Develop a competitive positioning strategy for a solopreneur business. Use when deciding how to differentiate from competitors, what market position to own, how to frame your offering against alternatives, and how to communicate that position. Covers positioning frameworks (Jobs-to-be-Done, against/for, category creation), positioning statements, and translating position into messaging. Trigger on "how do I differentiate", "positioning strategy", "how to stand out", "differentiate from competitors", "market positioning", "what makes me different", "competitive positioning", "own a position".
Find and own a defensible market position. Use when messaging sounds like competitors, conversion is weak despite awareness, repositioning a product, or testing positioning claims. Includes Crawl-Walk-Run rollout methodology and the word change that improved enterprise deal progression.
Use this skill when users need to find their unique marketing angle, differentiate from competitors, or transform their positioning. Activates for "find my angle," "how do I stand out," "why isn't this selling," "we sound like everyone else," or positioning strategy questions.
Build product marketing strategy including positioning, messaging, and go-to-market. Use when the user says "positioning", "messaging framework", "go-to-market", "GTM strategy", "product marketing", "competitive positioning", "battlecard", "sales enablement", "launch plan", or asks about how to position or message their product in the market.
Maps competitive landscape, identifies positioning gaps, and assesses competitor threats. Use when analyzing competition, finding white space, mapping alternatives, or building Canvas section 06.
Launch new products from idea to first customers. Use when launching products, finding early adopters, building launch week playbooks, diagnosing why adoption stalls, or learning that press coverage does not equal growth. Includes the three-layer diagnosis, the 2-week experiment cycle, and the launch that got 50K impressions and 12 signups.
Use this skill when a founder or expertise-led business looks interchangeable in their market — price-shopped against cheaper options, described in the same words as competitors, winning on rates instead of authority. It runs the "Position" step of the Atticus Method and produces a category-of-one positioning package - a reframed problem, category-defining language the market ties to the founder, and expertise packaged as proprietary IP. It interviews the founder in their own words first — what's broken in their industry, why, and their fix — and asks for the ICP if it isn't already known, before reframing anything. Trigger phrases: "we sound like everyone else", "prospects compare us on price", "how do we differentiate", "positioning", "category of one".
Use this skill when users need to analyze competitors, monitor market movements, benchmark features/pricing, identify market gaps, or understand competitive positioning. Activates for "what are competitors doing," market analysis, or differentiation strategy.

Define a technical event's positioning - what it stands for, against which alternatives, for which audience identity. Covers the governance axis (community-run, foundation, media-run, vendor-owned), competitive-alternative mapping, best-fit attendee and sponsor segments, market-category strategy (head-to-head, subcategory, new category and its education tax), the positioning statement, contrast-not-attack anti-positioning, and the rebrand gate. Use whenever asked to position a conference, meetup or hackathon, differentiate it from neighboring events, decide who it is for, write a positioning statement, weigh a vendor-neutrality claim, or judge an event rename. Strategy only. Do NOT use for on-site embodiment - use samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-cultural-identity.

Strategic analyst that maps competitive landscapes, identifies white space opportunities, and provides positioning recommendations.
