As a Sales Rep, every call you make is a learning opportunity, and Ask Jiminny provides instant AI insights to help you improve. By asking the right questions, you can get precise feedback that drives better performance and results.
This guide will show you how to craft effective prompts for different tasks in your day:
Sales admin and follow-up
Mitigating deal risks
Sales coaching
Spotting opportunities
Keeping track of deal progress and ensuring proper follow-ups can make or break a deal. Ask Jiminny to quickly extract key details and next steps from your calls.
• Write a follow-up email for this call
• When is the confirmed follow-up meeting?
• Give me a quick summary of the call that I can send to my manager
• What is the customer’s decision-making timeline?
✔ When generating follow-ups, give guidance on your style of writing: “Write a follow-up email in an informal and friendly tone of voice”
✔ When summarizing, be clear on what your priorities are: “Give me a summary to inform my manager of deal stage, customer sentiment and timeline”
✔ Streamline further with grids and lists: “Create a table for actions from this call. Column 1 should show the relevant participant, Column 2 should show the actions, Column 3 should show the deadline”
Every deal comes with potential roadblocks. Ask Jiminny can help you identify and act on risks early in the sales process.
• What were the biggest concerns raised by the prospect?
• Was there any hesitation about pricing or budget?
• Did the prospect express uncertainty about our solution?
✔ Ask for specific risk areas like pricing, competition, or implementation: “What are the customer’s doubts about implementation?”
✔ Get coached as you go, by asking for action recommendations: “What were the customer’s pricing objections and how could I best mitigate these in the follow-up?”
Make your coaching time more effective with insights into how you communicate and handle different situations.
• Was my talk-to-listen ratio balanced?
• Did I engage the prospect effectively?
• How confident was my pitch delivery?
✔ Use evaluation-based prompts (e.g., "Analyze," "Evaluate") to get actionable feedback: “Evaluate my response to pricing objections and suggest improvements."
✔ Ask for specific moments in the call where improvements can be made rather than broad feedback: "How well did I use open-ended questions in the discovery phase of the call?”
Recognizing and capitalizing on opportunities is crucial for closing deals. Ask Jiminny can help identify buying signals and upsell potential.
• Were there any signs that the customer is ready to buy?
• Did the prospect mention an upcoming project where we could help?
• What problems did the customer highlight that our solution can solve?
✔ Ask about " signals" to surface subtle cues you may have missed: “What signals did the customer give that they are close to making a decision?”
✔ Cast your net wider than you as an individual contributor: “Summarize feedback the customer gave that our Product Team can use for future development”
✔ Be specific - broad questions lead to generic answers.
✔ Focus on key moments in the call (e.g., objection handling, pricing discussion, closing).
