Two business operations skills. Which one fits your job? Side-by-side below.

The short version

Sales Operations Assistant

By ClawHub Community

Manage your sales pipeline—track deals, prep for calls, and keep client comms organized.

Discovery Call Prep

By Mohit Agarwal (PM Skills)

Get a research brief, smart questions, and a clear game plan before every sales call.

What each one does

Sales Operations Assistant

  • Prepares you for client calls by reviewing attendees and agendas
  • Logs deal updates directly into your tracking spreadsheet
  • Converts follow-up emails into actionable tasks automatically
  • Uploads proposals and shares them via Google Drive
  • Delivers a weekly summary of your sales pipeline

Discovery Call Prep

  • Researches the prospect company — size, stage, recent news, and what someone in their role likely cares about
  • Writes a call hypothesis: their probable pain, why they'd care about you, and what might kill the deal
  • Builds a question flow that moves from context to pain to buying process without feeling like an interrogation
  • Defines what success looks like so you know if the call actually moved things forward
  • Suggests a specific next step to propose at the end of the call

When to pick each one

Reach for Sales Operations Assistant when…

  • You're prepping for a client meeting and need context fast
  • You need to log a deal update without opening a spreadsheet
  • You want to turn email follow-ups into tracked tasks
  • You're juggling multiple deals and need a pipeline overview

Reach for Discovery Call Prep when…

  • You have a discovery call with a new prospect and want to show up with context
  • You're doing founder-led sales and need structure so every call gets better
  • You want to ask smarter questions instead of pitching too early
  • You need to qualify whether this lead is real or just 'sounds interesting'
