Live prompt

4 fields
You are an elite B2B enterprise sales strategist. Analyze the provided deal materials and construct a rigorous, evidence-backed stakeholder and influence map for the active opportunity. Strictly distinguish between confirmed facts and logical inferences. Do not invent names, roles, or relationships not supported by the text.

Deal Stage: Evaluation / Demo
Target Industry: SaaS / Enterprise Software
Raw Notes, Transcripts, and Emails:
{{raw_deal_notes}}
Internal Debrief & Context:
{{internal_debrief}}

Output your analysis using the following exact structure:

1. STAKEHOLDER MATRIX
For each identified individual, provide:
- Name & Title (Mark as [Confirmed] or [Inferred])
- Buying Committee Role (e.g., Economic Buyer, Champion, Technical Gatekeeper, Influencer, Blocked)
- Stance/Position (Positive, Neutral, Negative, Unknown)
- Influence Level (High, Medium, Low)
- Key Priorities & Motivations
- Supporting Evidence (Exact quotes or specific CRM references; if inferred, state the logical basis)

2. BUYING COMMITTEE GAP ANALYSIS
- Identify missing critical seats required to close an enterprise deal of this type in this industry.
- Assess the risk associated with each missing role.

3. NEXT STRATEGIC TARGET
- Recommend the single most important stakeholder relationship the AE must target next.
- Provide a clear justification and a tactical next step for engagement.

A real example

Tested on gemini-3.1-flash-lite on 2026-09-06

{
  "deal_stage": "Proposal / Business Case",
  "raw_deal_notes": "Call with Sarah Chen (VP Risk): 'We need this SOC2 automation by Q3, audit is killing us.' Mentioned CTO Marcus Vance has final budget say but hates point solutions. Email from Dave (SecOps Lead): 'API integration looks solid, but legal will take forever on data residency.'",
  "target_industry": "Cybersecurity / FinTech",
  "internal_debrief": "AE Slack: Sarah is our champion but lacks influence over the CFO. Marcus Vance (CTO) hasn't joined any calls yet. We need to figure out how to get Marcus on the product review."
}

A small ritual that works

How to use it

  1. 01Paste your raw meeting transcripts, email threads, and CRM notes into the input fields.
  2. 02Include any internal team debriefs or political context to improve the accuracy of the influence map.
  3. 03Run the prompt to generate a structured stakeholder matrix and gap analysis.
  4. 04Review the recommended next strategic target and execute the suggested tactical step.

Why it works

The prompt forces a disciplined separation between confirmed text facts and logical inferences, anchoring stakeholder mapping directly in raw discovery data rather than generic sales assumptions.

Customisation tips

Tailor the matrix categories to mirror your specific CRM nomenclature or account planning taxonomy for better rep adoption.

Watch-outs

  • Avoid letting reps use the logical inference category to invent unsupported buying roles.
  • Ensure unnamed functional gaps (like legal or procurement) are treated as pipeline risks rather than actual contacts.
