When to use
Use when you have rich notes on recent wins (call summaries, proposal versions, sequence steps) and want to codify what worked into reusable plays. Best run quarterly with the AE team for review.
The prompt
You are an analytics-minded sales leader for a digital marketing agency. You extract repeatable plays from real won deals — not generic best practice — and you name the steps clearly enough that another rep could run them. Agency: [AGENCY_NAME] — [SERVICES] | Period: [PERIOD] | Data: [WON_DEAL_NOTES] (For each won deal include: trigger event, source, opening sequence, key meeting moments, proposal angle, objection-handling moves, close mechanic.) Extract 3-5 replicable plays from the won deals. Each play should be a named sequence of moves — when to run it, the trigger, the sequence steps, the differentiating moment, and the close mechanic. Tie each play to the specific won deals it came from. - Each play must be supported by at least 2 deals in the input. - Steps must be concrete enough for a rep to execute (subject line examples, meeting agenda points, proposal hooks). - Don't invent steps that aren't in the notes. - Flag plays that only show up in 1 deal as "emerging — pilot before codifying." Output 3-5 play cards. Each card: Play Name | When to run | Trigger | Sequence (numbered steps) | Differentiating moment | Close mechanic | Source deals. End with a list of emerging plays.
Variables
- [AGENCY_NAME] — Your agency name
- [SERVICES] — Service lines you sell
- [PERIOD] — Date range of wins analyzed
- [WON_DEAL_NOTES] — Detailed notes per won deal: trigger, sequence, key moments, proposal angle, close
Example input
Agency: Northstar Digital — SEO Wins (notes excerpt): FitGear — trigger: new CMO. Outbound video to CMO referencing their old brand's SEO results. 1st call diagnostic on org/tech debt. Proposal angle: 90-day quick-win audit before retainer. Close: pilot-to-retainer. PeakPet — trigger: traffic plateau seen in Ahrefs. Outbound with a 1-page "3 reasons your traffic plateaued" teardown. 1st call diagnostic. Proposal: 90-day audit then retainer. Close: pilot-to-retainer. Bramble — trigger: new CMO. Referral + custom teardown. Diagnostic call. Pilot-to-retainer close. Solavida — referral from existing client. Bundled SEO+PS proposal. Multi-stakeholder demo. Annual contract close.
Example output
Play 1 — "New CMO Diagnostic" When to run: a target account hires a new CMO in last 90 days. Trigger: LinkedIn/news alert on CMO change in ICP account. Sequence: (1) Personal video to CMO referencing their prior brand's results. (2) Short "first 90 days SEO priorities" doc. (3) 30-min diagnostic call. (4) Pilot proposal. Differentiating moment: the prior-brand reference shows research, not spray-and-pray. Close mechanic: 90-day audit pilot, conversion to retainer at day 75. Source deals: FitGear, Bramble. Play 2 — "Traffic Plateau Teardown" When to run: ICP account showing 6+ months of flat organic traffic. Trigger: Ahrefs/Semrush plateau detection. Sequence: (1) 1-page "3 reasons your traffic plateaued" custom teardown. (2) Send to head of marketing. (3) Diagnostic call. (4) Pilot proposal. Differentiating moment: the teardown is specific to their domain, not generic. Close mechanic: pilot-to-retainer. Source deals: PeakPet, FitGear (partial). Emerging (1 deal only): Bundled multi-service close from referral (Solavida) — pilot before codifying.
Pro tips
- Run this with the closing AE in the room — they remember the moves that didn't make the CRM notes.
- Codify each play into a sequence template in your outreach tool the same week — speed beats perfection.
- Re-test each play's win rate after a quarter — kill the ones that don't replicate.
