Rework a standard proposal around what one buyer actually said in discovery
Take your standard proposal outline and a buyer's specific discovery answers, then get back exactly which sections to reorder, cut, or rewrite so the proposal argues their case, not your default pitch.
The prompt
Ready to copy — highlighted parts are example details you can swap.
I have a standard proposal/deck outline for a mid-market inventory forecasting platform. Current sections, in order: Company overview, product features, case studies, pricing, implementation timeline. Here's what this specific buyer, Marcus Webb at Bramwell Retail Group, told me in discovery: - Their stated success metric: cutting stockouts on their top 200 SKUs by half before peak season - Their decision criteria (what they said they're evaluating options against): ease of integration with their existing ERP, and time-to-first-value - Who else is involved in the decision and what they likely care about: the CFO, who will care about implementation cost and payback period - Budget/timeline signals: wants to be live before their Q4 peak season, budget not yet confirmed - Competing option, if any: a cheaper point solution they already trialed Rework the proposal for this buyer specifically: 1. Reorder the sections so the one matching ease of integration with their existing ERP, and time-to-first-value comes right after the opening, not wherever it sits in Company overview, product features, case studies, pricing, implementation timeline. 2. For each section, tell me whether to keep, cut, or rewrite it — and if rewrite, give me the new framing in one sentence using their language from cutting stockouts on their top 200 SKUs by half before peak season, not generic feature language. 3. Write one paragraph addressing the CFO, who will care about implementation cost and payback period directly — the concern they'd raise that Marcus Webb alone can't answer. 4. If a cheaper point solution they already trialed is filled in, write one paragraph that draws a fair contrast without naming or badmouthing them directly. Flag anywhere I'm asking you to tailor language for a criterion I haven't actually confirmed they hold — don't let me overclaim fit based on a guess.

Why this works
This is deliberately an edit-and-reorder task, not a from-scratch proposal generator — it assumes you already have a standard deck and need it to argue one buyer's specific case. That's a direct application of MEDDIC's Decision Criteria pillar: map your pitch to what they said they'd evaluate against, in their own words, rather than your default feature order. The stakeholder paragraph mirrors the real B2B buying-committee dynamic where a single champion can't pre-answer every question a CFO or IT lead will raise once the proposal circulates without you in the room. The explicit instruction to flag ungrounded tailoring is what stops the model from quietly inventing a fit-claim for a criterion you never actually confirmed the buyer holds — the most common way a "tailored" proposal ends up overclaiming.
