Phase 1 — Foundation + First Client

June 2026. The foundation that makes every subsequent phase possible — entity formation, content pipeline, and first paying client proving the model works.

Founder identity — full name on About page, author bylines, organisation schema — unblocks entire entity formation
Organisation schema — JSON-LD site-wide, links brand from entity disambiguation
Author bio page — /about page as entity home, personal LinkedIn referenced in Article schema
Directory listings — Crunchbase + Clutch first, entity confirmation anchors
Reddit / Quora presence — 5–10 substantive contributions before first cluster article publishes
OpenClaw on VPS — Hostinger one-click deploy, agentic research and drafting layer, Discord interface
AI Citation Engineering pillar — definitional first-mover post: category claim before any competitor moves
First paying client — sub-$500K ARR SaaS founder, the segment no AI Citation Engineering agency currently serves at this price point
Q3 2026

Phase 2 — Service Expansion + Category Creation

Adding the diagnostic product and the LinkedIn service while publishing the evidence that the methodology works — the build-in case study.

Authority Audit product — $199–499 one-time diagnostic, top-of-funnel lead converting to retainer, no competitor offers this
LinkedIn Ghostwriting — Level 2 service, executive voice content for founders, LinkedIn Ghost v1 Pro agent
Build-in case study — Ideapreneur own citation data, 30/60/90 day proof-of-methodology that no competitor can replicate
Category launch — AI Citation Engineering as recognised discipline: manifesto + framework + white paper defining the field
Q4 2026+

Phase 3 — Automation + Scale

Operational leverage through automation, the first hire, and a clear MRR target that defines the solo delivery ceiling.

Make.com automation — Level 3 service, workflow automation for clients, requires paid Make.com plan
First hire — content ops or outreach role, after 2 consecutive months at $5K+ MRR
$10K MRR milestone — target: 8–10 Foundation + 2–3 Growth + 1 Authority client = sustainable solo delivery ceiling
