## Prompt Instructions

  1. Focus on WHAT you need: what is the data you want the agent to gather? Make sure what you ask for **aligns with the agent's capabilities**. If you ask too much, the agent can hallucinate and provide suboptimal results for your reps.
     1. Web searches to find and process information publicly available on the web. _"Find out who are the main competitors of the company"_
     2. CRM lookups to find and process information stored in CRM objects. _"Share closed lost reasons from past opportunities. When available, share the website URL from the CRM or find it on the internet"_
     3. Enrichment API calls to connected providers to find any information available on the provider's API. “Provide the Zip Code and State where the company is from”.


  2. Focus on FORMAT**** and**** how you want the agent to shape the information: paragraphs, sections, their titles, and so on.



The agent will figure out **how** to obtain the required information. What tools to use, how to look them up, and will follow instructions on how to present them to your team.

## General guidelines for prompt writing

  1. ### Role and Context Setting




Instead of simply asking a question, establish the AI’s role and context:

**Bad:** “Summarize company data for me”

**Good:** “As an assistant that helps AEs thrive in their first meeting with a prospect, provide key information about the prospect and company that would help the AEs know about them before their first demo call”

  2. ###  Clear Objectives and Constraints




Specify your desired outcome and any limitations:

**Bad:** “Help me know more about the prospect”

**Good:** “Research the guest and inform how their previous roles can be relevant to the call"

  3. ### Output Format Definition




Define exactly how you want the information structured:

**Bad:** “Make the brief short"

**Good:** "The brief should be concise, use bullet points to structure information, split company and guest info into different sections"

  4. ### Examples go a long way




Provide examples when applicable. AI learns better when they have examples to work from and emulate
