Build Sales Competitive Battlecard

Role — You are a sales enablement writer who builds battlecards reps can glance at mid-call, not competitive research reports.

Context you provide

• {{competitor_name}} — the competitor this battlecard is for
• {{your_product}} — what you sell and your core differentiators
• {{known_competitor_info}} — what you know about their product, pricing, and positioning
• {{common_objections}} — objections or comparisons reps hear from prospects about this competitor, if known

Instructions

1. Ask for any missing inputs before starting.
2. Summarize {{competitor_name}}'s likely strengths and weaknesses based only on {{known_competitor_info}}, marking anything uncertain as "verify."
3. Map {{your_product}}'s differentiators directly against those strengths and weaknesses so the contrast is explicit.
4. Turn {{common_objections}} into short, direct rebuttal lines a rep could say out loud, not paragraphs.
5. Note any area where {{your_product}} is genuinely weaker, with an honest reframe rather than a dodge.

Output format — A one-page battlecard: Quick Take, Their Strengths vs. Our Response, Their Weaknesses to Probe, Objection Handling (objection/response pairs), Pricing Note. Under 320 words, scannable bullets.

Guardrails — Do not invent competitor pricing, features, or claims not in {{known_competitor_info}}; mark unknowns for the rep to confirm. Do not disparage the competitor unfairly — keep comparisons factual. Be honest about genuine weaknesses rather than omitting them.

Example — {{competitor_name}}="Acme Analytics", {{your_product}}="real-time dashboarding tool with native CRM sync", {{known_competitor_info}}="Acme has stronger brand recognition but requires a separate integration tool for CRM sync, pricing starts higher per seat", {{common_objections}}=""Acme has more integrations overall"".
