Formulae and Caveats
Calculations must keep their denominator attached
Growth Intelligence Score
Calculation: AI visibility + local authority + channel fit + conversion readiness + revenue visibility
Inputs: Diagnostic outputs, content audits, review system, reporting checks
Exclude: Presenting proprietary scores as external benchmarks
Caveat: Use the score to organize recommendations and report sections.
Why This Matters
The Insights Hub organizes guides, answers, scorecards, diagnostics, and measurement tools into a stronger executive research library. The annual report gives the hub a central reference point that can strengthen internal linking, AI-readiness, and external citation value.
Recommended Structure
The report should include an executive summary, methodology, framework index, vertical chapters for personal injury and hospitality, diagnostic findings, source-reviewed trend notes, implementation roadmaps, templates, and a clear correction policy.
Next Steps
Use this overview as a reference point for the detailed implementation guides and supporting pages.
What to Remember
The practical memory aid.
- The flagship report should become the citation anchor for the entire Insights Hub.
- The risk is calling the report proprietary research without real methodology, source notes, or clear separation between evidence and interpretation.
- Next action: The private-event funnel is the next system to score.
