Attractive Character → Epiphany Bridge → Big Domino → New Opportunity
| Dimension | Weight | What It Measures | |-----------|--------|------------------| | Attractive Character | 2x | Is there a compelling persona/story? | | Origin Story | 1.5x | Is there a powerful epiphany bridge? | | Big Domino | 2x | Is there one core belief to shift? | | New Opportunity | 1.5x | Is it framed as new vs. improvement? | | Authority Signals | 1x | Are credentials/proof established? | | Differentiation | 1x | Do they stand out from competitors? |
