```text
I'm meeting [NAME AND TITLE] at [COMPANY NAME] on [MEETING DATE]. I help [YOUR IDEAL CLIENT] with [YOUR OFFER, e.g. leadership coaching]. I'm sharing what I have: [WHAT YOU HAVE, e.g. annual report, earnings call, news].

Using those and reliable public sources, give me a one-page meeting brief:
1. Their business in three sentences: how they make money, who their customers are, and what's changed recently.
2. The top three pressures their industry faces right now, in their language.
3. What leadership has said publicly about priorities, with quotes and dates.
4. Where my offer most likely fits, and where it doesn't.
5. Three specific questions that show I've done my homework.
6. Two industry insights they may not have considered.
7. Likely objections and a brief answer for each.
Mark anything you're inferring rather than reading from a source.
```

## Step by step
