Predictions / The Voyage
The Voyage
Our chart. Waypoints we control. Each one advances the feature matrix, serves a venture, and moves the needle on cash flow.
Current Position
Passage Plan
9 waypoints linking priorities, ventures, and features. Each waypoint has a kill signal — the condition that means we stop and rethink.

Kill: Blocked by hex arch coupling — LlamaCloud import

Service defined. Solar365 outreach sent. Pipeline exists.
First prospect contacted — pipeline > 0

First Dollar
First agency retainer signed. Revenue > $0.

Second Client
Second agency client signed. Revenue sustainable.
$5,000-10,000/mo covers all costs + surplus
+$2,500/moKill: No inbound interest by May 23 → content strategy failing

Questions
If Waypoint 4 (First Dollar) slips past April, which waypoints die and which survive?
- Which waypoint has the weakest kill signal — the one most likely to drift without consequence?
- If you could only reach 3 of 9 waypoints by June, which 3 matter most — and does the answer change if you weight cash flow vs features?
- What waypoint is missing — the one we haven't plotted that would change everything?
