The job

Decide what is being sold, to whom, at which LAKA change level, before any page is written.

Required artifacts

This stage produces written artifacts rather than page sections.

  • laka_grid
  • category_statement
  • core_mechanism
  • buyer_segments
  • offer_ladder
  • qualification_signals
  • key_metrics

Decision rules

  1. Complete one LAKA grid cell for each of the eight variables before drafting copy.
  2. Name a single core mechanism — the proprietary method or artifact the funnel repeatedly points at.
  3. Define an offer ladder from a low-commitment entry offer to the core engagement, each rung with a named outcome.
  4. Write qualification signals as observable facts (stage, authority, timeline, budget), not adjectives.
  5. Choose key metrics per funnel stage before launch, so success is measured rather than assumed.

Exit condition

The grid, mechanism, segments, ladder, signals and metrics exist in writing and agree with each other.
