Pro Tip:
Most early-stage founders get marketing backwards.
They start with a logo, a name, and an idea—then jump straight to product features.
But here's what actually makes marketing easier: Start with your vision and mission.
Why? Because everything else flows from there.
Ask yourself: → Why are we building this? → How will our users' lives change with this product? (For B2B: answer this for both the end user AND the buyer.) → How will it make them feel?
A vision statement paints the world as if your product already exists. A mission statement is how you get there.
If either takes more than one sentence, you're not done yet.
