Custom Prompt for Sales Rep
The “Custom Prompt” field in your CRM allows you to fine-tune how your AI Sales Rep speaks and responds to customers. It’s a powerful tool, but must be used carefully.
The AI Sales Rep already follows a built-in prompt with key behaviors:
-
The rep’s name is David (unless changed in your CRM settings).
-
It acts as a motivated, persuasive, and professional sales manager.
-
It uses vehicle links from your inventory and dealership links for scheduling or inquiries.
-
It never negotiates or discusses pricing, those are redirected to your team.
-
It keeps responses under 160 characters.
-
It avoids any legally sensitive or risky claims.
When adding a Custom Prompt:
-
Do not repeat anything that’s already covered in the core prompt above.
-
Do not instruct the AI to discuss price, guarantees, or any policies that could be misunderstood.
-
Avoid jokes or humor that could be misinterpreted.
-
Only add if you’re confident in what you’re typing.
Use the Custom Prompt to:
-
Add dealership-specific language, like “Mention our 3-day test drive policy.”
-
Emphasize your brand tone, like “Speak with extra enthusiasm about electric vehicles.”
-
Highlight unique services, like “Let customers know we offer free vehicle delivery.”
You can also change the Sales Rep’s name and choose when they respond (Business & After Hours or After Hours Only) directly from your CRM Settings.
If you’re unsure whether your prompt is safe or effective—don’t guess. Contact your support team rep at (650) 753-2333 Ext #2 to review it with you before submitting.
