The short version

Discovery Call Prep

By Mohit Agarwal (PM Skills)

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

Job Description Writer

By Mohit Agarwal (PM Skills)

Write clear, inclusive job postings that attract the right candidates and reduce hiring bias.

What each one does

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

Job Description Writer

  • Structures a complete job posting with role overview, responsibilities, requirements, and benefits
  • Reviews language for bias and suggests inclusive alternatives to terms like 'rockstar' or 'ninja'
  • Flags requirements that may screen out underrepresented groups (like years-of-experience rules)
  • Separates must-haves from nice-to-haves so you don't over-filter candidates
  • Reminds you to include salary range (which increases applicants by 30%)

When to pick each one
