# Sales Skill
**Transform product documentation into compelling sales narratives and visual assets.**
Takes technical documentation, product information, or feature descriptions and produces:
1. **Sales Narratives** - Story explanations that capture the value proposition
2. **Visual Assets** - Charcoal sketch art that conveys the concept visually
3. **Scripts** - Clear, succinct, effective messaging tied to what you're selling
---
## The Pipeline
```
PRODUCT DOCUMENTATION
β
[1] STORY EXPLANATION β Extract the narrative arc (what's the real value?)
β
[2] EMOTIONAL REGISTER β What feeling should this evoke? (wonder, determination, hope, etc.)
β
[3] VISUAL CONCEPT β Derive scene from narrative + emotion
β
[4] GENERATE ASSETS β Create visual + narrative package
β
SALES-READY OUTPUT
```
---
## Workflows
### Full Sales Package β `Workflows/Create-sales-package.md`
**The complete pipeline.** Takes product docs and produces:
- Sales narrative (story explanation)
- Visual asset (charcoal sketch)
- Key talking points
### Sales Narrative Only β `Workflows/Create-narrative.md`
**Just the story.** Converts technical docs into compelling narrative.
### Visual Asset Only β `Workflows/Create-visual.md`
**Just the visual.** Creates charcoal sketch art for existing narrative.
---
## Output Format
### Sales Narrative
- 8-24 point story explanation
- First person, conversational
- Captures the "why this matters" not just "what it does"
- Ready for sales scripts, presentations, pitches
### Visual Asset
- Charcoal gestural sketch aesthetic
- Minimalist composition with breathing space
- Transparent background for versatility
- Captures the emotional core of the value proposition
---
## Example
**Input:** Technical documentation about AI code review tool
**Output:**
- **Narrative:** "This tool doesn't just find bugsβit understands your codebase like a senior engineer who's been there for years. It catches the subtle issues that slip through PR reviews..."
- **Visual:** Gestural sketch of human developer and AI figure collaborating, both examining the same code output
- **Talking Points:**
1. Senior engineer understanding, not just pattern matching
2. Catches what humans miss in PR reviews
3. Learns your specific codebase patterns
---
## Integration
This skill combines:
- **storyexplanation skill** - For narrative extraction
- **art skill (essay-art workflow)** - For visual generation
- **Sales-specific framing** - Value proposition focus
---
**The goal:** Sales teams get materials that are highly tied to what they're selling, clear, succinct, and effective.
---
## Examples
**Example 1: Full sales package from docs**
```
User: "create a sales package for this product" [provides docs]
β Extracts narrative arc using storyexplanation
β Determines emotional register (wonder, determination, hope)
β Generates charcoal sketch visual + narrative + talking points
```
**Example 2: Sales narrative only**
```
User: "turn this technical doc into a sales pitch"
β Reads documentation and extracts value proposition
β Creates 8-24 point story explanation in first person
β Returns conversational narrative ready for sales scripts
```
**Example 3: Visual asset for existing narrative**
```
User: "create a visual for this sales story"
β Analyzes narrative for emotional core
β Derives scene concept from story + emotion
β Generates charcoal gestural sketch with transparent background
```
This skill transforms technical product documentation into sales-ready materials: narratives, visual concepts, and concise scripts. It runs a pipeline that extracts the core value, selects an emotional register, and produces minimalist charcoal-style visual assets alongside talking points. Before performing any work, it issues a required voice notification announcing the workflow and action.
The skill ingests product docs or feature descriptions and runs a four-step pipeline: story explanation, emotional register selection, visual concept derivation, and asset generation. It calls supporting sub-skills for narrative extraction and art generation, then packages an 8β24 point first-person story, a gestural charcoal visual with transparent background, and key talking points. The workflow respects user customizations stored in a local preferences folder and will load those overrides when present.
Is there a mandatory notification before work begins?
Yes. The workflow requires a voice notification announcing the workflow and action before any other processing. This ensures team awareness and must be sent at invocation time.
Can I override defaults or change tone?
Yes. Place PREFERENCES.md or other configuration files in the designated local customization directory to override defaults, including tone, output length, and visual style.
