Anatomy of a Great AI Sales Roleplay Prompt (6 Elements)
The 6 elements
1. Persona — age, role, ownership, marital status.
2. Behavior + difficulty — Easy / Medium / Hard / Brutal.
3. Stage goal — what the AI is trying to do this call.
4. Primary objection — the one they're guaranteed to throw.
5. Hidden concern — the real reason, revealed only on isolation.
6. End conditions — what gets a yes vs ends the call.
Why it matters
Most AI roleplay is too easy because the prompt didn't tell the AI to lie, withhold, and push back. A great prompt makes the AI behave like a real prospect.
