<aside> 🧱
Part 1 of 3. Before you send anything. What you sell, who has the problem, how you measure the whole thing, and what you actually lead with.
</aside>
Get this part wrong and nothing downstream can save you. Perfect copy sent to the wrong list with the wrong offer still produces zero meetings.
| Stage | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Stage 1 - What: The Offer | One pain, one outcome, one buyer. Bad offer plus perfect list still equals no meetings. |
| Stage 2 - Who: The ICP | Problem-first qualification. The list IS the message. Signals, not firmographics. |
| Stage 3 - The Funnel That Actually Works | All 7 stages, what each one means, who owns it, and how to find the leak. |
| Stage 4 - Front-End Offer vs Back-End Offer | A stranger will not hand a stranger $50k. Sell the small thing first. |
