Overdue-invoice follow-up preparation
Every overdue invoice gets a follow-up drafted in your firm’s tone for its age and addressed from the right person, and every invoice that should not be chased is held with the reason written down.
Premortem before a decision
Before your team commits to a plan that is hard to undo, such as a move, a launch or a new system, a short workshop pictures it a few months on, already failed. The record ranks the reasons, turns each top risk into a check, a warning sign and an owner, and leaves the go decision with the owner.
Presentation outline and talk track
Anyone presenting to a board, a client or a conference gets a storyboard built on one message, then a spoken script for every slide, timed to the slot and true to their own speaker notes. Every fact comes from what the presenter supplied, and the presenter approves the message and the words.
Price change review
Before prices change, the owner or finance lead gets one review: the margin on each product or service from the sales and cost exports, how costs have moved, what each proposed price does to sales and gross profit across a stated range of customer responses, and dated competitor prices. It recommends no price.
Product pricing options
A product owner weighing how to price or package a product gets one options brief: what each customer group uses, the willingness-to-pay evidence held with stated kept apart from observed, what each option would bill every account, the uncertainties and the tests. It recommends no price.
Prospect list by role and firm type
Before anyone writes a first note, you know which kinds of firm and which roles in them deserve your next conversations. Every firm is tested against your own criteria first and carries a sourced reason, a grade and the questions only a conversation can answer. Nobody is contacted.
Quality management review pack
Before the periodic quality review, the quality lead gets one brief for senior leaders: where each measure stands, complaints and defects, audit findings, action status, and the decisions still open. The leaders decide; the brief claims no compliance with any standard.
Quarterly business review preparation
Before each customer's quarterly review, the account manager gets a pack built on the customer's own goals: the quarter's result for each, labelled by where it came from, what is still open, next quarter's goals for discussion and a timed agenda. A person settles every question and sends it.
Referral programme design
Turn the recommendations your work already earns into a habit: when to ask, who on your own list to ask first and for what, what you give back, the words for each ask and the note an introducer forwards, and how every introduction is recorded. You send each message yourself.
Referral source follow-up
The day after a partner meets someone who sends the firm work, they have a follow-up draft and a list of every promise made at the table, by both sides. The draft uses only approved materials and nothing said in confidence; the partner checks it, chooses the next step and sends it.
Referring practice meeting brief
Before meeting a referring office that has raised handoff problems, the practice liaison gets one brief: what was promised to that office and whether each promise was kept, the questions its staff keep asking, counted by topic, and a proposed agenda. Counts only, no patient detail; the liaison decides.
Renewal risk review
Once a month, the account manager sees every contract coming up for renewal on one page: the dates that matter, the warning signs your organization watches for, which accounts are at risk, and the next step for each with an owner and a date. A person decides and makes every contact.
Research summary brief
An executive handed a pile of reports, articles or papers gets one brief: what each source found, where the sources agree and disagree, the limits of each, and exact quotations cited to the page. Built only from the documents supplied. What it means for the business stays the reader's call.
Sales call preparation brief
Your salesperson, partner or account manager walks into every meeting with a brief they can read in five minutes: who will be there, what has been said and promised so far, what is still open, and a plan for the call. Every line traces to your own notes or a public page, and anything inferred is labelled.
Sales call scorecard
After a sales call, your sales lead sees how it went against your team's own criteria, each point backed by the words actually said, where the call left the deal, and one focus for the next call. It reviews a call, never a person, and gives no score for anyone's file.
Sales pipeline review
Each week your sales lead sees the whole open pipeline on one page: value and age by stage, what moved since last week, the deals at risk and coverage against your target. Every figure traces to your export, and the forecast number is left for a person to commit.
Sales proposal preparation
Your account executive answers an RFP in minutes, not weeks, with a proposal draft where every claim traces to approved company information and every gap is already a question for the right person.
Software subscription and vendor spend review
From a card statement or ledger export, the finance or operations lead gets every subscription on one register: what each costs a year, who owns it, what renews in the next 90 days, what looks unused, duplicated or orphaned, and the decisions to make. Nothing is cancelled or changed.
Stalled-deal review
Your sales lead sees, from the record alone, which open deals have stopped moving, what each one's stage still lacks and whose move it is, and where every recent no ended and why. Nothing in your sales system is changed; corrections are proposed for a person to make.
Supplier bill review and payment-run preparation
Before each payment run, the person who approves it gets one sheet: every supplier bill checked against its purchase order and what was received, duplicates and changed bank details stopped, credits shown, and a proposed run with its total. Nothing is paid until a person approves.
Supplier delivery date check
The purchasing or operations person gets one comparison from the open purchase orders and the supplier replies: promised and revised dates side by side, the orders each change puts at risk, and the follow-ups still unanswered. No supplier is contacted.
Supplier issue notice
When a supplier bills for more than was ordered or received, or falls short of an agreed delivery or quality target, the buyer gets a formal notice ready for approval: each problem set against the record, the evidence listed, what the supplier must do and the date to reply by. A person approves and sends it.
Supplier performance scorecard
Once a quarter, the buyer or operations lead scores each key supplier from the business's own order and receiving exports: on-time delivery, fill rate, defects and returns, price against agreed terms and order confirmations, with the trend, the evidence behind every score and the points to raise. A person decides.
Supplier quality response check
A quality or purchasing person who has raised a defect with a supplier gets the supplier's reply set against the finding: what is answered, what is not, the evidence still to ask for, the actions proposed and what has yet to be verified. The person decides whether the answer is accepted.
