You'll learn how to: Use the Strategy Coach to turn your rough positioning, problem statement, and source materials into a structured Strategy Map that seeds the rest of your Strategy tabs.
Time: 5-10 minutes to draft. Review and refine as needed.
Prereqs: You have some sense of the problem you solve or the market you serve. Don't worry about perfection yet.
Why the Strategy Coach matters
Your positioning, problem statement, services, and manifesto are the foundation that Nynch uses to score prospects, draft replies, suggest deal structures, and coach you in real time. The Strategy Coach compresses that work by letting you paste loose thinking and source material (frameworks, book notes, your house rules) and having it synthesize a draft Strategy Map that you then approve into the individual Strategy tabs.
A well-tuned strategy makes every other AI feature in Nynch sharper.
Steps
- At the bottom-left of the sidebar, toggle to Strategy mode.
- Click Strategy Coach.
You'll see two text areas:
- What problem do you solve?: Your rough problem statement or positioning.
- Coach source material: Frameworks, book excerpts, playbooks, or house rules you want the coach to use.
Fill in What problem do you solve? with a paragraph or two describing the core problem your clients face or the transformation you create. This can be messy. Examples:
- "Solo consultants struggle to land high-value clients. They network but rarely convert because they're not positioning themselves as the only choice."
- "Founders in the first year feel isolated and make expensive early mistakes because they don't have peer community."
(Optional) In Coach source material, paste frameworks or reference material you want to influence the strategy:
- A page from a positioning book.
- Your internal playbook or principles.
- An existing pitch or case study that captures your approach.
- Competitive research or category insights.
Click Save guidance.
Click Draft Strategy Map.
The Strategy Coach will synthesize your input and present a draft Strategy Map with sections like:
- Core problem statement
- Ideal client profile summary
- Positioning statement or point of view
- Services / offerings sketch
- Key differentiators
- Review the draft. If it rings true, click Approve or Next to start populating the individual Strategy tabs (Problem Statement, ICP, Services & Pricing, Manifesto, Launch Kit).
If the draft missed the mark, edit your inputs and re-run the draft, or manually refine it in the individual tabs.
Drafting tips
- Be concrete, not generic. "Contractors bid jobs based on gut, not data" is clearer than "improve decision-making."
- Name the person and the cost. "A wedding planner spends 40 hours on a $15k event they lose because they under-priced" is stronger than "pricing is hard."
- Paste real examples. If you have a case study or client email saying "this changed our business," paste it. The coach learns from specifics.
- Include your opinion. Your positioning is not true for everyone, it's true for you. "The old way is broken because X" is valuable.
Edit your guidance later
The coach's guidance stays in the Strategy Coach screen. If you want to refine your strategy later:
- Return to the Strategy Coach.
- Edit the guidance or source material.
- Click Save guidance.
- Run Draft Strategy Map again to see a new draft.
If something goes wrong
- Symptom: "The draft is completely off-target." → Fix: The source material may be too generic. Try pasting more specific frameworks or case studies. Or rewrite your problem statement in plainer, more concrete language.
- Symptom: "I don't see a Draft Strategy Map button." → Fix: You may not have saved your guidance first. Click Save guidance and try again.
- Symptom: "The draft is good but I want to refine one section." → Fix: After approval, you can edit individual tabs (Problem Statement, Services & Pricing, Manifesto, etc.) directly. The draft is a starting point, not a lock.
