anticipatory-selling

anticipatory-selling is a skill for Claude Code from VoxTechnologies/anty-framework. It costs 76 tokens per session (1,195 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A sales-support workflow for late-stage deals, where a buyer may need approval from a manager, finance team, procurement, or a board. It produces five materials: a competitor comparison, three-year total cost of ownership analysis, proposal template, objection responses, and phased implementation timeline.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps prepare competitive comparisons, cost analyses, internal proposals, answers to objections, and implementation plans for pipeline steps 5 through 7 or deals needing committee approval.
Why use it?
It addresses the work needed after a buyer is interested but must persuade other decision-makers. The materials give them information to use during internal approval.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

anticipatory-selling scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 121 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Anticipatory Selling

When to Apply

  • Deal reaches pipeline Step 5 (Overview Presented)
  • Win rates at Steps 5-7 are declining
  • Buyer needs internal approval or committee sign-off
  • When the founder asks "how do I close this deal?"
  • Proactively when pipeline has deals approaching Step 5

Core Principle

"You're not selling to the buyer — you're arming them to sell internally."

By the time a deal reaches Step 5, the buyer is often convinced. The real challenge is helping them convince their boss, CFO, procurement team, or board. Anticipatory selling provides pre-built ammunition for that internal sale.

Core Framework

5 Materials Package (Auto-Generated)

1. Competitive Comparison Table

Structure:

| Capability      | Us         | Competitor A | Competitor B |
|-----------------|------------|-------------|-------------|
| [Core feature]  | [strength] | [strength]  | [weakness]  |
| [Pricing model] | [detail]   | [detail]    | [detail]    |
| [Support]       | [detail]   | [detail]    | [detail]    |
| Best for        | [use case] | [use case]  | [use case]  |

Rules:

  • Honest, not adversarial — acknowledge competitor strengths
  • Use cases where each excels
  • Price comparison using public data only
  • "Best for" framing rather than "better than"

2. 3-Year TCO Analysis

Include ALL costs, not just license price:

  • Software license/subscription (3-year total)
  • Implementation and setup costs
  • Training and onboarding time (monetized)
  • Ongoing maintenance and administration
  • Integration costs with existing stack
  • Opportunity cost of alternatives (including "do nothing")

Format: side-by-side comparison with status quo and 1-2 alternatives.

3. Internal Proposal Template

Pre-written template the buyer can adapt and send to their decision-maker:

  • Executive summary (2-3 sentences)
  • Problem statement (grounded in buyer's specific pain)
  • Proposed solution (mapped to their needs from Step 3-4)
  • Expected ROI with conservative estimates
  • Implementation timeline (phased, low-risk)
  • Risk mitigation plan
  • Next steps and decision timeline

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
