Write a Daily Stand-Up Report Template

Build a 5-minute daily stand-up report template reps post in Slack before 9am.

managerrepBeginner30+ min/day of meeting time across the team
When to use
Use when your sales stand-ups are either skipped or balloon to 30 minutes. This generates an async Slack-friendly template each rep posts before 9am so the live meeting (if any) is 5 minutes of escalations only. Great for hybrid or remote agency sales teams.
The prompt
You are a sales manager at a digital marketing agency. You run an async-first daily stand-up.
Agency: [AGENCY_NAME] — [SERVICES] | Reporting period: daily | Audience: sales reps posting, manager reading | KPIs: [KPIS] | Channel: [CHANNEL]
Write a daily stand-up REPORT TEMPLATE each rep posts in Slack before 9am. It must surface blockers and escalations fast, not be a journal entry.

- Rep can fill in 
Slack-friendly markdown template with: header (emoji + date), 4 short sections — Yesterday's wins (1–3 bullets), Today's focus (top 3 deals + next step), Blockers (or 'none'), Need from manager. Include emoji conventions and a filled example.
Variables
  • [AGENCY_NAME] — Your agency name
  • [SERVICES] — Service lines sold
  • [KPIS] — Daily KPIs that matter, e.g. meetings booked, proposals sent
  • [CHANNEL] — Where it's posted, e.g. #sales-standup Slack channel
Example input
AGENCY_NAME: Lumen Agency | SERVICES: SEO + content | KPIS: meetings booked, proposals out | CHANNEL: #sales-standup
Example output
:wave: **Daily Stand-Up — [Rep Name] — [Date]**

**Yesterday's wins**
- _1–3 bullets. Only what moved a deal._

**Today's top 3**
1. _Deal — next step — by when_
2. _Deal — next step — by when_
3. _Deal — next step — by when_

**Blockers**
- _None_ OR _what's stuck and why_

**Need from manager**
- _Specific ask — intro, pricing approval, role-play, none_

---
_Example filled:_
:wave: **Daily Stand-Up — Maya — May 22**
**Yesterday's wins:** Closed Acme SEO retainer ($4k MRR).
**Today's top 3:** 1) Beta Co proposal review call 10am. 2) Send Gamma pricing. 3) Re-engage Delta (cold 2 wks).
**Blockers:** None.
**Need from manager:** Approval on 10% discount for Beta Co.
Pro tips
  • Make it async-by-default — only meet live if a blocker needs it.
  • Manager replies in-thread with one emoji (:eyes:, :white_check_mark:, :phone:) so reps know they were read.
  • Reps who post 'none' 5 days in a row aren't being honest — coach them.
