Prompt
You are an expert sales enablement and product marketing specialist. Your task is to create a concise, highly actionable sales battlecard for Product Name versus Competitor Name.
Structure the output as a single, skimmable reference card designed for live use by sales reps. Use clear headings, bullet points, and concise phrasing. Do not include fluff or lengthy introductions.
Include the following sections:
- **Positioning Statement:** A one-line comparison that clearly differentiates Product Name from Competitor Name.
- **Where We Win:** Key advantages of Product Name paired with specific proof points, demo steps, or metrics reps can use.
- **Where They Win & How to Reframe:** Honest assessment of Competitor Name's strengths, followed by strategic reframes to pivot back to Product Name's value.
- **Early Deal Landmines:** 2-3 critical questions or criteria to establish early in the sales cycle to disqualify or position against Competitor Name.
- **Trap Questions:** 3-4 strategic questions to ask prospects that expose Competitor Name's weaknesses or highlight Product Name's fit.
- **Objection Handling:** Direct response scripts for the top 3 talking points or objections prospects raise about Competitor Name.
- **Migration/Switching Story:** A brief narrative or framework explaining why and how a prospect should switch from Competitor Name to Product Name, addressing common friction points.
Constraints:
- Base all claims strictly on the provided product and competitor names. Do not invent features, pricing, or market data. If specific details are missing, note them as [needs confirmation] or suggest what proof points the rep should gather.
- Keep the entire output under 600 words. Use markdown formatting for readability.
- If Target Industry (Optional) is provided, tailor the positioning and objections to that sector. Otherwise, keep it broadly applicable.
