# How can a sales team use AI to prepare for calls without spending hours on research?
Draft a one-page brief before each call from your CRM history, past emails and meeting notes, plus the prospect’s public website and announcements. Keep it short: who is attending, what they care about, open questions and a suggested agenda. The salesperson checks the brief and adds judgement, and only approved tools and data sources are used, so customer information stays where it should.
## What this means in practice
- Draw from the CRM, past emails and notes, plus public company information.
- Keep the brief to one page: attendees, context, open questions and an agenda.
- Have the salesperson check every brief before the call.
- Use only approved tools and keep customer data inside them.
- Record what was useful after the call and refine the brief template.
## How Lid Vizion approaches it
We start with the business decision and operating context, define ownership and measurable milestones, then use configuration, integrations, automation, or custom software only where each earns its place.
## See it as a workflow
