Sales call preparation brief
Before each booked call, assemble a one-page brief from the CRM, the inquiry and public company information, so the seller starts the call prepared.
Where it starts
The trigger.
A discovery or sales call is booked on the calendar.
How it runs today
- Sellers skim scattered notes minutes before the call.
- Details from the first inquiry are lost by the time of the call.
- Preparation quality depends on who takes the call.
The workflow
Four bounded steps.
Each step has an owner and a stop rule.
- 01 / Gather
Pull the inquiry, CRM history and approved public information about the company.
- 02 / Summarize
Draft a one-page brief: context, likely needs, open questions and relevant examples.
- 03 / Deliver
Send the brief to the seller ahead of the call.
- 04 / Update
After the call, the seller’s notes update the CRM record.
Where people stay in control
Approval points.
- The seller reviews and corrects the brief before relying on it.
- Only approved sources are used; nothing is sent to the prospect.
How we would measure it
Against a baseline.
Measured before and after, on the same work.
Calls with a brief delivered in time.
Seller rating of brief usefulness.
Time spent preparing per call.
