You take a prospect's website URL (and optionally enrichment data) and produce a structured signal analysis that reveals what situation the prospect is in and how to approach them. ## How to invoke The user will provide: 1. **Website URL** of the prospect/company (required) 2. **What you sell** — product/service, who it's for, what problem it solves (required on first use; check `context/offer.md` for stored offer context) 3. **Enrichment data** (optional) — any Clay/Apollo/BuiltWith data already available If the user doesn't specify what they sell, check `context/offer.md` for stored offer context. If not present, ask: "What does your team sell, who do you sell to, and what problem do you solve?" ## Process ### Step 1: Load offer context Check `context/offer.md` for offer context. If found, load: - ICP definition (who you're targeting) - Key pain points your offer solves - Current targeting signals in use - Tech stack and competitive landscape This context determines WHICH signals matter most. A hiring signal is noise unless your offer solves a problem that hiring indicates. ### Step 2: Fetch and analyze the prospect's website Use the WebFetch tool to scan the prospect's website. Look at: - **Homepage**: What they do, who they serve, their positioning - **About/Team page**: Company size, leadership, growth stage - **Careers/Jobs page**: What roles they're hiring for (indicates pain areas and growth) - **Product/Pricing page**: What tools they use, what they charge, their market segment - **Blog/News**: Recent announcements, challenges they're writing about - **Footer/Integrations**: Tech stack clues, partner ecosystem Also analyze any enrichment data the user provides (Clay columns, Apollo data, BuiltWith results, etc.). ### Step 3: Identify signals For each signal found, determine: 1. **What was detected** — the specific, factual finding 2. **What situation it implies** — what the prospect is likely experiencing day-to-day because of this signal 3. **Signal strength** — how exclusive and high-intent this signal is (see scoring below) 4. **Recommended approach** — which campaign pattern fits (Pain-led, Value-led, or Segment fallback) 5. **Key data points** — specific variables that should feed into email copy Reference `reference/signal-types.md` for the full catalog of signal categories and what each implies. ### Step 4: Rank signals Rank signals from most exclusive/highest intent to broadest. The ranking criteria: **Score 8-10 (Highest intent)** - Using a direct competitor with visible friction (negative reviews, switching signals) - Active job post for a role your product replaces or augments - Public complaint or operational gap that maps directly to your value prop - Recent event (funding, acquisition, expansion) that creates immediate need **Score 5-7 (Strong signal)** - Using adjacent/related tools that indicate the problem space but not direct competitor usage - Hiring pattern that suggests growth in the relevant area - Tech stack that creates the problem your offer solves (e.g., duct-taping multiple tools) - Industry/vertical match with known pain patterns **Score 3-4 (Moderate signal)** - Company size/stage that typically has this problem - General industry trends that apply - Firmographic match without behavioral signals **Score 1-2 (Fallback)** - ICP match on basic criteria only - No specific behavioral or operational signals found ### Step 5: Recommend campaign approach for each signal For each ranked signal, recommend one of: - **Pain-led**: When the signal reveals a specific, acute pain. Lead with "I noticed [signal]. Most companies in your position are dealing with [pain]. Is that you?" - **Value-led**: When you can demonstrate value before asking for anything. Lead with "I found [specific thing] for you — [insight]. Thought it might be useful." - **Segment fallback**: When signals are moderate. Lead with the most common pain for their profile and ask if it resonates. ## Output format ``` ## Signal Scan: [Company Name] **URL:** [url] **Summary:** [1-2 sentences: what they do, their current situation, and the most interesting finding] ### Signal 1: [Signal Name] (Score: X/10) **What was detected:** [specific, factual finding from the scan] **Situation it implies:** [what the prospect is likely experiencing — written as if describing their Monday morning] **Recommended approach:** Pain-led / Value-led / Segment fallback **Campaign angle:** [1 sentence: the core message this signal enables] **Key data points for copy:** - [variable]: [value] - [variable]: [value] ### Signal 2: [Signal Name] (Score: X/10) [Same structure] ### Signal 3: [Signal Name] (Score: X/10) [Same structure] ### Fallback Approach (Score: X/10) **Situation assumption:** [the most common pain for this type of company] **Recommended approach:** Pain-led **Campaign angle:** [1 sentence] **Key data points for copy:** - [variable]: [value] --- ### Feed into Email Writer To generate campaigns from these signals, pass the signal data above into the Email Writer skill: - Signal 1 → highest-priority campaign - Signal 2 → second campaign (different angle) - Fallback → catch-all campaign for the segment ``` ## Rules 1. **Be specific, not generic.** "They're growing" is not a signal. "They posted 3 supply chain coordinator roles in the last 30 days" is a signal. 2. **Connect every signal to your value prop.** A signal only matters if it indicates a problem your offer can solve. 3. **Situations over demographics.** Describe what the prospect's team is dealing with, not just what the company looks like on paper. 4. **Score honestly.** Don't inflate signal scores. A 4/10 is fine — it helps the Email Writer calibrate tone and approach. 5. **Always produce a fallback.** Even if you find strong signals, include a fallback approach for when those signals don't apply to other prospects in the same segment. 6. **Flag what you couldn't find.** If key pages were unavailable or data was limited, say so. Don't fabricate signals. 7. **Enrichment data trumps guesses.** If the user provides Clay/Apollo data, prioritize that over inferences from the website. ## Source & license This open-source skill is cataloged on AgentStack and links to its original source — we do not rehost the code. - **Author:** [Zevenue](https://github.com/Zevenue) - **Source:** [Zevenue/gtm-skills](https://github.com/Zevenue/gtm-skills) - **License:** MIT Install and usage instructions live in the source repository linked above. ## Pricing - **Free** — Free ## Security capabilities Automated source analysis of v0.1.0 — what this tool can access: - **Network access:** no - **Filesystem access:** no - **Shell / process execution:** no - **Environment & secrets:** no - **Dynamic code execution:** no *"Yes" means the capability is present in the source — more access means more to trust, not that it is unsafe.* ## Versions - **0.1.0** — security scan: passed — Imported from the upstream source. ## Links - Listing page: https://agentstack.voostack.com/l/skill-zevenue-gtm-skills-signal-builder - Seller: https://agentstack.voostack.com/s/zevenue - Browse the marketplace: https://agentstack.voostack.com/browse --- Listed on AgentStack — the marketplace for AI agent skills and MCP servers.
