Define what brand stands against and champions. See references/frameworks.md for enemy types, ally mapping, and statement template.

5. Narrative Arc Structure

Build story with Origin, Catalyst, Mission, Vision. See references/frameworks.md for component definitions and template.

PoV Development Process

Step 1: Belief Extraction

From all prior inputs, identify core beliefs about category, customers, and status quo.

Step 2: Enemy Definition

Articulate industry conventions to reject, frustrations to eliminate, approaches to challenge. Make enemy clear but not negative.

Step 3: Only-ness Articulation

Craft unique positioning statement using the formula. Ensure it's defensible and meaningful.

Step 4: Manifesto Development

Write 150-300 word manifesto with: opening hook, enemy articulation, mission declaration, audience invitation, rally cry.

Step 5: Proof Narrative

Connect PoV to evidence through product/service. Ensure beliefs are lived, not just stated.
