Trust-First Content Scorecard
A 40-point diagnostic across clarity, consistency, credibility, connection, and conversion. Use it to identify the weakest trust signal in a real customer-facing touchpoint and decide what to improve next.
- 20 statements
- Score each 0, 1, or 2 based on what is actually present.
- 5 trust signals
- See category subtotals instead of relying on one vague overall impression.
- 1 next decision
- Start with the weakest signal that matters most.
Use, don’t admire

These tools are intentionally practical. They are designed to help you review one real touchpoint, make one clearer decision, or identify one weak signal before creating more content or adding more complexity.
