How to use it in ChatGPT
- Answer the questions above. Only the starred ones are required.
- Click Copy prompt.
- Open a new chat in ChatGPT, paste the prompt, then paste anything the prompt asks for right below it.

If you've connected your email or other apps to ChatGPT, choose "Let my AI look them up" so it can use them as the source of facts.
Example: the finished prompt
For a sample company, Northside Supply. Yours uses your answers and your company profile.
### About me and my company My name: Sam Rivera My role: Sales manager My company: Northside Supply What we sell: Commercial shelving and racking, installed in 2–3 weeks Who we sell to: Warehouses and distribution centers ### Task Help me prepare for a meeting with Harbor Foods: Dana Lopez (ops) and Marcus Lee (purchasing), a prospect (not a customer yet). Meeting type: first call to learn their needs. Length: 30 minutes. Topic: Install timeline for the new warehouse My goal: Agree on a pilot at one location and a start date. ### Details What I know: Growing fast, 3 warehouses. Current shelving vendor missed two install dates. ### Rules - Tone: friendly and warm, but professional. - No buzzwords: avoid "leverage", "synergy", "circle back", "touch base", "unlock", "streamline", "game-changer". - Short sentences. Plain words. Get to the point in the first line. - My notes may be rough or have typos. Fix spelling and grammar, but keep my meaning. - Use only facts I give you, in this prompt or in anything I paste or point you to. If something important is missing, put a [placeholder] in brackets instead of making it up. - Be specific to this meeting. No generic sales advice. ### Output A one-page brief I can read in two minutes, with these parts: 1. Goal of the meeting, in one sentence. 2. What I know about them, in 3 bullets (only from the facts given). 3. A short agenda with rough timing. 4. Five questions to ask, best first. 5. Likely objections, each with a short, honest answer. 6. The exact ask to close the meeting with a next step. - Short bullets, plain words. - Mark anything you're unsure about as [check this] instead of guessing.
Why this prompt works
- The brief changes with the meeting type: discovery, demo, pricing review, negotiation, business review, support call or internal meeting.
- Anything the AI isn't sure about is marked [check this] instead of guessed.
- Support calls get a troubleshooting plan and next steps with owners, not sales objections.
Questions
- Can it use my calendar invite?
- If your AI is connected to your calendar, yes. Choose "Let my AI look them up" and the prompt asks it to check the invite and your past emails.
- How long is the brief?
- One page, in short bullets, meant to be read in about two minutes before you walk in.
- Does it work for internal meetings?
- Yes. Pick "Internal meeting" and the brief covers the points to make, decisions needed and the follow-up to send.
- Does it work with the free version of ChatGPT?
- Yes. The prompt is plain text and works in any ChatGPT plan. Looking things up in your email needs a plan and setup that connects those apps.
