## Prompt

```text
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].
```
