GTM Planner
TurboAgents GTM Planner is an AI tool that turns your strategy into a ready-to-run go-to-market plan: positioning and messaging pillars, customer playbooks with objection handling, a channel mix whose budget shares add up to 100%, a phased campaign roadmap with KPIs, funnel targets, the sales assets to build and the review routine to keep it on track — sized to your budget, stage and timeline.
Turn the strategy into a launch — who to win, which channels, how much on each, in what order.
A strategy without a launch plan stays a document. Tick the Strategy Brief you saved on your brand — or upload one made elsewhere — and the market fills in from Brand Brain. Set the objective, the horizon, the budget, your stage and how you sell. The plan comes back phased and budgeted, with every figure stated as an estimate and every channel tied to a stage of the funnel.

What is GTM Planner?
The plan that decides whether a good product actually gets bought.
A go-to-market plan is how a product reaches its buyers and wins them: who exactly you are selling to, how you are positioned against the alternatives, which channels carry the message, in what sequence you launch, what you need to hand the sales team, and how you will know early whether it is working. It is the difference between a launch that compounds and a great product that never finds its market.
Done properly, it is weeks of senior work. TurboAgents reads your strategy and operationalises it — it does not restate the strategy, it turns it into campaigns, channels, budget shares, targets and assets, sized to your budget and the way you sell. The pieces every plan needs:
From plan to launch to scale
- Messaging pillars
- The three or four things you will say, each tied to a customer need, a promise, the proof and an example headline.
- Customer playbook
- One buyer type in depth — what triggers them, what they need, who influences them, and what to say when they object.
- Channel mix
- The channels you will use, each with its funnel stage, its job and its share of the budget.
- GTM motion
- How you sell — high-touch sales, product-led self-serve, retail or distributors, or a hybrid. It changes everything downstream.
The Problem
Most launches fail on distribution, not product. The thing works, but it goes to market as “everyone” across “every channel” on one big day — no sequence, no targets, and no way to tell early whether it is landing. A proper GTM plan is weeks of consultant time, so teams skip it and learn the hard way which buyer and which channel mattered.

More Than a Report
A checklist tells you to “pick channels.” This tells you which ones, in what order, for how much.
Most GTM templates hand you empty headings and leave the decisions to you. This makes the calls — a specific buyer, a budget split that adds up, a sequenced roadmap, the targets to watch — and says which numbers are estimates.
A buyer, not a market
Playbooks that include the objections
Launches die on “everyone”. Each playbook describes one buyer — what triggers them, what they need, who influences the decision — and, crucially, the objections they will raise and how to answer them. Pick a customer type from Brand Brain and it leads the first playbook.
Customer playbook
Ops lead · 50–200-person agency
TriggerLost a client to a scheduling mix-up
NeedsClient scheduling that isn’t email ping-pong
InfluencersAccount directors, finance
Objection“We already use a calendar tool.”
Response
Built for scheduling clients across a team — not one person’s diary.
Budgeted, and it adds up
Which channels — and how much on each
Every channel comes with its stage of the funnel, its job, the tactics and a share of your budget — and the shares always add up to 100%. Concentrate spend on the channels most likely to pay back instead of spreading it across ten.

Sequenced, not a date
A phased roadmap across your horizon
A launch is a sequence, not a day. The roadmap splits your 90 days, 6 months or 12 months into phases, each with named campaigns, the activities, the channels and the KPIs — so the team knows what happens when, and what must be ready before the next phase.

The targets to watch, stated as estimates
The plan sets funnel targets and leading indicators, kept consistent with your budget and typical conversion rates — and labelled as estimates, because that is what they are. Add a review routine and you know in week two, not at quarter end, whether it is landing.
