SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires python-pptx.

What problem does it solve? Creating a persuasive B2B sales deck is hard: most decks list product features instead of guiding buyers through a decision framework, leading to "no decision" outcomes. This Skill structures the entire narrative using April Dunford's 8-step sales pitch methodology, producing a slide-by-slide outline and an optional PPTX file. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured 17-Slide Narrative: Builds a two-phase deck (Setup and Follow-Through) covering provocative insight, status quo, disruption, alternatives, perfect world criteria, differentiated value, proof, objections, and the ask. - Repo-Aware Input Gathering: Automatically reads product briefs, messaging docs, competitor intel, testimonials, and personas from docs/inputs/ before asking targeted questions. - PPTX Generation: Includes a python-pptx script that converts the approved Markdown outline into a 16:9 presentation file. - Use Case: A sales team preparing for enterprise fintech prospects uses the Skill to turn their positioning doc and customer proof points into a decision-forcing pitch deck with action titles and speaker notes. ## Quick Start Create a B2B sales deck for enterprise DevOps leads using the docs in docs/inputs, ending with a request for a 15-minute technical deep dive.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a B2B sales deck with April Dunford's methodology?

Provide your target audience, provocative insight, buyer alternatives, and closing ask. The Skill reads your product brief, messaging, competitor intel, and testimonials from docs/inputs, then generates a 17-slide Markdown outline following the 8-step Setup and Follow-Through structure.

How do I convert a Markdown slide outline into a PPTX file?

Run the included generate_deck.py script with python-pptx installed: pip install python-pptx, then python generate_deck.py outline.md output.pptx. The script parses slide titles, bullets, and bold punchlines into a 16:9 presentation.

What input documents does the sales deck generator need?

It reads product_brief.md, messaging_positioning.md, competitor_intel.md, testimonials.md, and target_personas.md from docs/inputs. If any file is missing or empty, it asks you targeted questions to fill the gaps before generating.

Can I make a shorter version of the 17-slide sales deck?

Yes. The minimum viable deck uses 8 slides: 1, 2, 6, 9, 11, 12, 15, and 17. You can combine Status Quo and Alternatives into single slides and keep only the strongest differentiated capability.

Why should the product not appear in the first 10 slides?

The Setup phase establishes market context, disruption, and Perfect World criteria before introducing the product. This gives buyers a decision framework first, which combats no-decision paralysis and makes the product reveal feel inevitable.
