The Framework

Your business has two levers. You can't fix both at once. Choose your bottleneck.

Traffic

Getting high-quality human attention. Core Human Drivers: Belonging, Status, Security, Meaning, Autonomy. Context, mindset, and attention quality matter more than volume.

Offer

A compelling promise of value. Value is perception. Features → Benefits → Outcomes. Connect to the driver that motivates your audience.

Validation

First Principles Thinking, the Bullshit Police, Data Scepticism, MER. The discipline that prevents wasted effort.

Persuasion

The bridge between Traffic and Offer. Heuristics, framing, and the ethical line: if your tactic relies on the customer not knowing about it, it's manipulation.

Part of a Bigger Picture

The Trust Algorithm

Brand + Reputation + Claim Online = Trust. The invisible variable that makes T+O work.
