Turn Sales Signals into Strategy
B2B Sales Battlecards is a practical decision-support system for sales managers who need clarity, not noise.
The Battlecards app helps you turn scattered deal opinions, CRM notes, and gut feelings into structured account intelligence - so you can prioritize opportunities, coach effectively, and allocate resources with confidence.
The Battlecards book explains why the system works, how to interpret what you see, and how to use battlecards as a repeatable management discipline, not just another sales tool.
Together, they form one integrated method for strategic sales management.
How it’s used in practice:
Sales representatives complete a battlecard for each key account, capturing structured intelligence about the customer’s business context, capabilities, relationships, risks, and constraints. This shared, consistent input becomes the foundation for management discussions - replacing subjective deal opinions with visible patterns and trade-offs. During the meetings, managers use completed battlecards to run focused brainstorming and coaching sessions, test assumptions, identify gaps, and explore strategic options together with the rep. The structured format also makes battlecards well-suited for AI-supported analysis, helping sales reps to prepare for reviews by surfacing risks, alternative interpretations, and potential strategic moves—while keeping human judgment firmly in control.
What the Battlecards App Does
The app gives sales managers a shared analytical language to evaluate accounts consistently across the team.
Using structured inputs, it helps you assess:
- Customer context (business model, growth stage, market relevance)
- Organizational capability (management, sales, marketing execution)
- Positioning and fit (price vs. quality, channel mix)
- Relationship strength and stakeholder power
- Constraints and risks (procurement, budget, legal, security)
- Overall opportunity health, with clear signals for action
Instead of hearing “this deal feels good”, you see why it is strong - or why it is fragile.
Battlecards are not activity tracking.
They are judgment scaffolding for better decisions.
Why the Book Matters
The app shows what to look at.
The book explains how to think about it.
The Battlecards book is written for sales managers who want to:
- Understand why certain deals stall despite strong relationships
- Learn how capability gaps, power dynamics, and constraints really shape outcomes
- Run better coaching conversations, focused on strategy—not status updates
- Develop reps’ strategic thinking, not just pipeline hygiene
- Build organizational learning, not isolated deal knowledge
It explains the logic behind every assessment dimension, shows real-world patterns, and helps managers interpret signals correctly - especially in complex B2B environments. BattlecardsPDF
One System, Two Roles
