About this skill

We need to produce a 2-3 sentence plain-text summary, objective, factual, no marketing language, no superlatives, no calls to action. Must be at most 60 words. Must not wrap in quotes. Must be only the summary text. No extra content. We need to explain what the skill does, what problem it solves, when to use it. 2-3 sentences. Let's craft maybe 3 sentences, within 60 words. Possible summary: "The channel-validator skill evaluates a user's marketing channel strategy by scoring focus, mastery, avatar clarity, ROI awareness, and expansion readiness.

Channel Validator - One Channel Rule Scorecard

Validate channel strategy against Hormozi's One Channel Rule—master one before adding more.

Core Principle: "One avatar, one channel, one offer. Master it before you add."

When This Activates

  • User asks "validate my channels"
  • User asks "am I on the right platforms"
  • User asks "should I focus on X or Y"
  • User says "I'm doing X, Y, Z, A, B..."
  • User says "nothing is working"
  • User mentions being "everywhere"

The Framework

One Channel + One Avatar + One Offer = Mastery → Then Expand

Scoring Dimensions

Dimension Weight What It Measures
Channel Focus 2x Focused or spread thin?
Channel Mastery 2x Mastered primary channel?
Avatar Clarity 1.5x Crystal clear customer?
ROI Awareness 1.5x Know what's working?
Expansion Readiness 1x Ready for channel #2?

Max Score: 100 points

Rating Scale

Score Rating Verdict
85-100 Focused & Ready Scale primary, consider expansion
70-84 Good Focus Continue mastering, don't add
55-69 Needs Focus Cut channels, double down
40-54 Sprawled Major consolidation needed
0-39 Scattered Stop everything, pick ONE

Channel Sprawl Signs

  • Active on 5+ platforms
  • Adding new channels before mastering any
  • "Repurposing content everywhere"
  • No channel getting full attention
  • Constantly switching strategies

Focus Test

If you could only use ONE channel for the next 6 months, which would it be?

If they struggle to answer, focus is the problem.
