March 2026 · 7-Stage Roadmap · Prepared by Founder OS Velocity
The Roadmap
Stage 1

Positioning

Complete. See Brand Positioning document. Core positioning locked: "We don't just talk AI. We deliver it." Two distinct avatars defined. Competitive landscape mapped.

Complete
Stage 2

Content Strategy

Four content pillars mapped. Each pillar assigned primary and secondary formats per platform. Implementation case studies anchor everything. Agency playbooks feed the Accelerator. Enterprise adoption content targets LinkedIn. Behind-the-scenes builds drive YouTube engagement.

In Progress
Stage 3

Distribution

Expand from YouTube-only to a four-platform system. Each platform serves a distinct function in the funnel.

YouTube — Anchor, weekly long-form LinkedIn — Daily, enterprise audience X — Daily, AI community + thought leadership Newsletter — Weekly, owned audience
Stage 4

Audience Growth

Systematic engagement: comment-reply cadence on LinkedIn and X, collaboration targets with enterprise-adjacent creators, YouTube SEO optimization for high-intent enterprise search terms ("AI implementation," "enterprise AI adoption," "AI workflow automation").

Stage 5

Lead Capture

Two primary lead magnets designed to qualify enterprise buyers:

AI Readiness Assessment — Interactive tool, scores their org 6-Month Agency Roadmap — PDF, feeds Accelerator funnel
Stage 6

Sales System

The full conversion path: YouTube video captures attention. Newsletter nurtures with weekly implementation insights. AI Readiness Assessment qualifies and segments. Discovery call books automatically for qualified leads. Proposal closes.

Stage 7

Scale & Systematize

Content Waterfall: 1 long-form YouTube video produces 30+ pieces across all platforms. Team delegation framework so Liam records once and the system distributes. AI-assisted drafting for LinkedIn and X to maintain Liam's voice at volume.
