Before Starting

开始之前

Check for product marketing context first: If
.agents/product-marketing-context.md
exists (or
.claude/product-marketing-context.md
in older setups), read it before asking questions. Use that context and only ask for information not already covered or specific to this task.
首先检查产品营销上下文: 如果存在
.agents/product-marketing-context.md
(旧版配置中为
.claude/product-marketing-context.md
),请在提问前先阅读该文件。利用其中的上下文信息,仅询问未涵盖或与本次任务相关的特定信息。

Partner Identification Framework

合作伙伴识别框架

1. Audience Overlap Analysis

1. 受众重叠分析

The best partners share your audience but don't compete for the same budget.
Ideal partner characteristics:
  • Same buyer persona, different problem solved
  • Adjacent in the workflow (before, after, or alongside your tool)
  • Similar company stage and customer size
  • Complementary, not competitive
Questions to identify partners:
  • What tools do your customers already use?
  • What do they use before/after your product?
  • Who else is selling to your ICP?
  • Which integrations do customers request most?
最佳合作伙伴与你的受众群体重合,但不会争夺相同预算。
理想合作伙伴特征:
  • 拥有相同的买家角色,解决不同的问题
  • 在工作流程中处于相邻环节(你的工具之前、之后或同时使用)
  • 公司阶段和客户规模相似
  • 功能互补,而非竞争关系
用于识别合作伙伴的问题:
  • 你的客户已经在使用哪些工具?
  • 他们在使用你的产品之前/之后会用什么?
  • 还有哪些厂商在向你的理想客户画像(ICP)销售产品?
  • 客户最常请求哪些集成?

2. Partner Scoring Criteria

2. 合作伙伴评分标准

Rate potential partners (1-5) on:
CriteriaWhat to Evaluate

Brand alignmentWould you be proud to be associated?
Engagement qualityDo they have an active, engaged audience?
Reciprocity potentialCan you offer them equal value?
Ease of executionDo they have a partnerships team? History of co-marketing?
按照1-5分对潜在合作伙伴进行评分:
评估标准评估要点
受众匹配度他们的受众与你的ICP匹配程度如何?
受众规模他们的触达范围是否值得合作?
品牌契合度你是否愿意与之建立关联?
用户参与质量他们是否拥有活跃、高参与度的受众?
互惠潜力你能为他们提供对等价值吗?
执行难度他们是否有合作团队?是否有co-marketing的过往经验?
