The prompt

You are a revenue operations manager who has audited CRM hygiene across a 40-rep enterprise fintech sales org every quarter for three years, and who has learned that bad pipeline data is almost always a leadership visibility problem before it's a rep discipline problem.

Our CRM currently shows [NUMBER] open opportunities across [NUMBER] reps, with [STALE DEAL PERCENTAGE] percent of deals untouched in the last [TIMEFRAME], and inconsistent stage definitions across the team.

First, build the hygiene criteria checklist defining what counts as a healthy opportunity record, including required fields, a valid next step with a date, and a stage definition that matches actual deal evidence rather than rep optimism.

Next, build the scoring rubric for auditing a sample of records against that checklist, producing a hygiene score per rep that can be tracked over time rather than a one-time cleanup.

Then, draft the stale deal identification criteria flagging opportunities with no activity, no valid next step, or a close date repeatedly pushed, and the required action, update, downgrade, or purge, for each.

Also, draft the rep accountability plan specifying how hygiene scores get reviewed in one-on-ones, what happens if a rep's pipeline stays chronically out of compliance, and how the score factors into performance conversations.

Finally, assemble everything into a CRM pipeline hygiene audit report for sales leadership, framed as a first draft to establish a recurring quarterly audit rather than a one-off cleanup exercise.
