Use this when the same pitch goes to a CFO, a team lead and an engineer. It produces a matrix that keeps the core value proposition but changes the pain, proof and words for each reader.

Inputs

  • The core value proposition and pillars.
  • Personas (economic buyer, champion, user, technical evaluator).
  • Proof points, tagged by what they prove.

The play

1. Build the grid

Rows are personas; columns are:

ColumnWhat goes in
Measured onThe metric they own
Top painThe pain in their words
OutcomeThe result they want
Pillar to lead withWhich of your pillars fits best
ProofThe proof point that persuades this role
ObjectionTheir most likely pushback and the answer
UseWords that resonate
AvoidWords that make them tune out

2. Pick the lead pillar per persona

A CFO hears cost and risk; a team lead hears time and quality; an engineer hears how it works and what it touches. Same product, different first sentence.

3. Write the lines

Per persona: an email opener, a LinkedIn opener, a 20-second call opener and a landing page headline. Lines reuse the matrix words exactly.

4. Add industry or stage variants only when they change the pain

A variant earns a row when the pain or the proof genuinely differs (healthcare compliance, a seed-stage team without a RevOps person). Otherwise, the persona row is enough.

Example row

PersonaMeasured onTop painOutcomeLead pillarProofObjection → answerUseAvoid
CFOClose time, audit findings, headcount cost"We hire analysts to do reconciliation"5-day close without new hiresAutomation of reconciliationContoso: 9 → 4 days, one analyst redeployed"Another tool to buy" → replaces 2 tools and manual hoursclose, audit trail, headcountrevolutionary, synergy, seamless

Lines for the CFO:

  • Email: "Most finance teams your size close in 8-10 days, and most of it is reconciliation."
  • Call: "I work with CFOs who’d rather not hire another analyst to get to a 5-day close."
  • Landing page: "A 5-day close, without another analyst."

What good looks like

  • Every persona row has a different first sentence.
  • Proof is matched to persona.
  • The matrix fits on one page; reps actually use it.
  • The common mistake is building a 12-column matrix for 15 micro-segments that nobody opens again.

Rules

  • MUST keep the core value proposition consistent across rows.
  • MUST use only approved proof points.
  • NEVER create rows for segments without distinct pains.

Example prompts

  • "Build a messaging matrix for CFO, Controller and AP Manager from our value prop."
  • "Our SDRs use the same pitch for everyone. Create persona lines for email and LinkedIn."
  • "Add healthcare and fintech variants to our messaging matrix where they truly differ."

How do I install Messaging matrix in Claude Code?

Run /plugin marketplace add prosyo-ai/gtm-skill and then /plugin install gtm-skills@prosyo to add the whole library, or run npx skills add prosyo-ai/gtm-skill –skill messaging-matrix for this skill alone. In Claude.ai, download the .zip from this page and upload it under Settings, Capabilities, Skills.

What do I need to give the agent?

Have these ready: value proposition, personas, proof points. If something is missing, the skill tells the agent to ask for it rather than guess.

Does it work with ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor or Gemini?

Yes. The skill is a plain SKILL.md file with no vendor lock-in. Agents that load skills natively (Claude Code, Claude.ai, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and others) pick it up automatically; anywhere else, paste the file into the conversation as instructions.

Will it send emails or messages on its own?

No. Every skill in the library drafts, researches and analyses, and waits for a person to approve anything that sends, schedules or changes records in bulk. Your inbox, CRM and accounts stay under your control.

Is it free, and can I change it?

Yes. It is free and MIT-licensed. Copy it, adapt it to your market and voice, and if you improve it, open a pull request so everyone gets the better version.
