Sales Enablement

The Enablement Kit

Produce the sales collateral a rep actually hands a prospect, mapped to who they are and what stage the deal is in, not a generic template.

Boundary: For objection responses, use objection-handling: that skill already covers objection acknowledgment/response/follow-up in depth. This skill is for the other asset types: one-pagers, ROI calculators, proposals, and playbooks.

Copy standard. Read references/outbound-copy-standards.md before writing, and check what you return against its numbered checklist. It sets the awareness-stage calibration, the promise-continuity rule, the opening-line specificity test, the proof ladder, and the one-ask rule for every line of copy this pack produces. Its checks are additional to this skill's own.

Check retrieval before producing. Read The Usage Problem, With Numbers in references/sales-enablement-assets.md. About 65% of marketing content goes unused by sales, and roughly 60-70% of that is untouched specifically because reps cannot find it, not because it is bad. Around 40% gets recreated because nobody located the original, and sellers lose about 10 hours a week hunting for and reworking material.

Two consequences for this skill:

• "We need better collateral" usually is not a request for a new asset. Ask what already exists, whether reps can find it, and whether the gap is creation or retrieval. Producing into an unfindable library adds to the 65%. If the gap is retrieval, say so and stop.
• Roughly 50% of prospect engagement comes from about 10% of content. So ask which assets reps actually send unprompted and which prospects respond to, and use those as the template. A rep sending the same thing repeatedly is the closest thing to a usage metric most teams have. Ask too what they improvise from scratch every time: that gap is the highest-value asset nobody has built. Where the user cannot answer which assets get sent, measuring that is the first deliverable, ahead of producing anything.

Before you write

Run the input list below before you write anything. If one of those inputs is missing, ask for it and stop. Do not return a draft with a warning on it. The user copies the draft and leaves the warning behind, so a caveat protects you and not them. Ask at most THREE questions. Hard cap. Before anything becomes a question, get it yourself: read .agents/product-context.md, fetch the site or page they named, compute it from numbers they already gave, or look up the platform default. Whatever is left after that, and everything past the third question, becomes a stated assumption the user corrects in one word rather than a question that stops the work. Number them, and say what you will assume if one goes unanswered. Check .agents/product-context.md first so you never ask for something already recorded there.

Write it the way you would say it. Read references/house-rules.md and apply it to everything you return: answer first, ordinary words, short sentences, top three rather than all fourteen, no em dashes. Its nine-question check, quality plus safety, runs on your output in addition to this skill's own.

Context

1. If .agents/product-context.md does not exist, build it yourself. Do not tell the user to go and run another skill first. Read their website and public sources for positioning, ICP, the offer and tiers, brand voice, proof points and competitors. Ask only for what research genuinely cannot establish, inside your three-question budget. Then write what you learned to .agents/product-context.md so the next skill does not repeat the work, and say in one line that you created it and what you inferred rather than observed. The parts this skill needs most are the ICP, target persona, product one-liner, competitive landscape, and brand voice.
2. Read .agents/product-context.md for the ICP, target persona, product one-liner, competitive landscape, and brand voice. Any input below that these already cover is usually recorded there: pull it and confirm with the user rather than asking them to restate it.
3. The banned-word list in that file is binding on every line of copy this skill returns, not advisory.

How to run

The list below is longer than three, and three is the cap. Most of it you can get without asking: read the context file, fetch the URL they named, compute it, or look up the platform default. Ask only for the three that genuinely cannot be derived and that most change the output. State the rest as assumptions, marked as assumptions, and let the user correct the one that matters.

Ask the user for:

1. Which asset they need: one-pager, ROI calculator, proposal, playbook, or demo script / talk track
2. Value proposition and 2-3 differentiators, with a number for each where possible: "cuts reporting time" is weaker than "cuts reporting time by 80%"
3. Who uses it and who reads it: AE/SDR/champion uses it; economic buyer, technical buyer, end user, or champion reads it
4. Deal stage the asset is for
5. For a proposal specifically: the prospect's actual discovery notes (their stated pain points, in their own words) and which stakeholders have been spoken to. Do not draft a proposal without this. A proposal that doesn't mirror the prospect's own language reads as templated and hurts the deal.
6. For an ROI calculator specifically: the prospect's current-state metrics (time spent on the manual process, current tool cost, team size, error rate). Ask for these; do not estimate them on the prospect's behalf. If the user doesn't have them yet, output the calculator with clearly marked placeholder fields instead of invented numbers.

Process

Match structure to the asset type:

One-pager: problem statement (1 sentence) → solution → 3 differentiators → 1 proof point → CTA with a named contact. One page, front only or front-and-back max. Scannable in 30 seconds: bold headers, short bullets, no dense paragraphs.

ROI calculator: input fields (current-state metrics from the prospect) → the calculation formula, shown explicitly, not just the result (time saved, cost reduction, revenue impact) → outputs (annual ROI %, payback period, 3-year value). Show the formula because the rep has to defend the math live on a call.

Proposal: executive summary (1 page max, their challenge + your solution + expected outcome) → proposed solution mapped to their stated requirements → implementation timeline → pricing and terms → next steps. Mirror their discovery-call language, not marketing copy. Keep it under 7 pages: proposals over 10 pages consistently go unread.

Playbook: buyer profile → qualification framework (BANT/MEDDIC or the user's own) → discovery questions organized by topic → competitive positioning per named competitor → recommended demo flow per persona.

Demo script / talk track: frame → the one capability that matters most to this persona, shown first → their own data or scenario → at most two supporting beats → restate the outcome in their words and ask what they want to see next. Written in the rep's spoken register, with the points marked where they should stop talking. See the reference file for the talk-track types and their lengths.

Tailor emphasis by buyer type regardless of asset:

Output format

Deliver the requested asset in full and ready to use, not an outline needing a second pass. Follow the structure above for the specific asset type requested, using the buyer's actual words and numbers wherever the user supplied them.

If the user asked for a proposal or ROI calculator without providing the required inputs (discovery notes / current-state metrics), stop and ask for them instead of inventing a customer voice or numbers that don't exist yet.

Every asset also ships with the adoption and expiry block from the reference file, because an asset reps do not trust or cannot find is not an asset:

• What it replaces, or where it slots into an existing motion
• Where it lives and who owns it
• Last verified date and the trigger that forces the next review (a pricing change, a churn, a competitor launch, a relevant release)

Before any customer name appears in something a prospect will see, confirm the reference is approved and still current. Having the number is not the same as having permission to use it, and a churned customer cited as proof is a liability the rep will not see coming.

Read references/sales-enablement-assets.md for the full slide-by-slide deck framework, case study brief format, buyer persona card template, demo script and talk-track structures, the adoption test, and the asset expiry table.

Quality check before returning

Scope of these checks. Two rules before you run them, because testing found both failures in most skills in this pack:

• A check you cannot answer from the inputs you asked for is conditional, not skippable. If it needs data the Inputs section never collects, run it only when the user happened to supply that data. Otherwise say the check did not run and name the input it needed. Never skip it silently, and never invent the data to make it pass. Inventing is the likelier failure and the worse one.
• Every figure stated in this skill's own instructions is a pack benchmark, not the user's number. Label it inline as such wherever it reaches the output, or replace it with [NEED: source] if it is doing real work in a decision and no source exists. House rules 4b and 4c have the full version.

Before returning the output, verify:

• Was retrieval checked before production: does the asset already exist, and can reps find it? If the gap is findability rather than creation, is that said instead of producing another asset?
• Was the user asked which assets reps actually send unprompted, and what they improvise from scratch? Where they cannot answer, is measuring that named as the first deliverable?
• Does the asset follow the structure for its specific type (one-pager / ROI calculator / proposal / playbook), not a generic layout?
• Does the ROI calculator show the calculation formula explicitly, not just the output numbers?
• If discovery notes or current-state metrics were missing, did the output stop and ask instead of inventing a customer voice or numbers?
• Is the one-pager scannable in 30 seconds (bold headers, short bullets, no dense paragraphs) and one page front-and-back max?
• Is the proposal under 7 pages and does it mirror the prospect's own discovery-call language rather than marketing copy?
• Does the asset carry its adoption block: what it replaces or where it slots in, where it lives, who owns it, and a last-verified date with the trigger for the next review?
• Would a rep put their own name behind every claim in it? Flag any claim the rep could not defend if challenged, since one indefensible number discredits the whole document.
• Is every named customer confirmed as an approved, current reference rather than just a name the user happened to supply?
• For a demo script: is it written in spoken register, does the most important capability come first rather than last, and are the stop-talking points marked?

If any check fails, fix the relevant section before returning. Do not return a draft that fails a check.
