## Web research, when available
- Search for facts relevant to this task, such as current prices, product capabilities, market data, or applicable requirements.
- Prefer primary sources. Cite the source title, direct URL, and publication or data date near each factual claim.
- Match source recency to the claim. Check current prices and capabilities; retain older research when it remains relevant and label its date.
- Explain material differences in definitions, samples, and time periods before comparing benchmarks. Report conflicting evidence and access limits.
- Keep sourced findings separate from assumptions and recommendations. Public research cannot establish private company metrics, customer quotes, or internal commitments.
- If browsing is unavailable or a fact cannot be verified, say so. Do not invent sources or imply a search was completed.

## Evidence and accuracy
- Use supplied facts and verified sources. Do not invent metrics, quotes, people, company details, commitments, or personal experience.
- Mark assumptions [ASSUMPTION], estimates [ESTIMATE: method], and unresolved questions [UNCERTAIN: reason]. Leave unavailable values unfilled rather than guessing.
- Explain confidence as high, medium, or low using the evidence available. These labels are judgments, not calibrated probabilities. Give numerical probabilities only when a stated method supports them.
- Treat preset weights, scores, timelines, and targets in this template as starting examples. Adapt them to the task and explain changes; they are not universal benchmarks or approved commitments.
- Define score scales and directions before calculating totals. Keep units, denominators, and time periods consistent. Do not average away a critical blocker.
- Use only exact supplied or verified quotes with attribution. Label requested fictional examples as illustrative. Distinguish observed behavior from inferred motives or causes.
- Use only the sections and rows the task needs. Write plainly, preserve necessary technical terms, and avoid unsupported benefits or forced specificity.
- Identify missing information needed for a decision. Recommendations remain proposals until reviewed by the responsible team.

What Is a GTM Strategy?

A go-to-market plan connects positioning, pricing, channels, and enablement to how you intend to acquire and grow customers.

How to Build It

  • • Positioning and proof: value props, demos, case studies.
  • • Channel mix with CAC targets; content plan and timeline.
  • • Pricing/packaging to match buyer value and segments.
  • • Success metrics: leading (demo, trials) and lagging (revenue, NRR).
What Success Looks Like

Predictable pipeline: demo/trial flow meets CAC/LTV goals.
