What each one does

Content Strategy Planner

  • Identifies content pillars and topic clusters aligned with your business and audience
  • Maps content ideas to buyer journey stages (awareness, consideration, decision, implementation)
  • Analyzes keyword data and customer research to find high-impact topics
  • Recommends specific content types (hub/spoke guides, templates, case studies, thought leadership)
  • Prioritizes searchable vs shareable content based on your goals

Sales Enablement

  • Builds 10-12 slide pitch decks tailored to different buyer types (technical, economic, champion)
  • Creates scannable one-pagers for post-meeting follow-ups, internal champions, and trade shows
  • Generates objection handling docs with ready responses for price, timing, competition, and status quo concerns
  • Designs ROI calculators and value propositions customized by persona (CTO, VP Sales, CFO, end user)
  • Produces demo scripts and talk tracks that guide reps through product walkthroughs
