Not a theory lesson. More like field notes from someone who hated “winging it” on sales calls and built a lane around it.
You’re not selling AI. You’re selling “no more winging it on calls”.
Think about what “research” looks like for most founders and small sales teams:
- They Google the company name, skim the homepage, then find nothing useful for conversations.
- They open LinkedIn, read the headline, maybe one post, and call that “preparation”.
- They promise themselves they’ll research properly “next week” when things are calmer. That week never comes.
I’ve done this myself. Tabs everywhere, Slack pinging, a calendar full of calls, and no time to pull a real story
together. So the call starts with awkward small talk and generic discovery questions.
The crazy part? These teams have all the information they need on the open web. They just don’t have time or a simple lane.
- “Our close rate is okay, but calls feel chaotic.” → No structured call prep.
- “I know I should personalize, but I’m drowning.” → No simple system to turn raw research into talking points.
- “Every follow‑up sounds the same.” → No easy way to connect emails to what was said on the call.
- “New reps take months to ramp.” → No repeatable sales brief format they can lean on.
Your offer sits exactly here. You’re not trying to automate the whole sales job. You’re taking the most ignored but high‑leverage piece—pre‑call research and structure—and making it easy to outsource.
Perplexity + Intuo AI: keep the stack stupid‑simple
You only need these two tools plus your usual docs/spreadsheets. The moment you start stacking five platforms, your own workflow collapses and you’ll never sell this to anyone else.
You’ll use Perplexity like a researcher who doesn’t get tired:
- Summarize what a company actually does in plain language.
- Spot recent news, product launches, or hiring moves that shape the conversation.
- Understand the prospect’s role, background, and likely pressures.
- Collect 3–5 “conversation hooks” that don’t sound like a script.
You’ll paste Perplexity’s best bits into your brief template, not send raw chat logs to clients.
Intuo AI is your “briefing room”. Each prospect gets a clean 1‑pager:
- Who they are and what their company cares about.
- What to say in the first 3 minutes of the call.
- Questions to ask that don’t sound copy‑pasted.
- Follow‑up angles and language that feel natural.
Some of this you’ll write yourself. Some you’ll refine with Intuo’s AI features. The point isn’t the tool; it’s that every brief looks familiar to your client, every time.
Package the skill: “Sales Brief Studio” instead of “AI prompts for sales”
Think in terms of a very specific, very boring‑sounding outcome:
Working name: AI Sales Brief Studio
Who it’s for:
- Solo founders doing their own outbound and demos.
- 2–10 person B2B sales teams with no dedicated sales ops.
- Agencies where the owner is still joining most client calls.
What you actually deliver:
- A 1‑page brief before every important call, in a consistent layout.
- Personalized talking points and questions (not scripts).
- Suggested follow‑up angles right after the call.
- A simple way to request briefs (form, spreadsheet, or Slack pattern).
From blank browser to your first 5 paid briefs (step‑by‑step)
Here’s the part most “AI stack” articles skip: the actual click‑by‑click flow you’ll use. Follow this; adapt it once you’ve done a few runs.
Don’t start with “everyone who sells anything”. Pick one narrow lane where the context repeats:
- Example: B2B SaaS founders selling to HR teams.
- Example: Marketing agencies pitching e‑commerce brands.
- Example: Consultants selling to series A/series B startups.
Your brain (and your prompts) get sharper when the audience repeats. It also makes your offer easier to explain: “I do sales briefs for small HR tech founders.” lands better than “I help with AI for sales.”
Before you touch Perplexity or Intuo, sketch the brief you wish you’d had on your own calls. Open a blank doc (Google Docs, Notion, whatever) and draft something like:
[Prospect Sales Brief – V1]
1) Snapshot (3 bullets)
- What this company does
- What's likely top of mind for them
- Why this call matters
2) Person
- Role & responsibilities
- What they seem to care about (from posts / interviews / job history)
3) Current situation
- Signals from news / hiring / product changes
- Risks or pressures they might be under
4) Conversation angles
- 3 opening lines that don't sound robotic
- 3–5 questions you must ask
5) Fit & follow‑up ideas
- Where your offer probably fits (1–2 bullets)
- 2–3 follow‑up email angles if the call goes well
This becomes the backbone you’ll later recreate inside Intuo AI. For now, keep it in a simple doc so you can tweak it fast.
Pick one target company and one person as a test. Open Perplexity and start with something like:
Query idea 1:
"Explain what [Company] actually does in simple language.
Include who their customers are, what problems they solve,
and 3 specific details that might matter to a salesperson
selling [your type of product]."
Query idea 2:
"What has changed recently for [Company] in the last 6–12 months?
Look for funding, launches, leadership changes, layoffs, or partnerships.
Summarize in bullet points."
Query idea 3:
"Based on public info, what does the [Title of Prospect] at [Company]
likely care about day‑to‑day? Answer in practical, non‑fluffy terms."
Don’t copy everything. Grab the bits that would actually change how you talk:
- Concrete numbers (“hiring 30 engineers”, “just expanded to Germany”).
- Specific moves (“launched freemium tier”, “pivoted from B2C to B2B”).
- Signals of pain (“cut marketing spend”, “closing physical stores”).
Now bring Intuo AI into the picture. Log in, create a new brief (or whatever their equivalent of a “record” is), and paste your rough bullets into the relevant sections.
Where Intuo’s AI features can help is polishing the bits your client will actually read, for example:
"Take these rough research bullets about [Company] and [Person].
Reshape them into:
1) A 3-bullet 'Snapshot' section (plain English, no jargon)
2) 3 possible opening lines I can use to start the call naturally
3) 5 discovery questions focused on [specific outcome your client sells]
Keep the tone simple and conversational. Avoid buzzwords."
Edit the output. Remove anything that feels like “AI voice”. Add 1–2 lines from your own experience. You want your briefs to feel like a sharp human wrote them, not a chatbot.
One mistake I made early: letting people “just DM me” with random links for research. That doesn’t scale beyond three clients.
Even if you’re solo, pick one of these:
- A simple Google Sheet with columns: Company URL, Person LinkedIn, Call Date, Notes.
- A short form (Typeform, Tally, etc.) that drops answers into a sheet.
- A fixed Slack/Teams format: “BRIEF REQUEST: [Date] [Time] [Company URL] [Person URL] [Focus of call]”.
Your promise can be as simple as: “Any request sent at least 24 hours before the call gets a brief in your inbox.” Easy to understand, easy to keep.
What do you charge for something like this? (Realistic ranges)
This isn’t a “$10k in a weekend” kind of thing. It’s a focused service that can realistically become a few hundred to a couple of thousand dollars a month across a handful of clients, if you do solid work and keep the lane narrow.
| Package | What they get | Who it suits | Example price (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter Pack (10 briefs) | You deliver 10 full prospect briefs over 3–4 weeks. Includes the template, a short loom/video walkthrough, and a simple request process. | Solo founders wanting to test the idea of “always prepared” calls without a subscription. | Roughly $150–$350 one‑time |
| Ongoing Call Prep (per month) | A fixed number of briefs each month (for example, up to 12). 24‑hour turnaround on weekdays. Quick tweaks after calls for follow‑up ideas. | Small sales teams or agencies with a steady stream of demos. | Around $250–$700 per month, depending on volume and complexity |
| Team Enablement Sprint (2–3 weeks) | You design their brief template, create 5–10 example briefs, show the team how to use Perplexity + Intuo, and leave them with a mini playbook. | Teams who prefer to keep the work in‑house but want your system. | Around $400–$1,000 one‑time, depending on team size and involvement |
These are ballpark numbers. Your rates will shift with your experience, niche, and how deep you go. The point is to charge for clarity and reduced stress before calls, not for “hours spent inside AI tools”.
Who actually buys this, and where you’ll bump into them
You’re not looking for “AI enthusiasts”. You’re looking for people who say things like:
- “I jump from one call to the next; I barely know who I’m talking to.”
- “We keep saying we’ll tighten discovery questions, but no one has time.”
- “I wish someone would just hand me a one‑pager before each demo.”
Common places to find them:
- Founder communities (Slack / Discord / private groups).
- Small sales teams on LinkedIn posting about outbound, demos, or burnout.
- Agency owners moaning about “too many calls, not enough prep”.
Subject: Quick win for your next 10 sales calls
Hey [Name],
I saw you’re [running sales / doing demos] for [company].
A lot of founders and small teams I work with have the same pattern:
back-to-back calls, 10+ tabs open, and not much time to prep.
I run a small “Sales Brief Studio” where I:
- research your prospect using Perplexity
- turn it into a 1-page brief in Intuo (who they are, what changed, how to open)
- and send it to you before the call
Result: you show up knowing what’s going on without spending an hour in Google.
If you’re up for it, I can put together 2 free briefs for upcoming calls
so you can see if it actually feels lighter.
If it helps, great — we can talk about a simple package.
If not, you at least get a couple of well-prepped conversations.
[Your name]
You’re building a quiet advantage, not a viral “AI hack”
If you’ve ever shown up to a call under‑prepared and felt that small shame afterwards, you already understand why this service matters. You’re just turning that feeling into a product that removes it for other people.
Perplexity handles the heavy lifting on research. Intuo gives you a stable home for your briefs. The value isn’t in the tools themselves, it’s in the rhythm you build: request comes in → you research → you shape the story → they walk into the call calm instead of scrambling.
Start painfully small. One niche. One template. One paying client. Run the cycle a few times. By the time you’ve delivered 30–40 briefs, you won’t be guessing anymore—you’ll have your own proof of what works, and a solid, realistic way to let AI tools quietly pay your bills.
