Built to create

Establish audience, tone, category context, practical requirements, and exclusions.

02 / DEVELOP THE LANGUAGE

Explore selected naming routes and build the proposition and message hierarchy.

03 / PRESSURE-TEST THE SYSTEM

Pressure-test the system

Check real applications such as a profile, introduction, offer page, and pitch.

03 / SCOPE BEFORE PRICE

Three levels.
One clearly defined brief.

The rate-card scope factors are shown below. Client complexity is applied separately.

Focused / ×1

Focused scope

One named offer or personal-brand direction with one message hierarchy.

Expanded / ×1.8

Expanded scope

A personal brand with several offers, selected naming routes, and channel-specific message applications.

Complex / ×3.2

Complex scope

A multi-offer public brand with stakeholder input, naming architecture, and broader rollout language.

04 / TUNE THE BRIEF

See how the scope
changes the investment.

A planning range using the same rate card as the full DOC N.I.L. calculator.

Client complexity and scope are separate factors. The written proposal confirms the level that matches your brief.

05 / THE ACCEPTANCE GATE

Know what good
looks like.

Evaluate audience comprehension, differentiation, internal usability, and consistency in the agreed applications.

ILLUSTRATIVE APPLICATION / NOT A CLIENT RESULT

ILLUSTRATIVE APPLICATION

A professional with several workshops can create a naming architecture that makes each offer understandable without fragmenting the personal brand.

06 / PRICE GUARDS

Protect the scope.
Protect the result.

Outside this product unless agreed.

  • Legal trademark clearance or registration
  • Domain availability guarantees or purchases
  • Complete website copy or visual identity

No hidden expansion.

The proposal confirms quantities, review rounds, locations, versions, and the service period. Additional work receives a written change scope before it starts.

8% G&A is additional. Third-party costs and applicable tax are confirmed separately. Estimates are planning ranges, not a booking or a guarantee of results.

Before we begin.

Will you check trademarks?

We can flag obvious naming conflicts during exploration, but formal clearance requires qualified legal counsel.

Is a new name mandatory?

No. The work may establish that a stronger message system is more useful than changing the current name.

07 / CONNECTED PRODUCTS

Separate products. Connected when the brief calls for them.
