A complete persona analysis for The Force for Health® Network. We mapped 40 personas across 7 gears, scored each by economic value, multi-gear pull, and buying authority — then ranked the Top 5 Ideal Customer Profiles that should command 80% of marketing and sales attention from now through Q1 2029.

The Strategic Frame

We lead with persona, not gear.

Organizing by gear is product-centric thinking. At the $1B target, we need buyer-centric clarity. Our ICP is an economic question, not a product question.

01

One buyer pulls many gears.

A state public health department doesn't buy "Academy" — they buy a prevention solution that bundles PHIT data, Reality Health Games, Workforce Development, and the Chamber of Health channel. Gear-first thinking misses the multi-gear contract value where the real ACV lives.

02

ICP equals economic fit.

An ICP is the buyer with the highest LTV, shortest sales cycle, lowest CAC, and best expansion potential. That's a who, not a what. Gears are how we deliver value; personas are how we capture it.

03

Our motion runs on buyers.

One Director of Population Health at a hospital system signs one MSA — that's one sales motion delivering all 7 gears. The Chamber of Health Director network is our distributed force, but they sell to buyers first, gears second.

The 7 Gears, Ranked by Revenue Potential

Not all gears are created equal.

PHIT Scores & Data and the Chamber of Health channel command the highest ACV and most defensible economics. Academy and Games are the engagement engine that makes the rest sticky.

The Top 5 Ideal Customer Profiles

Where the next $1 billion comes from.

Ranked by weighted economic value (ACV × multi-gear pull × cycle speed × expansion × strategic fit). Each ICP has a clear entry wedge, expansion path, and 3-year revenue line.

What Keeps Them Up at Night

The pain we sell into.

Every Tier-1 ICP carries a stack of operational, financial, and political pains. These are the words they use, the budget pressure they feel, and the gear that solves it. Use this directly in discovery calls and ROI conversations.

The Full Persona × Gear Matrix
