The first question I ask anyone before working with them is this: How do you want to help people?
Not "what do you want to sell them." Not "what's your business model."
How do you actually want to help?
Because if that's not crystal clear to you, everything else falls apart. Your messaging won't work. Your offers won't convert. Your brand won't stick.
But if you know exactly how you help? Everything becomes easier. That's the foundation. Build it right.
