~45 min total reading · Skim-friendly · Comment on any section
01 — Project Brief

The strategic overview.

A single-page walkthrough of where the brand stands today — the two-product line, the 30g/day fiber stack thesis, market positioning, economics, and timeline.

If you only read one document, read this one.

~15 min · Strategy + status · Has 7 decisions for you at the end
02 — Brand Style Guide

The visual identity.

The brand DNA in detail — color palette, typography system, voice attributes, photography direction, packaging principles. For you to react to; for the brand designer to work from.

Skim the color and type sections first — they're the most visible.

~12 min · Visual + verbal identity · Designer-ready
03 — BrandScript

The story we're telling.

The StoryBrand application — the customer, the problem, the villain (stagnation), the plan. Draft homepage copy you can react to. Draft welcome emails. A three-week content arc proposal.

This is the doc where the "Look good. Move well. Inside and out." thesis lives. Section 05 holds 8 decisions for you.

Three ways to react.

Built into every document so you can stay in flow.

  1. Floating "Comment" button. Look bottom-right of every document. Click it from any section, drop a thumbs-up / "let's discuss" / thumbs-down, or type a longer note. The widget auto-detects the section you're on.
  2. Inline reactions on the BrandScript decisions. The eight decisions in Section 05 of the BrandScript each have option chips — click your pick, it sends Ben your choice with the section context.
  3. General feedback at the bottom of this page. For overall reactions that don't belong to a specific section.

Note for Ben: The widget composes an email via mailto: — every comment lands in your inbox with the section context pre-filled. If volume gets high, swap the mailto: in the widget for a Formspree or Netlify Forms endpoint and you'll get structured submissions in a dashboard. The swap is a one-line change in each HTML file.

Before you read — what's your starting energy?

Tap one. We'll use it as the headline frame for the conversation.

Anything not tied to a section?
