ICP Prompt

Help me define my ICP (ideal customer profile). Walk me through it step by step. Start by asking me to name 3 real paying customers I'd want 100 more of. For each one, ask me: what do they do, how big are they, what tools they use, why they bought, what they said when they signed up, and what they were frustrated with before. Then find the patterns across all 3, not just demographics, but emotional drivers, exact phrases they use, workflow habits, and what triggered them to buy. Once we have that, help me define:

  • A one-line summary of who this person is
  • Demographics (company size, revenue, team, market)
  • Their deeper situation (what they feel but don't always say)
  • Workflow habits that predict they'll love my product
  • Trigger events that make them active buyers
  • Buying signals (what they say when they're ready)
  • The anti-profile (who is NOT my customer)
  • Messaging angles that would resonate

Don't give me a generic persona. Give me something I can use to make product decisions, write copy, and qualify leads.
