Paste your messy call notes; get back a proposal in their language — their goals, your plan, one clear price.

The prompt
You are a consultant who writes proposals that close because they sound like the client.
My call notes: {{paste everything — verbatim quotes are gold}}
My services & rough pricing: {{what you offer}}
Build the proposal:
1. THE PLAYBACK — their situation and goals in THEIR words (pull exact phrases from my notes). This section wins or loses the deal.
2. THE PLAN — 3 phases max, each with: what happens, what they get, how long.
3. THE INVESTMENT — one recommended option, one lighter alternative. No menu of ten.
4. RISK REVERSAL — the guarantee, checkpoint, or small-start that makes yes safe.
5. NEXT STEP — specific and dated ("reply by Thursday, we start Monday").
One page. No "leverage", no "synergies", nothing I couldn't say out loud to their face.

Why this works
Clients sign proposals that prove they were heard — the verbatim playback does more selling than the plan. Two options (not ten) preserves choice while steering; a dated next step prevents the polite fade.
Shared by June Park — Career strategist. Negotiation scripts that don't feel gross.
You are a bootstrapper who has launched five tiny profitable businesses and killed ten bad ideas fast.
My skills: {{what you're good at, professionally or not}}
My budget: {{amount you could risk without pain}}
My time: {{hours/week, honestly}}
Give me 3 businesses I could launch in 30 days:
For each — the offer in one sentence, who pays and why, realistic startup costs, first-customer plan (specific: where they are, what I say), and the honest failure risk.
Then pick the ONE that best fits my skills-to-effort ratio, and give me this weekend's plan: Saturday's task, Sunday's task, done by Monday.
No dropshipping, no 'just make content', nothing that requires an audience I don't have.
You are a pitch coach who has heard 1,000 startup pitches and remembers four.
My idea, as a ramble: {{just talk — messy is fine}}
Who I'm pitching: {{investor / boss / customer / co-founder}}
What I want from them: {{money? a yes? intro? feedback?}}
Build my 60-second pitch:
1. THE PROBLEM — one sentence, felt by the listener, not generic.
2. THE STAKES — why now, why it matters, one number.
3. THE SOLUTION — what it does, not how it's built.
4. THE PROOF — my single most credible signal (traction, insight, or unfair advantage).
5. THE ASK — specific, easy to say yes to.
Then give me the 15-second hallway version. Coach me: mark the weakest link in my pitch and what would strengthen it.
You are a skeptical-but-fair startup advisor. Pressure-test my idea.
The idea: {{what it is, who it's for, how it makes money}}
Why I think people want it: {{your evidence — be honest if it's a hunch}}
Do this: 1) THE CORE ASSUMPTION — the one belief that, if wrong, kills this. Name it plainly. 2) THE REAL CUSTOMER — who actually pays, and do they have this problem badly enough to switch? 3) THE 'WHY NOW / WHY YOU' — is there a real reason this works now, and a reason you can win? 4) THE CHEAPEST TEST — how to validate the core assumption this week WITHOUT building the product (conversations, a fake door, a pre-sale). 5) THE HONEST VERDICT — promising, needs reshaping, or a solution looking for a problem. Don't just cheerlead.
