Positioning · Narrative · Market Signal

Your product is good. Your story is costing you deals.

Dida Labs is a positioning studio for founder-led companies in complicated markets. One sprint, 30 days: a story that buyers, partners and investors can repeat without you in the room.

I have already done the thing you’re attempting: NAGA’s $65m ICO narrative · Tipser’s content engine before Bolt acquired it · a $100m partnership closed CEO to CEO at IOPn
Momentum leaks where explanation starts.

If every serious conversation needs twenty minutes of founder context, the story is doing none of the work. Outreach stalls. Partners can’t repeat the pitch internally. Investors hear a different company in every meeting.

That’s the layer Dida fixes — before you spend more on content, ads or headcount.

Four things, done concretely.

Every sprint produces written, usable assets — not a strategy deck that dies in a drawer.

01

A position

Who it’s for, what problem you own, why now. One sentence you’ll actually use.

02

A narrative

Homepage, deck and outreach telling the same story at three depths.

03

Proof, sequenced

Your traction and partnerships ordered so the strongest fact lands first.

04

A 30-day plan

What to publish, who to contact, and with which message.

The work, shown.

Positioning claims are cheap. Here’s what this looks like in practice.

Tipser logo
Commerce Tech · Content Engine

Tipser: a public face built from zero, then acquired by Bolt.

Situation

Strong embedded-commerce product. Near-zero market voice.

What changed

Built the content engine from scratch: email-gated industry reports that converted into well-attended webinars and a steady B2B education rhythm.

Result

An outward-facing presence created almost from nothing, supporting the company’s positioning through to its acquisition by Bolt.

Simon took a story we’d been overcomplicating for months and had it landing in one sentence within weeks. The difference showed up in real conversations — partners started explaining us correctly without us in the room.

Signal Audit

Where your story loses people, shown with specific examples. A proof map that resequences your facts by commercial weight, and a prioritised fix list you can hand to a writer, designer or agency.

Best for: early-stage teams, pre-launch, or anyone who wants to see the thinking before committing.

Market Signal Sprint

Positioning, narrative hierarchy, proof sequencing and a 30-day execution plan, written out and ready to use. Direct with me — no juniors, no handoffs, no discovery workshops.

Best for: funded teams before a launch, raise or commercial push.

Smaller teams often need more than messaging. Where it helps, the work extends into partnership strategy, investor narrative and go-to-market — the things I spent a decade doing as an operator rather than an adviser.

Find out what your story is leaving on the table.

Twenty minutes, direct with the founder. No deck, no discovery workshop.
