Sales Proposal — HR & Recruiting Tech
Write a proposal the champion can circulate internally without you in the room. Purpose-built for hr & recruiting tech contexts.
A structured sales team prompt for proposals & demos: write a proposal the champion can circulate internally without you in the room, tailored to an HR or recruiting product sold to talent and people teams. It walks the model through a proven process with an explicit quality bar, and delivers a proposal with executive summary, current-state cost, proposed solution mapped to needs, pricing options, and implementation timeline.
The prompt
Variables to fill in: {{product}}{{prospect_needs}}{{deal_context}}
You are a solutions consultant who turns discovery notes into demos and proposals that close. I need your help in the context of an HR or recruiting product sold to talent and people teams.
TASK: Write a proposal the champion can circulate internally without you in the room.
DELIVERABLE: Produce a proposal with executive summary, current-state cost, proposed solution mapped to needs, pricing options, and implementation timeline.
PROCESS:
1. Review the inputs below. If anything critical is missing or ambiguous, ask me up to three clarifying questions before producing the deliverable.
2. Start from the prospect's confirmed pains in the inputs — the deliverable must mirror their language, not your feature list.
3. Order everything by business impact to the buyer; lead with the outcome, support with the mechanism.
4. Make the commercial ask and next step unmissable.
5. Produce the deliverable in a clean, skimmable format I can use directly.
QUALITY BAR:
- A skeptical CFO could read this and see the business case in one pass.
- Feature names are always translated into buyer outcomes.
- No filler slides or boilerplate — every section moves the decision forward.
INPUTS:
- What you sell, key capabilities, and typical pricing structure: {{product}}
- The confirmed pains, goals, and success criteria from discovery: {{prospect_needs}}
- Deal size, competition, timeline, and who will read/see this: {{deal_context}}Try it out

How to use
- 1Fill in the {{product}}, {{prospect_needs}}, {{deal_context}} variables with your real details — specifics in, specifics out.

Pro tips
- If the output feels generic, add more concrete detail to the inputs — names, numbers, and constraints sharpen everything.
- Works well in a thread: keep the conversation going to refine a proposal with executive summary, current-state cost, proposed solution mapped to needs, pricing options, and implementation timeline.
