Most marketing fails long before execution begins.

Not because teams lack skill, but because direction was never properly established. This note explores why clarity, restraint, and early decisions matter more than campaigns themselves.

Entering a mature market is rarely about visibility or ambition. It’s about understanding the systems people already trust, and removing friction where it quietly shapes decisions.
