# Analyst Relations Brief Skill

Prepare a crisp, credible analyst briefing that lands the company's narrative and positions it well for evaluations. Analysts reward clear differentiation backed by evidence — not marketing gloss.

## What This Skill Produces

- A briefing objective and the one message to land
- A tight company + product narrative and market framing
- Differentiation and proof points an analyst can verify
- A demo storyline mapped to the analyst's evaluation criteria
- Anticipated tough questions with honest answers, plus follow-ups

## Required Inputs

Ask for these if not provided:

- **The analyst / firm** and their coverage area, plus any evaluation (Magic Quadrant, Wave, MarketScape) in play
- **Objective** — inclusion in an evaluation, repositioning, launch awareness, feedback
- **Company & product basics** — what it does, who it's for, traction
- **Differentiation** and the proof (customers, metrics, architecture)
- **Roadmap themes** you can share (and what's confidential)
- **Known analyst views** or prior feedback, if any

Never fabricate metrics, customers, or roadmap dates — mark `[to confirm]` and flag anything under NDA.

## Process

1. **Set the objective** — what a good outcome looks like and the single message to land.
2. **Frame the market** — the category, the shift, and where you play; align to the analyst's taxonomy.
3. **Tell the narrative** — problem, approach, why now, why you.
4. **Prove it** — evidence that survives scrutiny; concede limits honestly.
5. **Map the demo** to the analyst's criteria — show, don't tell.
6. **Pre-empt hard questions** — pricing, scale, competition, gaps; prepare honest answers.
7. **Plan follow-up** — what you'll send, by when, and how you'll track the relationship.

## Output Format

# Analyst Briefing Kit — [Firm / Analyst]

**Date:** [date] · **Objective:** [outcome] · **Evaluation in play:** [MQ / Wave / none]

## The One Message
[The single thing the analyst should remember.]

## Market Framing
[The category shift and where you fit, in the analyst's language.]

## Company & Product Narrative
- **What we do:** [one line] · **For:** [ICP]
- **Why now:** [market shift] · **Traction:** [customers / growth — or `[to confirm]`]

## Differentiation & Proof
| Differentiator | Why it matters | Proof (verifiable) |
|---|---|---|
| [Point] | [analyst-relevant value] | [customer / metric / architecture] |

## Demo Storyline (mapped to evaluation criteria)
1. [Criterion] → [what we show]
2. [Criterion] → [what we show]

## Anticipated Questions
| Likely question | Honest answer | Where we're weak (and the plan) |
|---|---|---|
| [Question] | [answer] | [gap + roadmap theme] |

## Roadmap Themes to Share
- [Theme] — [shareable direction] · [confidential: yes/no]

## Follow-Ups
- [Deliverable] — [owner] — [by when]

---

## Quality Checks

- [ ] The one message is explicit and repeated in the narrative
- [ ] Differentiators map to the analyst's evaluation criteria
- [ ] Every proof point is verifiable, or marked `[to confirm]`
- [ ] Weak spots are acknowledged with a credible plan, not hidden
- [ ] Confidential/NDA items are clearly flagged
- [ ] Follow-ups have owners and dates

## Anti-Patterns

- [ ] Do not use marketing superlatives an analyst will discount
- [ ] Do not dodge gaps — analysts probe them; own them with a plan
- [ ] Do not invent metrics, logos, or roadmap dates
- [ ] Do not ignore the analyst's taxonomy and force your own category
- [ ] Do not overload the demo; map it to what's being evaluated

## Example Trigger Phrases

- "Prep me for a Gartner briefing next week"
- "Write an analyst briefing document for our platform"
- "Build talking points and anticipated questions for a Forrester Wave call"
- "Prepare our narrative for a Magic Quadrant submission"
