+# Business Plan: [AWAITING OPPORTUNITY DETAILS]
+
+---
+
+## STATUS: INCOMPLETE SUBMISSION
+
+I am **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings, prepared to deliver a comprehensive, investor-grade business plan for the incubation opportunity you've identified.
+
+However, your message arrived **without the core opportunity brief**. To produce the business plan you've requested, I need:
+
+### REQUIRED INPUT
+**The opportunity details** — specifically:
+- **What business opportunity are we evaluating?** (e.g., "AI-powered indie author web design," "manuscript formatting automation," "niche content syndication")
+- **Who is the target customer?** (e.g., "self-published romance authors," "technical publishers," "corporate training departments")
+- **What is the primary value proposition?** (e.g., "conversion-optimized landing pages," "print-ready PDF generation," "SEO content at scale")
+- **What is the strategic driver for Crimson Leaf?** (e.g., "fill portfolio gap," "leverage AI speed advantage," "capture high-margin B2B service niche")
+
+### OPTIONAL BUT VALUABLE
+- Reference to specific market research already committed to Gitea (if applicable)
+- Constraints or mandate from Crimson Leaf leadership (e.g., "must break even in 6 months," "target CAC under $50")
+- Existing competitive intelligence or customer interviews
+
+---
+
+## NEXT STEP
+**Please resubmit with:**
+1. The opportunity name/description
+2. Target customer profile
+3. Primary business model thesis
+4. Any market research or supporting data already available
+
+Once I receive the opportunity details, I will produce a **full, cited, assumption-driven business plan** meeting the 10+ URL citation requirement and ready for capital allocation review by the Genesis Fund.
+
+**Standing by.**
+
+— Orion, Director of Research
