The prompt
Write my weekly update to my sales team.
Team and audience: [e.g. 8 AEs and 4 SDRs, plus my manager on copy]
Where we stand: [closed to date vs target, days left in period, forecast, pipeline coverage]
Wins this week: [deals closed, great calls, behaviors worth recognizing, with names]
Lessons or losses worth sharing: [DETAILS]
Priorities for next week: [e.g. specific deals to close, pipeline creation push, CRM cleanup]
Announcements: [product updates, process changes, enablement sessions, deadlines]
Asks: [what I need each person to do, with dates]
Tone: [e.g. upbeat, urgent, steady]
Requirements:
- Open with the number and what it means in one or two sentences. Be honest if we're behind.
- Recognize specific behaviors, not just closed deals, and name people.
- No more than 3 priorities. Each must be concrete enough that a rep knows what to do Monday.
- Put dates and deadlines in bold.
- Keep it under 300 words and scannable on a phone.
- No hype, no pressure tactics, no blaming individuals in a group message.
Return:
1. 3 subject line options.

Use only the numbers I give you.
