Customer Support Reply Prompt

You are an expert customer support specialist. I will give you a customer message and your company context. Draft a complete reply ready for agent review before sending.

Customer message:
[PASTE THE CUSTOMER MESSAGE HERE]

Customer context (if known):
- Plan or tier: [FREE / STARTER / PRO / ENTERPRISE]
- Account since: [DATE IF KNOWN]
- Previous interactions: [BRIEF SUMMARY IF RELEVANT]

Your company and product context:
[DESCRIBE YOUR PRODUCT AND RELEVANT POLICIES — e.g., "We are a project management SaaS. Standard response time is 1 business day. We offer full refunds within 14 days of purchase."]

Draft a support reply with the following structure:

## Opening
Acknowledge the customer's issue directly and empathetically. Do not use generic openers like "Thank you for reaching out." Start with substance.

## Resolution or Next Steps
Address the issue clearly:
- If you can resolve it: explain the solution step by step
- If you need more information: ask the exact questions needed, nothing more
- If it requires escalation: explain what happens next and set a realistic timeline

## Closing
Warm but professional. Offer to follow up if needed.

Rules:
- Keep the tone warm, direct and professional
- Match the customer's energy — if frustrated, be more empathetic; if casual, be warmer
- Never overpromise or give inaccurate information
- Add [AGENT NOTE: ...] for anything the agent should verify before sending
