## What This Skill Does

This skill transforms your OpenClaw agent into a personal B2B sales coach and pipeline manager. It applies the same methodology that built Alibaba's legendary direct sales force — the "Iron Army" that grew Alibaba.com from zero to market dominance across China's SMB sector.

Unlike generic CRM tools, this skill encodes *sales thinking*, not just data storage. Your agent will tell you **who to call, when, why, and how** — based on proven rhythms, not gut feel.

**Data lives locally.** No SaaS subscription. No API keys. Your pipeline in plain markdown files.

## The Methodology: Alibaba Iron Army Framework

Before using this skill, understand the philosophy your agent now operates on:

### Principle 1: The Boiling Water Theory (烧水理论)
Every customer relationship is like water heating toward boiling (closing). A first visit gets the water to 70°C. Consistent follow-up brings it to 100°C (close). **A gap that's too long lets the water cool back to cold** — and you restart from scratch. Your agent tracks the "temperature" of every lead and alerts you before deals go cold.

### Principle 2: Three-Step Sprint Cycle (三步一杀)
Every 4-week cycle follows this rhythm:
- **Week 1 — Seed (播种)**: Maximum outreach. Volume is the foundation. Target 40+ touches.
- **Week 2 — Flip (翻牌)**: Filter ruthlessly. Identify the top 30% worth pursuing. Walk away from the rest.
- **Week 3 — Harvest (采果)**: Close sprint. Push every qualified lead to YES or NO. No gray zones.
- **Week 4 — Reset (机动)**: Handle onboarding, collect payment, start seeding next cycle.

### Principle 3: The 8-Visit Daily Structure (每日八访)
A productive sales day consists of:
- 4 × New customer visits/calls (seed phase)
- 2 × Follow-up visits (nur...

## What Is This?

**Sales Rhythm Tracker** turns your OpenClaw agent into a B2B sales coach that tells you *who to call, when, why, and how* — every single day.

It encodes the **Alibaba Iron Army (阿里铁军)** methodology — the same sales operating system that built Alibaba's B2B direct sales force from zero, trained 10,000+ salespeople, and was later adopted by companies like Meituan, Didi, and hundreds of Chinese startups.

This is not a generic CRM. It's a **sales thinking engine** built on proven frameworks.

---

## Why This Works

Most CRM tools track data. This skill encodes *behavior* — the daily rhythms, weekly sprint cycles, customer psychology frameworks, and closing tactics that separate top performers from average ones.

**The core insight**: Sales performance is 80% rhythm and 20% talent. The Iron Army proved this by making ordinary people extraordinary through discipline and system.
