Current focus ยท next 2 weeks

Go hard on the mom angle

Reverse-engineer the Skool community / similar mom-focused communities, share insights, and recreate the funnel for PixSort. Other experiments (Instagram scrape pipeline, FB Campaign 2, UGC paid) are paused until the mom-angle work returns signal. After 2 weeks (around June 2), decide where to scale next: UGC, paid ads, or something else.
