The 8 skills, and what you'll say to Claude
Nothing to memorize. Talk to Claude like you normally would. These phrases kick off the workflows:
Arrows setup. Learns how you sell from your CRM, calls, and email. Run this first.
Arrows daily brief. Your day, what changed since yesterday, and what to do first.
Arrows pre-call prep. A 60-second brief for one call, gaps included.
Arrows post-call. Writes your follow-up and updates the CRM from what was said, after you approve.
Arrows deal nudge. Finds deals at risk and drafts a short nudge for each, in your voice.
Arrows weekly pipeline review. One shareable page: what's moving, what's at risk, what to do this week. Leaders get a rollup by rep.
Arrows process gaps report. What's falling through the cracks: money at risk, missed follow-ups, and this week's moves.
Arrows CRM guide and hygiene check. Learns how your pipeline really works, then keeps your CRM clean with fixes from your calls and email.
Use ChatGPT, Copilot, or Gemini? The same skills are free as plain files on GitHub.
Install the Claude connector (takes 2 minutes)
A connector is Claude's version of an integration. Connect it once and the skills show up in every Claude conversation, with new skills appearing automatically as we ship them.
- Download Claude Desktop if you haven't already.
- Open Settings (click your name, bottom-left), then Connectors.
- Click Add custom connector.
- Name it Sales Skills by Arrows and paste this URL:
https://skills.arrows.to - Click Add, toggle it on, and start a new conversation.
- Optional: click the connector in your list and set Tool permissions to Always allow, so Claude doesn't ask before each skill.
Can't install the connector? Grab the skills pack on GitHub. It works with any AI tool.
Get started
- In Claude, start a new conversation and type:
Build my sales profile
- Setup reads your CRM, calls, and email, shows you what it learned, and asks a couple of quick questions. About 5–10 minutes.
- It gives you a few short profile files and walks you through saving them in a Claude project called My Deals. (A project is a workspace that keeps files for every chat inside it.)
That's it. Every conversation in My Deals now knows how you sell, how you write, and how your team runs deals. Leading a team? Setup also makes team files your reps can add.
Your first 10 minutes
Don't stop at the install. Run one workflow right now. The daily brief is the best first test:
If something isn't working, disconnect and reconnect the connector in Settings, or restart Claude. That fixes most things.
Common questions
What are Claude skills for sales?
Claude skills are instructions that teach Claude to do one job the same way every time. Sales skills turn everyday sales work into one-line requests: say "Run my Arrows daily brief" and Claude pulls today's calls, replies you owe, and pipeline alerts from your CRM, email, calendar, and call recordings. Sales Skills by Arrows is a free set of 7 of them.
Is my deal data safe?
The skills are instructions for Claude, not a pipe to us. Your CRM, email, and calls stay connected through Claude's own connectors, and Arrows only sees that the skills are being used, not the contents of your CRM, email, or calls. Check with your company to make sure your Claude account is set up so Anthropic doesn't train on your data.
Will it hallucinate stuff about my deals?
It works from what's in the tools you connect: your CRM, email, calendar, and call recordings. That said, it's always possible for AI to hallucinate or get deals mixed up, so double-check its work. Treat yourself as the human reviewer on anything it drafts, especially before it goes to a buyer.
Does it work with my CRM?
Any CRM with a Claude connector: HubSpot, Salesforce, Attio, Pipedrive, and more. You can check yours in Claude's connector directory. If yours isn't listed, the workflows still run. You'll just paste deal context in manually.
What's the catch?
There's no catch. It's free to use, no signup or email gate, and you can remove it anytime. We build Arrows, a sales execution platform that takes this much further. If these skills are useful to you, you're exactly who we built Arrows for. That's the whole play.
Is this a good way to start using AI for sales?
The best one we know. If you have a Claude account at work, this gets it doing real sales work in about 15 minutes, no customizing required. Want to see how it all works before you install? Read the full guide: How to set up Claude for sales in 15 minutes.
Can my whole sales team use this?
Yes. Each rep installs it in their own Claude account and gets the same skills. Each rep still runs it on their own, though: they prompt it, and their setups drift over time. When you want one playbook running on every deal for the whole team without anyone prompting, see how Arrows compares to Claude for sales teams.
Does it work with ChatGPT, Copilot, or Gemini?
Yes. The connector is for Claude, but the same 8 skills are free as plain files in the GitHub repo. Paste one into a Custom GPT (ChatGPT), a custom agent (Microsoft Copilot), or a Gem (Google Gemini) and trigger it with the same phrases.
Connector, plugin, or files: which should I use?
Use the connector if you can add custom connectors in Claude: one URL, and new skills show up on their own. Use the Claude plugin if your company prefers plugins or you work in Claude Code. Use the files from GitHub if your admin blocks both or you use ChatGPT, Copilot, or Gemini. The skills are the same in all three.
Is it available as a Claude plugin?
Yes. The same skills come as a Claude plugin called Sales Skills by Arrows. In Claude, go to Customize, then Plugins, then Add marketplace, and enter ArrowsHQ/arrows-sales-skills. In Claude Code, run claude plugin marketplace add ArrowsHQ/arrows-sales-skills. Details are in the GitHub repo.
How do I uninstall it?
Settings → Connectors → remove Sales Skills by Arrows (or Arrows Sales Skills, if you added it under the old name). That's it. Nothing else to clean up.
