Built on Jobs-to-be-Done (JTBD: customer tasks and needs), the template forces you to map specific subscriber jobs-start a balcony herb garden, grow low-light houseplants, or gift a mindful hobby-to pains, gains, and desired outcomes. That makes messages empathetic, relevant, and testable across channels.
