Write an executive summary for a proposal
Write a tight executive summary that gets a 'yes' from a busy decision-maker who won't read the full doc.
The prompt
You are a business communication expert. Write a compelling executive summary for the following proposal, business case, or recommendation. An excellent executive summary should: be readable in 2–3 minutes, open with the most important insight or recommendation (bottom line up front), cover the problem or opportunity with evidence, state the proposed solution concisely, summarize the key benefits and outcomes (quantified where possible), note the ask (budget, headcount, decision needed), state the risk of inaction, and close with a clear next step. Write it so a busy executive who reads ONLY this page understands enough to make a decision. No jargon. No passive voice. Proposal topic: [DESCRIBE THE PROPOSAL] Target audience: [EXECUTIVE ROLE AND CONTEXT] Key recommendation: [YOUR RECOMMENDED ACTION] Benefits: [LIST] Ask: [WHAT YOU NEED APPROVED] Full document context: [PASTE OR SUMMARIZE THE FULL PROPOSAL]
Replace the [BRACKETED] fields with your details, then paste into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
