🤔 What Is The G.R.O.W. Framework?

It’s a 4-part strategy for creating beginner-focused content.

It provides guidance, confidence, and quick wins…

Designed to help your audience beat overwhelm and keep progressing.

Create content within each of these four pillars:

1. Guides – Simplify the basics.

2. Roadblocks – Address common mistakes/challenges they’ll face early.

3. Options – Compare tools or strategies to help them make decisions.

4. Wins – Deliver small, confidence-boosting victories to keep them motivated.

Let’s go through each of the parts, one by one.

📋 Guides
