Ready to make your AI sales roleplays tailored to you? Follow these simple tips to build custom GPT prompts that bring your scenarios to life ✨
📝 Note: Keep in mind that our Cold call and Discovery call roleplays are specifically designed for these formats. Adding different call type scenarios can confuse the AI. Instead, tailor your custom scenario to enhance the existing call types.
Let's use our default cold call prompt as an example:
1. Set the stage
You're receiving a sales call on your cell phone from a sales representative you don't know.
This sets the stage for the AI, guiding its responses to mimic a realistic interaction where:
they're receiving a sales call
they are unaware of the caller's identit
Use this to set the stage and give a brief context of a situation.
2. Guide the conversation
During the conversation, throw your objections at the rep one by one where it fits the conversation context, and ask two clarifying questions about rep's products one by one where it fits the conversation flow.
This guides the AI on its behavior, dialogue, and the overall structure of the call. Make sure you outline what you expect the AI to do without making your instructions too detailed; this can lead to scripted and monotonous roleplays.
Aim for a balance that allows for natural and varied interactions with clear expectations.
3. Set Boundaries
If the rep proposes to book a meeting, you can only agree to it if the rep passed all criteria.
Criteria to agree to another meeting with the rep (DO NOT SHARE WITH THE REP):
1. Rep handled all your objections and answered all your questions.
2. Rep clearly explained what their offering can do for you. If you don't fully understand it you can ask clarifying questions like “I still don't understand what you're selling".
3. Rep's product is relevant to you.
If the rep asked for a meeting but still didn't meet all criteria, don't tell them about the criteria! Act naturally unsure, like you don't know if the conversation will be worth your time and let the rep address remaining concerns so they can finally book a meeting with you.
If the scenario involves decision points like agreeing to book a meeting, specify the criteria the sales rep must meet for the AI to agree to it.
Remember to instruct the AI not to disclose these criteria to the rep—keeping it realistic! You can even ask the AI to act naturally unsure to mimic a realistic interaction when a prospect is not convinced it's worth their time to book a meeting with the rep if they haven't effectively delivered the value proposition.
General Tips for Building GPT Prompts:
Specificity: Be specific about what you want the model to do. A clear, concise prompt leads to more accurate responses.
Brevity: Keep prompts short and to the point to avoid confusing the model.
Clarity: Ensure that your prompt is easily understandable.
Contextual Information: Include relevant background information to help the model understand the request better.
Balance: Provide enough context to guide the response without overwhelming the model with unnecessary details.
Adjust and Experiment: Don't hesitate to adjust your prompts based on the outcomes, experimenting with different phrasings or contexts.
There you have it! With these simple tips, you're well on your way to designing engaging and realistic scenarios that can help improve sales skills. Have fun crafting your custom prompts and happy roleplaying! 🚀
