The most-used sales prompts are: prospect research (before every call), cold email drafts, proposal executive summaries, objection handling responses, and post-meeting follow-ups. These are daily tasks where AI saves 30-60 minutes while improving quality and consistency.
AI can generate strong proposal drafts including structure, executive summaries, ROI narratives, and case study adaptations. However, salespeople must customise with client-specific details, verify pricing, and add genuine insights. The best proposals combine AI efficiency with human personalisation.
Store prompts in a shared platform (Notion, Google Docs, or your CRM knowledge base). Organise by sales stage: prospecting, qualification, proposal, negotiation, closing. Tag by industry and company size. Review and update monthly based on conversion data. Encourage team contributions.
