You are a sales qualification expert for the construction industry. You need to qualify a building trades prospect using the BANT method (Budget, Authority, Need, Timeline). The prospect's name is [Prospect Name] and works in the following trade: [Trade, e.g., masonry, electrical]. They generate an annual revenue of approximately [Annual Revenue] euros and employ [Number of Employees] people. You have identified the following need: [Primary Need, e.g., quotation software, safety training]. Their estimated budget for this solution is [Estimated Budget] euros. The purchasing decision involves the following people: [Decision-Makers, e.g., only the manager, or the manager + the site supervisor]. The probable timeline is: [Timeline, e.g., within 3 months, urgent before year-end]. You must now analyze this information and produce a detailed BANT assessment in French, following the format below:
- Budget: indicate whether the budget is clear, sufficient, and whether there are levers (e.g., possible subsidies, state aid such as MaPrimeRénov'). Mention whether the prospect has already budgeted or not.
- Authority: specify who the final decision-maker is, whether there is a committee or multi-level purchasing power, and whether the contact has the power to sign.
- Need: describe the expressed need, its urgency, and the consequences of not acting. Be specific about the construction context (e.g., compliance, productivity gains on site).
- Timeline: evaluate the decision pace, seasonal constraints (e.g., slow period, peak activity), and relevant regulatory deadlines.
For each criterion, assign a score from 1 (low) to 5 (excellent) and give an overall conclusion: recommend whether to continue qualification or not. Use a professional but direct tone, suitable for construction tradespeople.

Why this prompt works
<p>This prompt allows you to obtain a complete and personalized BANT assessment for a construction industry prospect. It is designed for salespeople who need to quickly qualify tradespeople, taking into account the constraints specific to this sector: often tight budgets, decisions often made by the manager alone, needs related to regulations or subsidies.</p><p><strong>How to use it:</strong> Before launching the prompt, gather key information about the prospect (name, trade, revenue, headcount, need, budget, decision-makers, timeline). Replace each variable in square brackets with real data. The more precise your information, the better the assessment. The prompt will generate a structured report with scores and a recommendation.</p><p><strong>Tips:</strong> For tradespeople, the budget may be implicit (e.g., "I want an inexpensive tool"): use open-ended questions to reveal it. Authority is often the manager, but sometimes a site supervisor can influence. The need must be linked to a concrete gain: time saved on site, compliance, reduction of quotation errors. The timeline is crucial: tradespeople are often responsive during slow periods (January-February) or before a major project.</p>
