Distribution Disruption Scan

Make sure to use this skill whenever a new technology wave is emerging and growth strategy needs updating, existing channels are showing diminishing returns industry-wide, annual growth planning requires forward-looking channel assessment, competitors are investing in new platforms, or the team needs to identify the next big distribution opportunity — even if the request is about 'growth planning' or 'new channels' rather than explicitly about disruption scanning.

Make sure to use this skill whenever a growth team is stuck locally optimizing without finding new opportunities, the team is scattershot trying random ideas without a through line, a growth review needs to assess whether effort is balanced between finding new mountains and climbing the current one, or experimentation feels productive but metrics aren't moving — even if the request is about 'growth strategy' or 'experimentation' rather than explicitly about explore vs exploit.

Growth Prisoners Dilemma Free
Make sure to use this skill whenever ROI on a growth channel is declining but stopping feels riskier than continuing, increasing spend on a channel just to maintain position, all competitors are investing more for less return, evaluating whether to exit a commoditized channel, or diagnosing why growth spend keeps rising without proportional returns — even if the request is about 'growth efficiency' or 'channel ROI' rather than explicitly about the prisoner's dilemma.
