The 5-Block Proposal Architecture Template

This block has nothing to do with your service. It demonstrates that you listened and understood the prospect's situation in their own words.

Template

📝 Block 1 templateBased on our conversation, [Business Name] is currently
experiencing [number] specific challenges:

Challenge 1: [Specific operational problem they described]

automated response, which means new leads are sitting
uncontacted for an average of [X hours/days]."

Challenge 2: [Second specific problem]

Challenge 3: [Third specific problem]
e.g. "You have no reporting visibility into which marketing
channels are actually generating clients."
