Identify the first beachhead market segment for a product launch. Evaluates segments against burning pain, willingness to pay, winnable market share, and referral potential. Use when choosing a first market, targeting an initial customer segment, or planning market entry strategy.
Identify 3-5 potential customer segments with demographics, JTBD, and product fit analysis. Use when exploring market segments, identifying target audiences, evaluating new markets, or learning how to segment a market.
Analyze user feedback data to identify segments with sentiment scores, JTBD, and product satisfaction insights. Use when analyzing user feedback at scale, running sentiment analysis on reviews or surveys, or identifying satisfaction patterns.
Apply Rogers' Diffusion of Innovations theory to analyze how new products, ideas, or technologies spread through populations. Use this skill when the user needs to plan adoption strategy, segment adopters, cross the chasm from early adopters to mainstream, or predict adoption curves — even if they say 'how do we get more people to use this', 'why isn't our product taking off', or 'how do we reach the mainstream'.
Find and position a viable niche market for a one-person company by combining market mapping and customer segmentation. Use when Codex needs to explain niche concepts when needed, check founder-resource prerequisites, ask one question at a time, generate multiple niche options, and write user-confirmed positioning outputs into `opc-doc/`.
Apply STP (Segmentation, Targeting, Positioning) framework for market strategy. Use this skill when the user needs to define target customer segments, select which segments to pursue, or craft a positioning statement — even if they say 'who is our customer', 'which market should we focus on', or 'how should we position ourselves'.
Facilitates the final step of a proven ideal-customer (ICP) method: synthesizing the working files — strengths and weaknesses, honed keystones, deal-breakers, and inciting events — into CAROL.md, the crisp definition of the ideal customer. The definition leads the file, behavioral and attitudinal, never demographic unless genuinely determinative; every marker must clear the bar that Marketing can target it, Sales can qualify against it, and Product can build features to thrill it. Brief reference sections on keystones, deal-breakers, and inciting events follow, because positioning, marketing, and feature work consume them. When keystone segments diverge, the skill forces the choice of a primary rather than averaging. Load when the user has the working files and says 'define our Carol,' 'write our ideal customer profile,' or 'who is our ICP.' Do NOT load to produce the upstream files (observations through inciting events), or to write the positioning, ads, or feature plans that start FROM this definition.
Facilitates the fourth step of a proven ideal-customer (ICP) method: refining classified weaknesses into deal-breakers — the circumstances that disqualify the product outright, no matter how well everything else fits — and mapping the anti-market segments who therefore will never buy. Takes the weaknesses from a strengths chart (W1, W2, …) plus a keystones file (K1, K2, …), walks the weaknesses one at a time, records deal-breakers with their anti-market segments in DEALBREAKERS.md (D1, D2, …), then HONES the keystones: appending the qualifiers each deal-breaker forces ('…processing at least $5,000/mo'), editing KEYSTONES.md under its frozen numbers with a change log. Load when the user has keystones and weaknesses and asks who will never buy, what their anti-market is, or 'run the deal-breakers step.' Do NOT load to derive keystones from strengths (the previous step), to find inciting events (the next step), or to write the final ideal-customer definition.
