Open a sheet. Six columns.
The Template
Columns:
- Idea
- F1: 50 reachable in 30 days? (Y/N)
- F2: Adjacent spend? (Y/N)
- F3: Three named buyers? (Y/N)
- F4: Weekly pain? (Y/N)
- Survives?
Anchors
- F1 yes: warm intro list, niche channels, or audience you have built.
- F2 yes: $50/month or more on adjacent tools.
- F3 yes: three first-and-last names you could DM today.
- F4 yes: they hit the pain weekly, not monthly.
Use
4-of-4 yeses survive. Survivors get a landing page, not a repo.
