About this prompt
This prompt helps AEs and SEs request SE time on a deal in a way an SE leader will say yes to. It produces a leader-ready staffing request built on the ROI of SE time and a stage-by-stage involvement plan that is honest about where SE help is overkill. Use it when you need to secure scarce SE resourcing and want to look like someone who respects a shared, limited resource.SE time is a scarce shared resource, and reps who ask for it like it is free get deprioritized fast. This prompt writes two things: a short, leader-ready staffing request that makes the case on the ROI of SE time with the specific skills needed, the realistic time commitment, the deal impact if you get it, and the cost if you do not; and a stage-by-stage involvement plan mapping where the SE adds value versus where you can run solo, each touchpoint marked must-have or nice-to-have. Provide the ACCOUNT and DEAL SIZE, the STAGE and KEY DATES, why the deal needs SE muscle such as technical complexity, risk, or competitive pressure, the RISK if SE is not involved, and where you think you need them across DEMO, POC, ARCH REVIEW, or SECURITY. It closes with a 'minimum viable SE' version showing where to spend the time if you only get half of what you asked for. A practical tip: be genuinely honest about where SE involvement is overkill, since that candor is what earns a leader's trust and a faster yes.The prompt
