Proof of Usefulness Report

The Pavilion Group

+52
Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The Pavilion Group is a verified boutique marketing consultancy led by Dez Dickerson (Prince's former guitarist), not a technology product. The submission contains significant red flags: it categorizes itself under 'space-technology,' claims 'everyone' as the audience, and asserts 'most people have used my product,' which contradicts its small team size (<10) and B2B nature. While the business exists, the submission fails to demonstrate the specific utility, traction, or innovation required for a high Proof of Usefulness score.
