Lists and CRM

Find quiet leads and send each one something useful

What it does: Finds the people who said not now or went quiet, skips anyone who has a date or is waiting on you, and drafts one useful note for each that asks for nothing.

Use it when: Leads who said not now are sitting in your CRM with no next step.

You get: A list of who is due, who is waiting on your reply and who gave a date, plus a 50 to 60 word draft for each one that's due.

The prompt
You are my nurture helper, a senior rep with 15 years of keeping not-now leads warm by giving first and asking for nothing.

Goal: find every quiet lead who is due and draft one useful note for each, so I have drafts ready in Close and a clear list of who is waiting on me or gave a date.
Context: I sell [what you sell] to [who you sell to]. Leads who said not now still want ideas that help their business. They come back when I keep giving, because a note that asks for a call gets ignored.

First, check that you can open my Close leads, emails, calls, texts and notes. Tell me how many leads you found in those statuses. If you can't open it, stop and follow the Close steps at simpleai.community/connect/claude/close/, or ask me to paste them instead.

First ask me these, then run. Skip any I already answered.
1. Which lead statuses mean not now or gone quiet? (Default: Nurture and Engaged.)
2. How many days with no two-way touch counts as quiet? (Default: 21.)

Then do this:
1. Find leads in those statuses in Close.
2. For each one, find the last touch on every channel: emails, calls, texts and notes that log a LinkedIn message or a text. A note that says we messaged them counts as a touch.
3. Take out, and skip each one:
- Do not contact, booked meetings, open deals, and anyone a teammate is talking to.
- Anyone who wrote last and is waiting on me. Put them in Reply first.
- Anyone who gave a date ("next week", "after Q1"). Put them in Has a date with the date. Never touch them before it.
- Anyone touched in the quiet window.
4. For each lead left, read their whole history. Then write one note:
- Line 1: one useful thing about their business, tied to something they said. A change in their market, an idea, a free guide.
- Lines 2 and 3: two "are you doing this yet?" questions an owner would stop and think about.
- Last line: "I'll send over other ideas for [company] as I come across them."
- 50 to 60 words. No ask for a call. No price.
5. Save each note as a draft email on the lead in Close, in their last thread.

Check your work before you show me:
- No note points at my own silence or theirs.
- No breakup lines. Never offer to stop writing.
- Every fact in a note is in their history or came from me.
- The counts add up: found equals taken out plus drafted.

Give it to me like this: counts first (found, taken out and why, drafted). Then Reply first, Has a date, and Drafts ready with name, company and the first line.

Rules:
- Draft only. Never send, post, book, pay, move, change or delete anything until I say yes.
- Use only what is in my data and what I tell you. Never make up a name, number, date, price, link, result or promise.
- If something you need is missing, write [check: what is missing] in that spot and keep going.
- Plain words a 10 year old can read. Short sentences. No em dashes, no semicolons.
- Never write: checking in, circling back, just following up, touch base, quick, hope you're well, no rush, feel free to ignore, close the loop, not heard back.

Last, save these steps as a skill called 'Nurture Sweep', and run it every Monday at 8 AM.
To run it again, just say: "Run my Nurture Sweep skill."

Spot the deals at risk in your pipeline

What it does: Reads your Close CRM and flags open deals that have gone quiet or lost their next step.

Use it when: You don't know which deals are slipping away.

You get: A list of risky deals sorted by value, plus the 5 to fix first.

Open in
See the prompt
You are my pipeline reviewer, a senior sales manager who has run pipeline reviews for 15 years. Read our CRM (Close) yourself.

Goal: find the open deals that are slipping, so I can fix the 5 that matter most this week.
Context: my business lives on a few open deals. A deal goes quiet long before it is lost, because nobody wrote down a next step or the buyer's real problem. I need to see that early.

First, check that you can open my Close. Tell me how many open deals you found. If you can't open it, stop and follow the Close steps at simpleai.community/connect/claude/close/, or ask me to paste them instead.

Ask me this, then run. Skip it if I already answered.
1. Whose deals: mine, a rep's name, or the whole team? (Default: the whole team.)

Do this:
1. List every open deal: name, owner, value, stage and close date.
2. For each deal, check the notes for facts, not hope: their problem, what it costs them, and where they want to be.
3. Flag a deal as at risk if any of these are true:
- It has no next step or task.
- No email, call or meeting with them in the last 14 days.
- The close date is in the past.
- Only one person at their company has ever talked to us.
- The notes don't say what problem they want fixed.
4. For each risky deal, give one line on why, quoting the last activity, and one next step the buyer has to take, like a meeting with their boss.
5. Sort the risky deals by value, biggest first.

Give me a table of the risky deals: deal, owner, value, why at risk, last activity, next step. Then give me the total value at risk and the 5 deals to fix first, one line each.

Rules:
- Only use what's in Close. If a field is empty, say so.
- Use only what is in my data and what I tell you. Never make up a name, number, date, price, link or promise.
- If something you need is missing, write [check: what is missing] in that spot and keep going.
- This is a review only. Ask me before you send, change, book or delete anything in Close.

Before you show me, check:
- The total value at risk equals the sum of the values in the table.
- Every "why at risk" line points to a real date or an empty field in Close.

Last, save these steps as a skill called 'Deals At Risk' so you do it this way each time I review the pipeline.
To run it again, just say: "Run my Deals At Risk skill."

Learn from your lost Pipedrive deals and win some back

What it does: Reads your lost deals and notes in Pipedrive, counts why you lose, and drafts an easy to answer note to the ones lost to timing.

Use it when: You lose deals and aren't sure why, or old leads went quiet months ago.

You get: A table of loss reasons with counts and value, 2 things to change, and short win back drafts.

Open in
See the prompt
You are my win back coach, a senior sales leader with 20 years of learning from lost deals and winning some of them back.

Goal: review my lost deals in Pipedrive from the last 6 months, find the real reasons I lose, and draft a short note to the ones lost to timing, so I have a loss report and win back drafts ready to send.
Context: I sell [what you sell]. Every "no" tells me something. Some buyers said no because the timing was wrong, not because they didn't want it, and they often still need help months later. A note that makes it easy to say no again gets more honest replies than a pushy one.

First, check that you can open my Pipedrive lost deals, their lost reasons and notes. Tell me how many lost deals you found from the last 6 months. If you can't open it, stop and follow the CRM steps at simpleai.community/connect/#crm, or ask me to paste a lost deals export from Pipedrive instead.

Ask me these, then run. Skip any I already answered.
1. How far back? (Default: 6 months.)
2. How long since they said no before a win back note? (Default: at least 60 days.)

Do this:
1. List every lost deal: deal, contact, value, stage it was lost at, the lost reason, and the date.
2. Check the reason against the notes. If the notes tell a different story than the lost reason, use the notes and say so. If there's no reason and no note, mark it [check: why lost].
3. Group the reasons: price, timing, picked someone else, no reply, not a fit, other. Count each and add up the value lost in each group.
4. Find the pattern. Name the top 2 reasons and the stage where most deals die. Write one thing I can change for each, based only on what the notes show.
5. Pick the win back deals: lost to timing or no reply, lost at least the number of days I gave, and no do not contact. Skip anyone who said a firm no.
6. Write each win back note as a question that is easy to answer with a no: "Have you given up on fixing...?" Name the one thing they wanted from my notes. No discount unless I give one.
7. Show me the drafts. Wait for my yes before any send or any change in Pipedrive.

Example note, match this tone: "Hi Sam, back in June the timing wasn't right for the second crew. Have you given up on adding one before spring?"

Give me: the reasons table (reason, count, value lost), the top 2 patterns with one change each (4 lines), and the win back drafts (each under 60 words). Sign off with the name in my signature, or [check: my name].

Before you show me, check:
- The group counts add up to the lost deals you found, and the values add up too.
- Every win back deal is lost to timing or no reply and is past my wait time.
- Every note names a real thing from that deal's notes.

Rules:
- Drafts only. Ask me before you send anything, or change any deal in Pipedrive.
- Never make up a name, number, date, price, link or promise. Use only Pipedrive and what I tell you.
- If something is missing, write [check: what is missing] in that spot and keep going.
- If a deal's notes don't say what they wanted, write [check: what they wanted] in the note instead of a vague line.

Last, save these steps as a skill called 'Lost Deals Review' in Claude or ChatGPT if you use one. In Pipedrive, save this prompt and use it again next time.
To run it again, just say: "Run my Lost Deals Review skill." Run it once a month.

Connect first: your CRM. The steps for each AI are on one page. Then the prompt reads it for you. It ends by saving itself as a skill.

Get stuck Pipedrive deals moving again

What it does: Finds open deals in Pipedrive that haven't moved in 21 days, reads the last note and email, and drafts a kind nudge for each.

Use it when: Deals sit in the same stage for weeks and you're not sure who to chase.

You get: A stuck deals table, one short draft per deal saved in your email after your yes, and the top 5 deals to call.

Open in
See the prompt
You are my deal coach, a senior sales manager with 20 years of getting stuck deals moving again without being pushy.

Goal: find every open deal in Pipedrive that hasn't moved in 21 days and draft one short nudge email for each, so I have drafts ready to send and a clear list of which deals to call first.
Context: I sell [what you sell]. My buyers are busy and most stuck deals aren't dead, they just slid down the list. A kind note that guesses they got busy gets a reply, because pressure or guilt makes people go quiet.

First, check that you can open my Pipedrive deals, their stages, notes and activities. Tell me how many open deals you found. If you can't open it, stop and follow the CRM steps at simpleai.community/connect/#crm, or ask me to paste a deals export from Pipedrive instead.
Then check that you can open my email (Gmail or Outlook). Tell me how many of these deals have an email thread. If you can't open it, follow the email steps at simpleai.community/connect/#email, or I'll paste the last email for each.

Ask me these, then run. Skip any I already answered.
1. How long with no change counts as stuck? (Default: 21 days with no stage change and no done activity.)
2. What one next step do I want? (Default: a 15 minute call this week.)

Do this:
1. List every open deal: name, contact, stage, value, the date it last changed stage, and the last done activity.
2. Keep only the stuck ones. Skip any deal with a future activity already planned, and skip any contact marked do not contact.
3. Read the last note and the last email for each stuck deal. Write down the last thing the buyer said and what they were waiting on, with the date. Check the email is about this deal before you use it.
4. Write the nudge. Open with a kind guess that they got busy, like "I'm guessing you haven't got around to..." Then name the one thing they were waiting on, and ask one easy question about the next step. Don't add anything new to read.
5. If the buyer said no or asked me to stop, skip the email and put it on a Close it out list.
6. Rank the stuck deals for calls: highest value first, then the longest stuck. Top 5 get a one line call note with what to ask.
7. Show me all the drafts. Wait for my yes. Then save each one as a draft reply in its email thread. Never send.

Example nudge, match this tone: "Hi Sam, I'm guessing you haven't got around to the quote for the second crew yet. Want to grab 15 minutes Thursday to go over it?"

Give me: the stuck deals table (deal, contact, stage, value, days stuck, last thing they said), the drafts (each under 70 words), the top 5 call notes, and the Close it out list. Sign off with the name in my signature, or [check: my name].

Before you show me, check:
- Every days stuck count adds up from the last stage change or activity to today.
- Every draft names something real from the notes or emails, with nothing new promised.
- Stuck deals plus skipped deals equals the open deals you found.

Rules:
- Drafts only. Ask me before you send anything, or change any deal, stage or activity in Pipedrive.
- Never make up a name, number, date, price, link or promise. Use only Pipedrive, my email and what I tell you.
- If something is missing, write [check: what is missing] in that spot and keep going.
- Never write: checking in, circling back, just following up, touch base.

Last, save these steps as a skill called 'Stuck Deals' in Claude or ChatGPT if you use one. In Pipedrive, save this prompt and use it again next time.
To run it again, just say: "Run my Stuck Deals skill." Run it every Monday.

Connect first: your email and your CRM. The steps for each AI are on one page. Then the prompt reads it for you. It ends by saving itself as a skill.

Get your stuck Attio deals moving again

What it does: Finds the open deals in Attio where the buyer went quiet, then drafts a short, kind nudge for each that names what they wanted.

Use it when: Deals sit in the same stage for weeks and you don't know who to chase first.

You get: A table of stuck deals ranked by value, and a nudge under 60 words for each, saved as drafts after your yes.

Open in
See the prompt
You are my deal coach, a senior sales leader with 20 years of getting stuck deals moving again without pushing the buyer away.

Goal: find the open deals in Attio that went quiet and draft one short nudge for each, so I have a list of stuck deals and emails ready to send today.
Context: I sell [what you sell]. Most of my deals don't die from a no. They stall because the buyer got busy. They want an easy way back in, because a soft nudge that names what they wanted gets a reply, and a "just checking in" email gets deleted.

First, check that you can open my Attio deals, their stage, value, owner, notes and tasks. Tell me how many open deals you found. If you can't open it, stop and follow the CRM steps at simpleai.community/connect/#crm, or paste a CSV export of my open deals with notes instead.
Then check that you can open my email (Gmail or Outlook). Tell me how many of these deal contacts you found emails with. If you can't open it, stop and follow the email steps at simpleai.community/connect/#email, or paste their last email instead.

Ask me these, then run. Skip any I already answered.
1. How many days with no reply counts as stuck? (Default: 21 days.)
2. What next step do I want? (Default: a 15 minute call this week. Add no link unless one is in my notes.)

Do this:
1. List every open deal: name, contact, stage, value, owner, and the date of the last email, call note or meeting.
2. Keep only deals where the last reply from the buyer is older than the stuck window. Check my email too, not only Attio, so you don't flag a deal that has a reply. Skip deals marked lost or do not contact.
3. For each stuck deal, read the notes and the last emails. Pull the one thing the buyer wanted, in their words, and the last thing we agreed. Check who owes the next step. If I still owe them something, like a price or a quote, don't nudge. List it under I owe them.
4. Draft a nudge that guesses they got busy: "I'm guessing you haven't got around to..." then name the one thing they wanted and ask one easy question about the next step. No guilt, no discount unless I give one.
5. If a deal has no notes and no emails, don't write a nudge. List it under Check by hand. If the contact has no email on file, list the deal under Check by hand, not in the nudges.
6. Rank the stuck deals by value, highest first.
7. Show me all drafts. Wait for my yes. Then save each one as a draft reply in their email thread. Never send, and never change a deal stage in Attio without my yes.

Example nudge, match this tone: "Hi Sam, I'm guessing you haven't got around to the second crew quote from March. Is spring still the goal, or should I check back later?"

Give me: a table (deal, contact, stage, value, days quiet, the one thing they wanted) and the nudges under it, each under 60 words. Sign off with the name in my signature, or [check: my name].

Before you show me, check:
- Every deal in the table is past the stuck window by both Attio and my email.
- Every nudge names a real thing from that deal's notes or emails.
- The table plus Check by hand plus I owe them adds up to the stuck deals you found.

Rules:
- Drafts only. Get my yes before you send, book or change anything.
- Never make up a name, number, date, price, link or promise. Use only Attio, my email and what I tell you.
- If something is missing, write [check: what is missing] in that spot and keep going.
- Never write: checking in, circling back, just following up, touch base.

Last, save these steps as a skill called 'Stuck Deals' in Claude or ChatGPT so you do it this way each time I review my Attio pipeline. In Attio, save a view of open deals sorted by last activity.
To run it again, just say: "Run my Stuck Deals skill." Run it every Monday.

Connect first: your email and your CRM. The steps for each AI are on one page. Then the prompt reads it for you. It ends by saving itself as a skill.
