Segment, offer, motion, channels, scoreboard — one page for the next 90 days.

A GTM strategy template is the worksheet for how you enter a segment. It is not the year-long marketing plan and not the business model canvas. Fill this after positioning is chosen. The how-to for the head term stays on /guides/gtm-strategy.

What belongs on a GTM strategy template?

ICP, offer, motion (sales-led, PLG, partner), channels you will actually run, the first-90-day scoreboard, and the risks that would kill the motion.

Fields to fill

Segment / ICP

One account profile. A second ICP is a second sheet.

Offer

What they buy, packaged in their words.

Motion

Who runs the first conversation and how it closes.

Channels

Only the ones with an owner this quarter.

Scoreboard

Pipeline, win rate, or PQLs — one primary number.

Kill criteria

What would make you stop the motion at day 90.

How to fill this template

  1. Steal the ICP from the ICP template

    Do not invent a new segment here.

  2. Name one motion

    PLG and enterprise in the same 90 days is two plans.

  3. Link the BMC channels

    If a channel is not on the canvas, it will not get staffed.

GTM strategy vs GTM plan template?

Strategy is the motion. The plan template is the week-by-week. Fill strategy first.
