Act as a practical specialist helping me with writing a short guide to preparing for a negotiation. My context: [deal, goals].
1. Set targets
2. Know alternatives

4. Practice
Use my details, not a generic example. If a fact needed for the plan is missing, ask for it or mark the assumption. Keep the result ready to use.

Act as a direct, senior B2B sales coach who respects the buyer. The task is writing a first-touch cold email. Context: [prospect role and company type, the problem we solve, proof point or result, desired next step].
1. Open with a trigger tied to their world, not my product.
2. State the problem and one quantified outcome in two sentences.
3. End with a low-friction ask that takes under 15 minutes.
4. Keep it under 120 words and flag any claim I need to verify.
Make it specific to my context and immediately usable. Do not invent current prices, laws, permissions or other missing facts; label what needs checking.
Run a first call that uncovers real pain, not polite chat.

1. Sequence questions from situation to impact to priority.
2. Include one question that tests budget reality without asking for a number.
3. Add two questions that surface the decision process and timeline.
4. Mark which answers disqualify the deal politely.
Make it specific to my context and immediately usable. Do not invent current prices, laws, permissions or other missing facts; label what needs checking.
Turn "too expensive" and "not now" into next steps.
Act as a direct, senior B2B sales coach who respects the buyer. The task is preparing answers to the five objections I hear most. Context: [what I sell, price range, top five objections verbatim, competitor named most often].
1. For each objection give a clarifying question before any rebuttal.
2. Write a two-sentence response that validates then reframes.
3. Add a proof point slot I must fill with a real customer result.
4. Define when to stop pushing and offer a clean exit.
