## Documentation & README

# IMPACT Framework MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server providing B2B positioning and messaging tools based on the **IMPACT Framework** by Shashwat Ghosh.

## What is the IMPACT Framework?

**Messaging & Positioning for Better Storytelling**

The IMPACT Framework is a systematic approach to create sharp positioning, differentiated value proposition, and effective messaging designed to address each persona of the buying group.

| Phase | Component | Key Question |
|-------|-----------|--------------|
| **I** | IDENTIFY Champions | Who are your ideal customers and internal advocates? |
| **M** | MAP Reality & Alternatives | What's the competitive landscape and status quo? |
| **P** | PINPOINT Unique Value | What makes you genuinely different and valuable? |
| **A** | ANCHOR in Right Market | What context makes your value obvious? |
| **C** | CRAFT Core Message | How do you communicate this clearly and memorably? |
| **T** | TRANSLATE to Execution | How do you bring this to life across channels? |

> "Great positioning makes your product's value obvious to the customers who need it most. The IMPACT Framework ensures you get there systematically."

- **[EPIC](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@shashwatgtmalpha/gtm-alpha-mcp-server)** - GTM Execution (Ecosystem, Product-led, Inbound/Outbound, Community)

**Recommended flow:** IMPACT first (positioning) → then EPIC (go-to-market execution)
