Practical launch checklist
How to improve this workflow without guessing.
Choose one audience
Start with one sober curious cohort and one transition in the participation journey. A focused first test makes the result interpretable.
Verify the answer source
Review the current offering, schedule, policy, and booking or registration path before Branch answers the questions people ask about branch for sober-curious communities.
Define the human boundary
Specify what Branch may answer, recommend, or record, and which safety, billing, placement, or policy uncertainty must go to staff.
Measure the next state
Track the move from interest to the next completed action and verified attendance. Keep clicks, messages, and RSVP intent separate.
WORKED EXAMPLE
People need exact answers before attending

MEASUREMENT
Report movement, not message volume
Use the recorded states for this vertical’s workflow and name the source for attendance. A modeled estimate or recommendation is not verified participation.
