Acceptance criteria sheet
Hand a developer or agency a story with its definition of done written down: testable expected behaviours, error cases and edge cases, each traced to a rule or design state, with the unclear terms and open questions listed for the product owner.

Assumption map
For a product owner whose plan rests on beliefs nobody has tested: each belief is written down, set against the evidence you hold, ranked by what it would do to the plan, and given a cheap test to choose from. You decide what to test; no evidence is invented.

Business model assumptions review
Before you commit money to a new or revised business model, see it block by block with every claim marked evidenced or assumed, the riskiest assumptions ranked, and the cheapest test for each. You choose what to test; no projection or valuation is made.

Channel partner fit review
When a referral, reseller or alliance partner approaches, the founder or head of partnerships gets one review: evidence the partner brings customers of its own, the type that evidence supports, a ninety-day plan with signs to go on or stop, and the commission range that still beats selling direct. A person decides.

Cold outreach sequence drafting
Your outreach reads like you wrote it on your best day: a first note and its follow-ups, drafted in your own voice, where every line about the prospect traces to a dated fact and every line about your company traces to facts you supplied. You read it, edit it and send it yourself.

Customer case study
With a customer who has agreed to help, prepare the interview, then turn their words and the figures they supply into a case study in a short and a long version. Every quotation and number is listed for the customer to approve in writing, and nothing is published or named before they do.

Deal close plan
Your account executive holds one late-stage deal on two pages: the buyer's case for buying now, counted from the buyer's own figures, and a dated plan of every step to signature with its owner on each side. The seller decides what the buyer sees; nothing reaches the sales system without approval.

Event plan
Whoever owns one event, a talk, a dinner, a webinar or a stand, gets one plan: the goal and target, who should be in the room, every step before, on and after the day with a date and an owner, and how each conversation is followed up. Nothing is booked, paid or sent by the assistant.

Presentation outline and talk track
Anyone presenting to a board, a client or a conference gets a storyboard built on one message, then a spoken script for every slide, timed to the slot and true to their own speaker notes. Every fact comes from what the presenter supplied, and the presenter approves the message and the words.

Product pricing options
A product owner weighing how to price or package a product gets one options brief: what each customer group uses, the willingness-to-pay evidence held with stated kept apart from observed, what each option would bill every account, the uncertainties and the tests. It recommends no price.

Prospect list by role and firm type
Before anyone writes a first note, you know which kinds of firm and which roles in them deserve your next conversations. Every firm is tested against your own criteria first and carries a sourced reason, a grade and the questions only a conversation can answer. Nobody is contacted.

Release notes draft
The product owner gets draft release notes for one shipped release, in words users recognize: what is new, changed, removed and fixed, the steps users must take, and the known limitations. Only what was supplied is described. The owner checks and publishes.

Roadmap tradeoff review
When a new priority arrives, the product owner sees what the roadmap would have to give up to hold it: the capacity gap by team, the work that could move, the commitments and dependencies that move with it, and the questions still open. The owner decides.

Smallest useful release scope
A product owner or founder with more features than capacity gets one page: what is in the first release and what is deferred, all tied to one user outcome, with the reason for each cut. The owner decides the scope; no effort is estimated beyond what is supplied.

Technical demo plan
Before a technical discovery or demo meeting, the account executive and solutions engineer get an attendee brief, a demo sequence built around the buyer's stated workflow from approved scenarios, and open questions. Requests nobody has verified stay questions.

Tracking event plan
Before analytics goes onto a website or app, the founder or product owner gets one plan: the events and properties worth collecting, when each fires, where it goes, what it is called and who owns it, each tied to a question the business needs answered. The owner approves what is collected.

Usability test session plan
Before a prototype or a confusing flow goes in front of users, the research lead and product owner hold one plan: who to recruit, the tasks in plain words, the neutral prompts, a blank note sheet and how success is counted. Recording and data handling are listed as decisions.

User research plan
When a design decision needs user evidence, the research lead gets one study plan: what the team needs to know, what evidence already exists, method options with their hours, participant criteria, permissions needed, how answers will be read and what the study cannot establish.
