Define the competitive trigger taxonomy
45-60 min
45-60 min
Create the trigger types that should create guidance, silent logging, or escalation. Include direct competitor mention, pricing objection, feature comparison, security concern, migration concern, incumbent renewal, procurement pushback, discount request, buyer confusion, and roadmap comparison. Map each trigger to severity, sales stage relevance, owner, approved guidance source, and whether the rep should receive a Slack alert. Add examples of phrases that should and should not trigger an alert so the system does not flood reps with low-value mentions. This taxonomy is the control layer that keeps the engine useful instead of noisy.
Competitive trigger taxonomy with severity, alert rules, silent-log rules, and escalation owners.
Noisy alert systems get muted. Treat silence as a feature: many mentions should be logged for analysis but not pushed to reps.
