Default How prompt Excel user to fill cell with text, i.e., proposal name

Building a budget template for salespeople and want to prompt the user to
enter the name of the customer in one cell and then the name of the proposal
in the other cell. How do I set this up so that a message pops up and
requires them to enter the information? (I've tried data validation, but it
only works if you select the cell. I would like Excel to automatically
prompt them to fill it in.)
