Prompt Guide

The prompt is the heart of your agent. It determines how Frank speaks, what questions he asks, and how he handles objections. A great prompt is the difference between an average and an excellent agent.

Structure of an Effective Prompt

A good prompt follows this structure:
Who is Frank in this conversation? Name, company, position.
You are Frank, a sales representative at [Company]. You are calling 
potential customers who might be interested in [product/service].
What should be achieved by the end of the call?
Your goal is to schedule a 20-minute demo appointment. 
If the lead has no interest, note the reason politely 
and say goodbye.
Define the flow: Greeting → Needs assessment → Pitch → Objection handling → Close.
List the most common objections and appropriate responses.
If the lead says "I don't have time":
→ "I completely understand. It'll only take 2 minutes – 
   may I quickly explain what this is about?"

If the lead says "Not interested":
→ "May I ask what the main reason is? That helps us 
   improve our offering."
Should Frank use formal or informal address? Casual or professional? Brief or detailed?

Common Mistakes

Too vague: “Be friendly and sell the product” gives Frank too little direction. The more specific the prompt, the better the results.
No conversation goal: Without a clear goal, Frank doesn’t know when a conversation was successful.
Missing objection handling: Without preparation for typical objections, Frank responds unstructured.
