The Almost-There vs The Best-Kept Secret
Two of the six Reality Check archetypes — what each one looks like, and who it fits.

The Almost-There
“I'm closer than I think. One or two gaps between me and a plan I'd actually back.”
What it is
You're close. The bones, the offer, the audience — most of it is in place. What's left is one or two persistent gaps that have a way of staying not-quite-closed forever, because almost-done feels close enough to ignore.
Who it fits
Founders and operators who have a working business but feel one focused sprint would lock in what they've built.

The Best-Kept Secret
“I'm good at the work. The part I avoid is letting anyone know it.”
What it is
You're genuinely good at the work, maybe better than people doing half as well with twice the noise. But you treat being seen as something other people do. The plan doesn't stall on the doing. It stalls on the saying.
Who it fits
Specialists who avoid self-promotion and whose audience is smaller than their craft deserves.
