Stop writing your call prep from scratch.
I built this for a client who was spending two hours on prep before every closing call. Now she's down to fifteen minutes. Everything I pasted on screen in the video is below, in order. Build it once, and Claude keeps your method.
What a skill actually is
Your method, written down once, in a form Claude keeps.
Think of explaining your family recipe out loud every single time your chef cooks, versus writing the recipe on a card and handing it over. The card is the skill. Nothing new gets taught to the AI. You just write down a method you already run in your head.
Every skill has the same four parts.
1. The name
So you can call it. Type a slash, pick the skill, done.
2. The trigger
The moment it fires. "Use this whenever I paste a prospect's notes before a call."
3. The steps
Your method in order, the way you would explain it to a new assistant.
4. An example
What a good result looks like, filled in. Claude matches it every time.
The prompts, in film order
Open Claude, type /skill-creator, paste these five blocks as one message. Or take them one at a time and follow along with me.
1Name, trigger, role
Create a skill called call-prep-closer. TRIGGER: Use this whenever I give you a prospect's information before a sales call I intend to close on. Fire it when I paste notes, an intake form, or a diagnostic about someone I'm about to get on the phone with. ROLE: You are my sales strategist. Your job is to prepare the call I read before I dial, using the CLOSER method by Alex Hormozi. You write in plain, direct English.
2The CLOSER steps
STEPS: Structure the call prep in the six CLOSER phases, in this order. C - Clarify: open questions that confirm what I already know from their intake. Validate, don't rediscover. L - Label: restate their real problem in their own words. The real problem is often not the surface one. O - Overview: ask what they've already tried on their own and why it didn't work. Never criticize the effort. S - Sell the vision: show them where they'll be after the program, using their own numbers and goals. Sell the destination, not the features. E - Explain: pitch the offer, then prepare the objections they're most likely to raise, each with a response and a follow-up question. R - Reinforce: restate where they're going, give the next step, go quiet.
3The pre-flight read
Before you generate the document, stop and give me a short read in the chat first: 1. A three-line profile of this prospect. 2. The real thing blocking them, and the evidence in their data for it. 3. What they've already tried on their own, and why it failed. 4. The offer and payment structure you'd recommend for their situation. 5. Any red flags: are they actually a fit, anything I should watch for. Then wait for me to approve before you build the full document. Do not generate the call plan until I say go.
4Objections and boundaries
For the E phase, prepare at least five objections built from THIS prospect's real profile, not a generic list. For each: the exact phrase they'll probably say, two different responses, and a follow-up question. Never win the argument. Ask a question that makes them find the answer. Match this example exactly: OBJECTION: "It's too expensive." RESPONSE 1: "If we set the money aside for a second, does everything else about this feel right for you?" RESPONSE 2: Point back to what staying where they are is costing them, using a number they gave me earlier. FOLLOW-UP: "What would this need to return for the price to stop being the question?" BOUNDARIES: - Never invent data about the prospect. Use only what I give you. If it's incomplete, tell me and ask. - Never promise specific results. - Never use pressure or manipulation. The prospect can say no. - The script is a guide, not a word-for-word reading.
5The gold-standard example
Here is exactly what a finished call plan should look like, filled in for a prospect named Jordan. Match this structure and this level of specificity every time: CALL PLAN: Jordan Reyes · July 22 THE READ (top of page, 3 lines) Jordan, solo bookkeeper, ~$6k/month, wants +$3k/month recurring but stalls on follow-through. Bought two courses, finished neither. Asked about payment options: warm, likely a buying signal. C - CLARIFY (2 questions) "Walk me through how you're finding clients right now." "When you say you keep putting it off, what usually gets in the way?" L - LABEL (one sentence, their words) "So it's not that you don't know what to do, it's that nothing holds you to actually doing it." O - OVERVIEW (surface what they tried) "Those two courses you bought, what made you stop each time?" S - SELL THE VISION (their after-state, their number) Paint the month Jordan lands the first $3k of recurring revenue and it holds, because someone is finally keeping them accountable. E - EXPLAIN Offer pitch (2-3 lines). Objections (5, each: their exact phrase / 2 responses / follow-up Q). R - REINFORCE Close line, then the next step. NEXT STEP IF THEY SAY YES: send the onboarding link, book the kickoff. NEXT STEP IF THEY STALL: book the follow-up call before hanging up. Keep it to one page. It is a guide I glance at, not a script I read aloud.
TESTTry it with Jordan
Here's a prospect. Prep the call. Jordan runs a solo bookkeeping business. Makes about $6,000/month. Has around $15,000 saved. Wants to add $3,000/month in recurring revenue but keeps putting it off. On the intake form, said they've bought two courses before and finished neither. They asked what the payment options are.
After Claude builds and tests the skill, click Save skill. Next time you type a slash, call-prep-closer is right there. Paste your prospect's info, get the read, say go, and walk into the call with a one-page plan.
Not a closer? Find your skill.
Tell me what you actually do all week. I'll pick the three tasks that should be skills and hand you the name, the trigger, the steps, and what good looks like for each one. You can build the first one today.
Three questions before you build
Answer these and the skill writes itself.
What task do you redo every week? Not the fun ones. The one you sigh before starting.
Can you explain it to a new assistant, step by step? That explanation is the method. If you can say it, Claude can keep it.
What does a good result look like? Find your best past example and show it. Claude matches what you show, not what you hope.
