing B2B sales strategist. I’m facing the following challenge: [Insert problem you're facing, with background — e.g., losing deals due to price objections, early-stage buyers pushing back, stakeholder misalignment, etc.].
Create a persuasive, value-driven objection handling script for when a [job title] in the [industry] says: "[Insert common objection — e.g., 'Your product is too expensive.']". The script should be written as a natural dialogue between the sales rep and the prospect. Emphasize ROI, long-term value, and weave in a short, relevant customer success story to build credibility.
The tone should be confident, consultative, and empathetic — not defensive. Format the script in a way I can easily copy and adapt, using [Rep:] and [Prospect:] lines. Include 1–2 variations of key lines for flexibility, and finish with a smart call-to-action that moves the conversation forward.
Bonus: suggest one follow-up email subject line and message I can send if the prospect still seems hesitant.
6. Chris Voss negotiation technique
Prompt:
Act as a seasoned sales expert trained in Chris Voss's FBI negotiation techniques from Never Split the Difference. Help me apply these methods to improve my sales conversations, especially in high-stakes B2B deals. Use a real-world sales scenario — for example, negotiating pricing or contract terms with a skeptical decision-maker — and guide me through how to use calibrated questions ("How" and "What"), tactical empathy, mirroring, labeling, and the "accusation audit" to build trust and shift the conversation in my favor. Show me how to uncover hidden objections, slow the negotiation down to my advantage, and make the other person feel in control while guiding them toward my desired outcome. Include a sample dialogue, suggested phrases to use at each stage of the sales process, and how to handle a "no" as a gateway to "yes." End with a one-page cheat sheet of Voss-style sales tactics and a preparation checklist I can use before every important sales call.
7. Cold Outreach
Prompt:
Act as an expert B2B copywriter and SDR. Help me write a cold outreach email that sparks curiosity, feels personal, and avoids sounding like a typical sales pitch. I’m selling [brief description of your product/service and its core benefit], targeting [specific audience], and solving [pain point]. I want the tone to be [enter tone], and if possible, include a creative first line that doesn’t feel generic, a compelling subject line (with 2 alternatives), a concise email under 120 words, a clear CTA (like “Worth a quick chat?”), and optionally, a light joke or pop culture reference that fits the audience. You can also reference this recent success: [optional social proof or name drop].
8. Sales Pitch
Prompt:
Adopt the role of a seasoned sales professional crafting a compelling sales pitch for [PRODUCT/SERVICE NAME]. Begin by outlining the unique selling points and key features of the product that differentiate it from competitors in the market. Identify the target audience for [PRODUCT NAME] and tailor the pitch to address their specific needs, pain points, and desires. Highlight the tangible benefits that users will experience, using persuasive language and real-world examples or testimonials if available. Include a clear, actionable call-to-action that guides potential customers on what to do next. Conclude your pitch by reiterating the value proposition of [PRODUCT NAME] and why it is a must-have solution for the target audience. Ensure the tone is engaging, confident, and aligns with the brand's voice.
9. Role-play a cold call
Prompt:
You will help me roleplay a cold call. The purpose of this roleplay is for me to understand the effectiveness of my sales pitch and prepare to handle objections. So, pretend you are the [position at company] and you receive a cold call from [position, company and nature of business] selling [product/service description]. Here is the sales pitch you hear: [insert cold call script]. Now, pretend to role play and come up with possible questions you may ask, or objections you may have after hearing the pitch. Tell me how you’d expect me to respond to each of your questions and objections.
