| description | Transforms product documentation into sales-ready narrative packages combining story explanation, charcoal gestural sketch art, and talking points. Pipeline: extract narrative arc → determine emotional register (wonder, determination, hope) → derive visual scene → generate assets. Three workflows: CreateSalesPackage (full pipeline — narrative + charcoal sketch visual + key talking points), CreateNarrative (story only, 8-24 numbered points in first-person conversational voice, captures why-it-matters not what-it-does), CreateVisual (charcoal gestural sketch with transparent background for presentation versatility). Charcoal gestural sketch is the mandatory visual style — minimalist composition with breathing space. Output is tied directly to what's being sold — clear, succinct, effective. Integrates StoryExplanation (for narrative arc extraction) and Art essay-art workflow (for visual generation) internally. USE WHEN: sales, proposal, pitch deck, value proposition, sales narrative, sales deck, sales package, turn this into a pitch, create a sales story, sales materials, product pitch, transform docs to sales, sales script. NOT FOR Hormozi $100M frameworks, value equation, irresistible offer, or VOC mining (use _SALESHORMOZI). NOT FOR standalone diagrams or illustrations (use Art). |

Sales Skill
Transform product documentation into compelling sales narratives and visual assets.
Takes technical documentation, product information, or feature descriptions and produces:
- Sales Narratives - Story explanations that capture the value proposition
- Visual Assets - Charcoal sketch art that conveys the concept visually
- Scripts - Clear, succinct, effective messaging tied to what you're selling
The Pipeline
PRODUCT DOCUMENTATION
↓
[1] STORY EXPLANATION — Extract the narrative arc (what's the real value?)
↓
[2] EMOTIONAL REGISTER — What feeling should this evoke? (wonder, determination, hope, etc.)
↓
[3] VISUAL CONCEPT — Derive scene from narrative + emotion
↓
[4] GENERATE ASSETS — Create visual + narrative package
↓
SALES-READY OUTPUT
Workflows
Full Sales Package → Workflows/CreateSalesPackage.md
The complete pipeline. Takes product docs and produces:
- Sales narrative (story explanation)
- Visual asset (charcoal sketch)
- Key talking points
Sales Narrative Only → Workflows/CreateNarrative.md
Just the story. Converts technical docs into compelling narrative.
Visual Asset Only → Workflows/CreateVisual.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 bugs—it 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:
- Senior engineer understanding, not just pattern matching
- Catches what humans miss in PR reviews
- 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]
→ Extracts narrative arc using storyexplanation
→ Determines emotional register (wonder, determination, hope)
→ Generates charcoal sketch visual + narrative + talking points
Example 2: Sales narrative only
User: "turn this technical doc into a sales pitch"
→ Reads documentation and extracts value proposition
→ Creates 8-24 point story explanation in first person
→ Returns conversational narrative ready for sales scripts
Example 3: Visual asset for existing narrative
User: "create a visual for this sales story"
→ Analyzes narrative for emotional core
→ Derives scene concept from story + emotion
→ Generates charcoal gestural sketch with transparent background
Gotchas
- Charcoal sketch art is the visual style for sales assets. Don't use other art styles unless explicitly asked.
- Pitch decks must tell a STORY, not list features. Narrative arc matters more than bullet points.
- NOT for Hormozi frameworks — use _SALESHORMOZI for $100M Offers/Leads methodology.
Execution Log
After completing any workflow, append a single JSONL entry:
echo '{"ts":"'$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)'","skill":"Sales","workflow":"WORKFLOW_USED","input":"8_WORD_SUMMARY","status":"ok|error","duration_s":SECONDS}' >> ~/.claude/PAI/MEMORY/SKILLS/execution.jsonl
Replace WORKFLOW_USED with the workflow executed, 8_WORD_SUMMARY with a brief input description, and SECONDS with approximate wall-clock time. Log status: "error" if the workflow failed.
