Category and Point of View
Define your contrarian truth, the old way you stand against, and a named method your market can repeat.
Message Hierarchy and Proof Architecture
Choose the words you own, write your one-liner and 30-second intro, and organize proof that removes doubt.
Visual Authority Checklist
Audit photography, color, typography and consistency so every touchpoint signals premium before anyone reads a word.
