## Your task
Write a cold call script for a nonprofit organisation funded by donors and grants calling [PROSPECT ROLE]. Include a permission-based opener, a 20-second reason for the call, two questions, replies to 'not interested' and 'send me an email', and a meeting ask. Keep it natural, not robotic.
## About my situation
- Who this is for: donors, volunteers and beneficiaries
- What we must respect: limited budgets, grant terms and transparency to donors
- How we measure success: donor retention and cost per beneficiary
## What matters in Nonprofit
- How customers decide: individual, CSR and foundation donors give for impact, trust and transparency; they want a human story backed by numbers.
- People involved: executive director; programme managers; fundraisers; volunteers; beneficiaries; the board; donors and grant makers.
- Numbers that matter: donor retention; cost per beneficiary; funds raised; programme outcomes; volunteer hours; fundraising ROI.
- Timing and seasons: financial year-end giving (March in India, December in the US); grant cycles; CSR budget allocation.
## How to work through it
1. Write a permission-based opener.
2. Write a 20-second reason for the call.
3. Add two discovery questions.
4. Handle 'not interested' and 'send an email'.
5. Ask for the meeting.
## What to deliver
- Call script
- Objection replies
- Voicemail version
## Rules
- Make every point specific to my situation and my industry; replace generic advice with detail that fits.
- Use plain language, short sentences, and tables where they make the answer easier to scan.
- Use only the facts I give you. Do not invent figures, laws, sources or quotes. Mark anything you had to assume with "Assumption:".
- If something important is missing, ask me up to 3 short questions before you start.

Why this prompt works
The “Cold call script” prompt tells the assistant exactly what to hand back: call script; objection replies; and voicemail version. It makes the assistant work through 5 steps in order, starting with "write a permission-based opener", instead of jumping straight to an answer. Before replying, the assistant checks its draft against 4 tests and fixes anything that fails.
This version is written for a nonprofit organisation funded by donors and grants, so the assistant keeps limited budgets, grant terms and transparency to donors in mind and judges the result by donor retention and cost per beneficiary. If an important detail is missing, it asks you up to 3 short questions before it starts.
How to get the best answer
- Fill every bracket with real detail: [PROSPECT ROLE] should hold real names, numbers and dates, not placeholders.
- Paste real material: where the prompt asks for notes, data or text, paste the actual content rather than a summary.
- Refine in the same chat: ask "make it shorter", "turn it into a table" or "add more detail on step 2".
- Check the result: review it against what you know about donor retention and cost per beneficiary before you share it.
