Sales deck for a first call
A 10-slide deck for a first call with an operations director. The seller is an invented dock scheduling product. GenPPT made all 10 slides. The prompt is on this page.
Why this deck works
- The first four slides are about the buyer: the result, the change, the pain, and the cost. The product comes on slide 5.
- The cost of no action is one number, $310,000 a year. After that number, the price looks small.
- The proof is one customer and one result. One strong number is better than five weak numbers.
- The last slide asks for a small step: a 30-day pilot at one site.
The prompt that made it
GenPPT prompt
10-slide sales deck for a first call. Seller: Dockhand, invented software that schedules truck arrivals at warehouse docks. Buyer: the operations director of a mid-size distribution company. Slide order: 1 title with the outcome, 2 the change in the market, 3 the pain in the buyer's week, 4 the cost of doing nothing, 5 the product in one visual, 6 proof, 7 how it works in three steps, 8 price and payback, 9 common objections, 10 next step. Facts to use (all invented): trucks wait 2.4 hours on average at the dock. Detention fees cost a 12-door warehouse about $310,000 a year. Dockhand customers cut the wait to 38 minutes. One customer, a regional grocer, saved $190,000 in the first year. Price: $1,450 a month for each site. Payback in 4 months. Live in 3 weeks. Next step: a 30-day pilot at one site. Rules: write for the buyer, not about the seller. One idea per slide. Each headline states the point. Style: industrial and clear, slate blue and safety yellow, simple diagrams of a warehouse dock. No real company names, no real people, no logos.

Slide 5: "Dockhand gives each truck an arrival window and a door." Slide 6: "A regional grocer saved $190,000 in the first year." Slide 7: "Three steps take a site live in 3 weeks." Slide 8: "$1,450 a month for each site pays back in 4 months."
