The submission describes a standard fractional marketing agency but suffers critically from low-quality input data. Claims such as 'most people have used my product' and 'marketcap' (instead of revenue) reduce credibility significantly, suggesting either a lack of business acumen or a non-serious submission. While the service offered (fractional marketing) has utility, the project lacks verifiable evidence of the claimed 30-person team or £2.5M valuation/revenue.
