Frequently Asked Questions

How does this ICP agent handle agencies with multiple niche specializations?

This agent can be run multiple times, each time focusing on a specific niche or ideal client segment the agency wishes to target. You would simply specify the different industry, company size, or pain point parameters in subsequent commands to generate distinct ICPs.

Can this agent help define the ICP for our *own* agency, not just for a client?

Absolutely. The primary use case is often for the agency itself to refine its own sales and marketing efforts. By inputting details about your agency's services and the types of clients you *want* to attract, the agent will construct an ICP that guides your internal growth strategy.
