Teqfocus Post Frameworks
Five named structures for turning a raw topic into a publishable post. The framework choice depends on where the reader is: unaware of the problem, aware but stuck, or ready to act.
Prerequisite: Read /mnt/skills/user/teqfocus-gtm/SKILL.md first. Every framework fills with Teqfocus positioning, not generic copy.
Framework selection
| Reader state | Framework | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Doesn't feel the pain yet | PAS (Problem–Agitate–Solve) | Makes the invisible cost visible |
| Feels pain, hasn't pictured the fix | BAB (Before–After–Bridge) | Sells the destination, then the path |
| Evaluating options | AIDA (Attention–Interest–Desire–Action) | Builds a case toward one action |
| Needs proof | STAR (Situation–Task–Action–Result) | Case-study shape; strongest with a named or white-labeled client |
| Needs a strong opinion | SLAY (Story–Lesson–Application–You) | Practitioner POV; best for Avi/Jas personal profiles |
When the user doesn't specify, pick based on reader state and say why in one line.
Fill rules per framework
- PAS: Problem in the buyer's words (1–2 lines) → Agitate with the downstream cost — forecast misses, stalled AI projects, quarter-end reconciliation pain (3–4 lines) → Solve with the pattern, not the pitch; Teqfocus appears once, late.
- BAB: Before = current state a CIO would recognize instantly → After = the operating state, concrete ("month-end reconciliation becomes exception review") → Bridge = how, in 2–3 lines, credential surfacing naturally.
- AIDA: Attention via hook-generator mechanism → Interest = the insight → Desire = one white-labeled outcome,
[VERIFY]any metric → Action = exactly one CTA. - STAR: Route to customer-marketing skill first if a real client story is in scope (naming approval required). Fill only with verified detail; every metric flagged
[VERIFY]until confirmed. - SLAY: Story = real practitioner moment → Lesson = the transferable principle → Application = how the reader uses it Monday → You = a question back to the reader, not a pitch.
Universal rules
- Hook comes from teqfocus-hook-generator — never write the body first.
- Line breaks every 1–2 sentences. Mobile-first.
- One CTA per post. Comment-bait CTAs ("agree?") allowed only on SLAY.
- Banned words and banned openers enforced. American English.
- Competitor mentions use the correct wedge from the GTM Brain wedge table — never improvised.
Output format
Deliver the post ready to paste, framework labeled at top (label removed before publishing), then a one-line note on best posting persona (company page vs. personal) and day/time if history data exists. Run through humanizer, then recommend teqfocus-post-scorer + linkedin-post-reviewer before shipping.
