ICP Definition Workflow
Define ideal customer profile for targeting:
- Analyze existing customers (top 20% by LTV)
- Identify common firmographics (size, industry, revenue)
- Map technographics (tools, maturity, integrations)
- Document psychographics (pain level, motivation, risk tolerance)
- Define 3-5 buyer personas (economic, technical, user)
- Validate against sales cycle and churn data
- Score prospects A/B/C/D based on ICP fit
- Validation: A-fit customers have lowest churn and fastest close

Positioning Development
Develop positioning using April Dunford methodology:
- List competitive alternatives (direct, adjacent, status quo)
- Isolate unique attributes (features only you have)
- Map attributes to customer value (why it matters)
- Define best-fit customers (who cares most)
- Choose market category (head-to-head, niche, new category)
- Layer on relevant trends (timing justification)
- Test with 10+ customer interviews
- Validation: 7+ customers describe value unprompted

Proactive Triggers
- No documented positioning → Without clear positioning, all marketing is guesswork.
- Messaging differs across channels → Inconsistent story confuses buyers.
- No ICP defined → Selling to everyone means selling to no one.
- Competitor repositioning → Market shift detected. Review your positioning.
