Map the buying committee and plan multithreading on a deal
A stakeholder map showing each person's role, stance, and influence, with a plan to reach the ones you're missing.
The prompt
Help me map the buying committee on a deal and plan how to multithread it.
Deal: [WHAT THEY'RE BUYING, SIZE, STAGE]
People I know about: [NAME/TITLE - what I know about each: engagement, stance, what they care about]
Org info: [DEPARTMENTS INVOLVED, REPORTING LINES IF KNOWN]
My current main contact: [NAME/ROLE]
For each known stakeholder, classify: role in the decision (economic buyer, champion, technical evaluator, user, procurement, legal, blocker, influencer), stance (supporter / neutral / skeptic / unknown), influence (high/medium/low), and what they personally need to say yes.
Then identify roles that are typically involved in a purchase like this but are missing from my map.
Return:
1. A stakeholder table: Name | Title | Decision role | Stance | Influence | What they need | Last contact.
2. Gaps: missing roles and the risk each creates.
3. A multithreading plan: who to reach next, through whom, and with what message or reason.
4. A short, natural message asking my main contact to introduce me to one missing stakeholder.
Mark anything you are inferring rather than reading from my notes as [ASSUMPTION].
Highlighted [brackets] are blanks to replace with your own details.

How this prompt is built
This prompt follows the RTF structure (Role, Task, Format). RTF tells the model who to be, what to do and what shape the answer should take. It is the quickest structure that still gives noticeably better results than a bare request.
