Generate a 25-Question Discovery Bank by Persona

Generate 25 open-ended discovery questions grouped across current state, pain, impact, urgency, process, and risk.

About this prompt

This prompt helps AEs and SDRs produce a bank of 25 discovery questions for a specific offer and buyer persona, grouped into seven intent areas from current state through risk. Every question is open-ended and non-leading, with the two or three highest-impact ones flagged. Use it ahead of a discovery call when you want structured coverage instead of improvising questions in the moment.Weak discovery comes from reps asking whatever surfaces in the moment, leaving whole areas like decision process or success criteria untouched. This prompt generates 25 questions distributed across seven named groups — current state, pain, impact, urgency, buying process, success criteria, and risk — each phrased open-ended and tied to its group's intent. Provide the [OFFER], the buyer [PERSONA], and optionally [DEAL CONTEXT] to sharpen relevance. It's built for the discovery stage and persona-level prep, so it gives you a reusable bank rather than a single-call agenda. The more specific your [PERSONA], the less generic the questions, so describe their role, priorities, and likely pressures rather than just a title. One tip: pull the two or three flagged high-impact questions to the top of your call plan and treat the rest as backup so you don't try to run all 25.
