What it does

Market Research Analysis is an agent skill from manojbajaj95/claude-gtm-plugin. Comprehensive market research and analysis skill. Use when sizing markets, conducting competitive analysis, generating professional market research reports, analyzing consumer behavior, or identifying market opportunities. Activates for: market research, market analysis, market report, TAM SAM SOM, market sizing, industry analysis, market landscape, competitive landscape, market trends, consumer research, Porter's Five Forces, PESTLE, SWOT, BCG Matrix, McKinsey-style report, consulting report, market opportunity…

Its SKILL.md is about 2.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 10 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `assets/FORMATTING_GUIDE.md`, `references/data_analysis_patterns.md` and `references/report_structure_guide.md`).

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Market research, Startup and business strategy and Market sizing. It works with LaTeX and Asana. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Conducting competitive analysis
  • Generating professional market research reports
  • Analyzing consumer behavior
  • Identifying market opportunities

Example prompts

  • “/market-research-analysis”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Define Scope
  2. Calculate TAM (Top-Down)
  3. Calculate SAM
  4. Calculate SOM
  5. Bottom-Up Validation

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0830a46. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Market Research Analysis loads about 2.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~22k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 160 tokens; SKILL.md has 925 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~160
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.6k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~22k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Comprehensive market research and analysis skill. Use when sizing markets, conducting competitive analysis, generating professional market research reports, analyzing consumer behavior, or identifying market opportunities. Activates for: market research, market analysis, market report, TAM SAM SOM, market sizing, industry analysis, market landscape, competitive landscape, market trends, consumer research, Porter's Five Forces, PESTLE, SWOT, BCG Matrix, McKinsey-style report, consulting report, market opportunity, industry report, due diligence, M&A analysis, GTM market analysis, product-market fit validation.

Market Research & Analysis

Workspace Context

Read bootstrap context before asking questions: strategy/brand.md for brand, audience, offer, channels, tools, constraints, and metrics; about/me.md for personal voice; content/ideas.md and content/calendar.md for content planning. Use legacy product-marketing context files only as fallback. Save generated drafts to content/<platform>/drafts/YYYY-MM-DD_short-topic-slug.md, and route durable learnings back to strategy/brand.md, about/me.md, or content/ideas.md.

Operating Contract

This skill is self-contained for its frontmatter scope: use its local instructions, references, scripts, and assets as the playbook; ask only for missing task-specific inputs; hand off to adjacent skills instead of expanding scope; and return an actionable artifact, decision, plan, draft, or diagnostic.

Expert market research skill — from market sizing and competitive analysis through consumer research and professional consulting-grade reports with LaTeX formatting and visual generation.


Quick Start

Choose your workflow:

  1. Market Sizing — TAM/SAM/SOM calculations
  2. Competitive Analysis — Landscape mapping and positioning
  3. Consumer Research — Surveys, interviews, behavior analysis
  4. Professional Report — 50+ page consulting-style report with LaTeX + visuals

Market Sizing (TAM → SAM → SOM)

Step 1: Define Scope
  • Product/service being analyzed
  • Geography (target regions)
  • Customer segment (who specifically)
  • Time frame (current year or 5-year projection)
Step 2: Calculate TAM (Top-Down)
TAM = Total market demand at 100% market share
= (Total potential customer base) × (avg contract value)

Data sources: Gartner, Forrester, IBISWorld, government statistics, trade associations
Step 3: Calculate SAM
SAM = Portion of TAM you can realistically serve
Apply filters: geographic constraints, product limitations, customer size constraints
Typically 5-20% of TAM
Step 4: Calculate SOM
SOM = Realistic near-term market share (1-3 years)
Conservative benchmarks:
  Year 1: 0.1-0.5% of SAM
  Year 2: 0.5-2% of SAM
  Year 3: 1-5% of SAM
Step 5: Bottom-Up Validation
Bottom-up = (realistic target customers) × (conversion rate) × (ACV)
If top-down SOM / bottom-up > 3x → revisit top-down assumptions

Competitive Landscape Analysis

Competitor Categories
TypeDefinitionExample
DirectSame product, same customerAsana vs Monday.com
IndirectDifferent product, same problemAsana vs Excel
SubstituteAlternative way to address needAsana vs consultants
PotentialCould enter market easilyMicrosoft, Google
Competitive Intelligence Sources
  • Company websites (pricing, features, positioning)
  • App store reviews (G2, Capterra — look for "appears X times" keywords)
  • Crunchbase (funding, valuation, growth trajectory)
  • Job postings (what they're investing in)
  • LinkedIn (employee count trends, key hires)
  • Gartner Magic Quadrant (market positioning)
Positioning Map Template

Create a 2D matrix:

  • X-axis: Price (Low → High)
  • Y-axis: Feature complexity / target segment (Simple → Advanced)

Plot all competitors. Look for gaps — unserved or underserved quadrants = market opportunity.


Core Analysis Frameworks

Porter's Five Forces (rate each High / Medium / Low)
  1. Threat of New Entrants — Barriers to entry, capital requirements, brand loyalty
  2. Supplier Power — Concentration, switching costs, substitute inputs
  3. Buyer Power — Concentration, price sensitivity, switching costs
  4. Threat of Substitutes — Alternatives, switching costs, price/performance tradeoff
  5. Competitive Rivalry — Number of competitors, industry growth, differentiation
PESTLE Analysis
DimensionKey Questions
PoliticalRegulatory environment, trade policies
EconomicGrowth rates, inflation, currency risks
SocialDemographics, consumer behavior shifts
TechnologicalDisruptive technologies, R&D activity
LegalCompliance requirements, IP landscape
EnvironmentalSustainability trends, regulations
SWOT + BCG Matrix

For competitive landscape: map competitors on BCG Matrix (market growth vs market share) to identify Stars, Cash Cows, Question Marks, Dogs.


Consumer Research

Survey Design

Van Westendorp Pricing: Ask customers 4 questions to find optimal price point:

  1. At what price is this too expensive to consider?
  2. At what price is this so cheap you doubt the quality?
  3. At what price does this start to feel expensive (but not off the table)?
  4. At what price is this a great value/bargain?

Plot cumulative % — OPP (Optimal Price Point) = intersection of "too expensive" and "too cheap."

Anti-pattern: Never use leading questions ("Don't you think our innovative product..."). Always include negative response options.

Interview Framework

For qualitative research:

  • Define clear research objectives first
  • Minimum 5-10 interviews for directional insight, 15-20 for patterns
  • Focus on jobs to be done and pain points, not feature preferences
  • Capture verbatim language — exact phrases are more valuable than summaries
Show full SKILL.md (366 more words)Show less
Quality Checklist
  • Research objectives clearly defined and measurable
  • Sample is representative of target market
  • Mix of qualitative (why) and quantitative (how many) methods
  • No leading or biased questions
  • Insights are actionable, not just "interesting facts"
  • Limitations acknowledged
