Prompt
Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.
Every Monday at [7 AM], review my pipeline in [CRM/sheet] and my recent email and calls. Put each prospect in one bucket: KEEP (active, good fit), HOLD (fit but stalled) or DQ (not a fit), with a one-line reason. List the 3 best candidates to become design partners and draft a short note to each. Don't send anything or change the CRM without my OK.
