In 2023, ChatGPT and artificial intelligence have taken center stage in the business world. While marketing, customer service, and production teams are flooded with AI tips and hacks, sales teams are surprisingly underserved, especially when it comes to strategies specifically tailored to ChatGPT.
But here’s the truth: when used strategically, ChatGPT can boost your team’s sales performance by up to 88%. How? By taking over routine, time-consuming admin tasks, freeing up sales reps to focus on what really matters, spending more time with customers.
Let’s be clear: ChatGPT won’t replace your sales team. Building trust, having meaningful conversations, and closing deals still requires human connection. But AI is an invaluable support tool for the behind-the-scenes work that clogs up a sales rep’s day.
Here are five powerful prompts that make your sales process faster, smarter, and more efficient.
1. Summarize Email Threads in Seconds
Yes, we all know ChatGPT can summarize text, but have you used it to recap long email threads? No more scrolling through back-and-forth messages. This is a game-changer when preparing for follow-ups or project briefings.

Prompt to copy:
Please summarize the key points of this email exchange and highlight [specific topic/information] for me.
2. Generate Leads - Without Paying for Lists
Forget overpriced Excel spreadsheets. ChatGPT can provide highly relevant leads if you give it the right context. And the best part? It’s free.

Prompt to copy:

3. Write Visit Reports Instantly
Every sales rep dreams of writing visit reports in seconds. With ChatGPT, just input a few details from your meeting, and you’ll have a polished summary ready to go.

Prompt to copy:
Create a visit report for my meeting with [Customer Name and Contact Person] on [Date and Time]. The visit included: [Key Info 1], [Key Info 2], [Key Info 3]. Please format it as body text in professional tone.
4. Create Offers Without the Hassle
Creating offers is time-consuming and pulls your reps away from revenue-driving activities. Let ChatGPT handle the first draft, fast and on-brand.

Prompt to copy:
The customer [Customer Name] is interested in [Product/Service]. Please draft a sales offer including the following: [Detail 1], [Detail 2], [Detail 3].
