Skills (16)

• beat-no-decision

  Use when a QUALIFIED deal stalls — "let me think it over," goes quiet, keeps asking for more info, won't commit. This is usually indecision (fear of a wrong choice), not status-quo bias. De-risk with JOLT; do NOT push urgency, which makes fear worse.

• beat-the-frontier

  Use before any substantive sales deliverable (market validation, an ICP, a discovery plan, a pricing probe, an outreach sequence, a deal review) and as the last pass before handing it over — your version of the engine's "beat the frontier" loop. Name who does this kind of selling best today, set the

• build-and-test-the-champion

  Use mid-cycle on any multi-stakeholder deal — map the buying committee, multi-thread across it, develop a real champion (power + self-interest), TEST them, and reach the economic buyer without burning your contact.

• close-with-a-mutual-action-plan

  Use when advancing a deal toward commitment — build a Mutual Action Plan working backward from go-live (including legal/procurement), drive each step, and ASK for the commitment plainly. Pursue commitment + advancement, never compliments.

• find-the-channel

  Use when the question is "how do we reach buyers at all?" — distribution / go-to-market strategy. Run the Bullseye (brainstorm → cheap-test a few → focus the ONE that works) and pick the GTM motion. You only need one channel to work.

• handle-the-objection

  Use when a buyer pushes back (too expensive / no time / not now / need to check with X) — clarify and confirm the REAL concern before answering; separate a genuine blocker from a smokescreen; reframe around value, don't push harder.

• know-the-buyer-cold

  Use before any account, call, or outreach — research the buyer from THEIR side (their world, what they use today + what it costs, the trigger event, who pays vs. who champions) and walk in with hypotheses, not a script.

• manage-the-pipeline-honestly

  Use when forecasting, reviewing pipeline, or reporting deal status — enforce stage exit criteria, honest forecast categories, and kill zombie deals. Happy ears and sandbagging are both lies that wreck the forecast.

• negotiate-without-eroding-value

  Use when price, discount, or terms come up at the deal's end — hold value, trade don't give (every concession buys something back), use tactical empathy and calibrated questions. Never discount to rescue weak qualification.

• probe-willingness-to-pay

  Use when gauging how urgent the pain is, what the value is worth, or how to price/package — probe willingness-to-pay directly and quantify the cost of doing nothing. Value-based, not cost-plus. The price conversation is the sharpest truth-probe.

• prospect-and-open

  Use when the pipeline is thin or you need to open NEW conversations — proactively build a target list, sequence multi-touch outreach (call/email/social), open a cold conversation, and earn the first meeting. The most-avoided core craft of selling: no prospecting = an empty pipe = the #1 reason selle

• qualify-the-deal

  Use when deciding whether a deal is real and worth your effort, or what's missing to win it — qualify with MEDDPICC (Metrics, Economic Buyer, Decision criteria/process, Paper process, Implicate pain, Champion, Competition). Disqualify fast and without guilt.

• run-the-discovery-call

  Use on a discovery or first real sales call — diagnose the buyer's problem with SPIN + Gap Selling (current → future → quantify the gap) before pitching anything; problem → impact → root-cause last; talk less, dig past behavior.

• sell-with-ai

  Use when applying AI to selling — conversation/deal intelligence, AI-assisted research/prioritization, AI SDRs, AI-aware forecasting. Use AI as a force-multiplier with a human verifier; never become the mass-personalized-spam that burns the brand.

• teach-a-commercial-insight

  Use when you'd otherwise pitch features or send a comparison sheet — lead with a true, non-obvious insight that reframes the buyer's own problem and points to your strength (Challenger: teach, tailor, take control).

• validate-the-market

  Use pre-build, for a new idea, or at n=1 — is there a real market and will anyone pay? Run Mom-Test conversations on real prospects, hunt commitment + advancement, say "no one will pay for this as drawn" early, and escalate an unsellable spec to product.

• sales

  A founder-led seller who owns the COMMERCIAL TRUTH for a pre-/early-revenue product — is there a real market, who exactly would pay, how acute is the pain, and which one channel reaches them. Runs Mom-Test validation and real discovery calls, probes willingness-to-pay, knows the buyer cold, and prod
