02 / KICKOFF

Your client sent the logo.
Somewhere. Probably.

A small project should not begin with four days of detective work across email, WhatsApp, Drive and “I'll send that later”.

THE COMPLAINT

Chasing basic project bits quietly eats the week.

The work is ready to begin, except the logo is in an old thread, nobody knows who owns the domain and the access invite never happened.

WHAT ACTUALLY MATTERS

Know what is missing and make the next move obvious.

Once everything is there, the product should stop onboarding and let the actual project start.

KICKOFF / WORKING PROTOTYPEFake client. Real workflow.
SELECTED TASK

Logo files

SVG/AI preferred. PNG is fine if that is all you have.

THE POINT

Chasing is work. Make the system do it.

The prototype now has a complete ending: resolve the blockers, hit 100%, choose a kickoff slot and book it. A real sprint would map the team's exact checklist, secure-access handoffs, calendar and reminder rules.
