Sales Systematisation with AI

From Discovery to Deal: Systemise Your Sales Process with AI

19th September 2025

The time between a promising discovery call and a signed proposal is where many consulting opportunities lose momentum. Manual processes like transcribing notes, drafting follow-up emails, and building proposals from scratch consume valuable hours. This administrative drag slows your sales cycle and pulls your focus away from high-value strategic work. Using a structured set of AI prompts can help you reclaim that time, professionalise your process, and close deals faster.

A systemised approach ensures consistency. Every potential client receives the same high level of attention, from the initial follow-up to the final proposal. It removes guesswork and reduces the risk of critical details from the discovery call being lost in translation. This frees you to concentrate on understanding the client’s problem and building a relationship, rather than on managing the paperwork.

Ignoring this opportunity means continuing to lose time to repetitive tasks. Inconsistent follow-ups can make you appear disorganised, and proposals that fail to connect directly back to the discovery conversation are less likely to succeed. The reward for systemising is a faster, more professional sales cycle. You can move qualified leads forward with confidence, knowing your communications are sharp, relevant, and aligned with your service offerings. This creates a repeatable engine for growth.

Steps to Build into Your Practice

Here are five AI prompts that create a clear workflow from initial conversation to final proposal.

1. Instantly Structure Your Discovery Notes Use the Discovery-to-Brief Converter prompt to turn raw meeting notes into a concise strategic brief. It extracts core themes, goals, and challenges, giving you a clear, scannable document to work from. This saves you from deciphering messy notes and ensures you capture the most critical information.

2. Draft a Thoughtful Follow-up Use the Gentle Discovery Follow-up Drafter to create a professional, non-pushy email. This prompt helps you reflect on the client’s situation and connect it to your services without a hard sell. It can also suggest a relevant article or resource from your knowledge base, adding immediate value and positioning you as a helpful expert.

3. Map Client Needs to Your Services Use the Post Discovery Service Suggestions prompt for internal planning. It takes the client’s challenges and maps them against your service catalogue. The output gives you a clear guide on which services to pitch, why they are relevant, and the key messages to use, ensuring your proposal is perfectly targeted.

4. Define Your Next Actions Use the Post Discovery Positioning prompt to create a clear internal action plan. This tool helps you think through the immediate next steps required to move the opportunity forward. It provides a prioritised list of actions, covering both strategic positioning and operational tasks.

5. Build a Professional Proposal, Fast Use the Proposal Builder Pro prompt to generate a complete, eight-section proposal. By feeding it your client brief and service details, it produces a structured document covering the project overview, goals, metrics, and terms. This ensures every proposal is comprehensive, consistent, and directly tied to the discovery findings.
