Prospecting & outreach
Cold sales email
Write a cold sales email to [role] at a [company type]. We help teams like theirs [specific outcome, with a rough metric]. Lead with a relevant trigger or pain, not our features; keep it under 90 words with one soft call to action.
LinkedIn message
Write a short LinkedIn connection request and a follow-up message for [role] at [company]. Reference [something specific about them], no pitch in the first message, and keep both under three sentences.
Value proposition
Draft three one-sentence value propositions for [product] aimed at [buyer persona]. Each should name the outcome and who it's for, and avoid vague words like 'streamline' or 'leverage'.
Discovery & qualification
Discovery questions
Give me 10 open-ended discovery questions to understand a prospect's [problem area], budget, decision process and timeline, without sounding like an interrogation. Group them by topic.
Qualify a lead
Based on these notes from a first call, assess how qualified this lead is (fit, pain, budget, authority, timing) and suggest the best next step: [paste your notes].
Research a prospect
Summarize what I should know before a call with [company]: what they do, likely priorities for [role], and three tailored talking points. Here's what I have: [paste any info].
Objections & follow-up
Handle an objection
The prospect said: '[paste the objection, e.g. it's too expensive / we already use X / not the right time]'. Give me three honest ways to respond that acknowledge it and move the conversation forward, with no pushy tactics.
Follow up after a call
Write a follow-up email after a sales call. Recap what we agreed, restate the value in their words, and confirm the next step and a date. Notes: [paste call notes].
Revive a cold deal
Write a short email to revive a deal that's gone quiet after [event]. Add a genuine new reason to talk, not just 'checking in', and make it easy to say yes or no.
Proposals & closing
Draft a proposal
Outline a concise proposal for [prospect] covering their goals, our recommended solution, scope, pricing options and next steps. Keep it skimmable. Context: [paste it].
Summary for the buyer's boss
Write a one-paragraph internal summary my champion can forward to the decision-maker, covering the problem, the fix, the cost and the expected return. Context: [paste it].
Ask for the close
Suggest three low-pressure ways to ask for the deal at this stage, given [where things stand]. Each should make the next step concrete.
Sell without the cringe
The best AI sales prompts give the model context about the buyer and the situation, then ask for something specific — an opener, an objection response, a follow-up — rather than a generic pitch. Keep the human judgment and use AI for the first draft and the blank-page problem. See also marketing prompts and email prompts.
FAQ
Do these work for cold email and LinkedIn?
Yes — there are prompts for cold outreach, LinkedIn messages, follow-ups and objections. Add real context about the buyer and the trigger for the best results.
Won't AI outreach feel spammy?
It will if you send generic blasts. These prompts push for a specific, relevant angle and a single soft ask, which is what actually earns replies.
