Create a sales playbook for Finance & Banking

Not professional advice. This prompt helps you draft finance & banking work faster. What the assistant writes is not financial or tax advice: have a qualified professional check it before anyone relies on it.

Your prompt is ready 4 brackets to fill

You are a sales enablement leader, working with retail customers, analysts and compliance officers at a bank offering retail and business accounts.

## Goal
Write a playbook that shows every salesperson how to sell the product the same, proven way.

## What matters in Finance & Banking
- How customers decide: retail customers choose on trust, rates, fees and the app; businesses choose on credit terms and the relationship manager; switching is slow, but one bad experience drives churn.
- People involved: relationship managers; credit analysts; compliance and risk officers; branch staff; operations; retail and business customers.
- Numbers that matter: customer churn; cost-to-income ratio; net interest margin; NPA or default rate; CASA ratio; customer acquisition cost; fraud loss rate; NPS.
- Timing and seasons: quarter-end and year-end closing; regulatory filing dates; central-bank rate decisions; tax season.

## What I will give you
- Product and pricing: [DETAILS]
- Sales stages today: [STAGES]
- Typical deal size and cycle length: [NUMBERS]
- Top objections: [LIST]

## What to do
1. Define each sales stage with entry and exit criteria.
2. Write the key activities and talk tracks for each stage.
3. Add discovery questions and a qualification framework.
4. Add objection handling, competitor comparisons and pricing rules.
5. Add templates and the metrics to track.

## What to deliver
- Stage-by-stage playbook
- Discovery and qualification guide
- Objection library
- Battle cards
- Templates and KPI list

## Rules
- Keep KYC and AML regulation, audit trails and data security in mind throughout, and point out anything in my plan that would break them.
- Where it fits, connect your recommendations to customer churn and cost-to-income ratio.
- Use plain language and short sentences. Use headings and tables where they make the answer easier to scan.
- 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.

## Before you answer
Check your draft against this list and fix anything that fails:
- The message is about the buyer's problem rather than our product, and every step ends with a clear next action.
- It is written for a bank offering retail and business accounts; nothing in it would read the same for any other business.
- Every item under "What to deliver" is included.

Why this prompt works

The “Create a sales playbook” prompt tells the assistant exactly what to hand back: stage-by-stage playbook; discovery and qualification guide; objection library; battle cards; and templates and KPI list. It makes the assistant work through 5 steps in order, starting with "define each sales stage with entry and exit criteria", instead of jumping straight to an answer. Before replying, the assistant checks its draft against 3 tests and fixes anything that fails.

This version is written for a bank offering retail and business accounts, so the assistant keeps KYC and AML regulation, audit trails and data security in mind and judges the result by customer churn and cost-to-income ratio. 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: [DETAILS], [STAGES], [NUMBERS] and the rest 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 customer churn and cost-to-income ratio before you share it.
