+===== Immediate Next Actions =====
+This week (momentum builders):
+  - Put the one-page website online (even if it’s basic)
+  - Send 20 outreach emails to potential pilot stations
+  - Book 1–2 discovery calls
+  - Identify top 2 relocation cities for a scouting trip
+----
+===== Notes =====
+  * ELF is open-source. Revenue comes from setup, hosting, support, and consulting.
+  * The clean path is: validate demand → land pilot(s) → standardize onboarding → expand recurring revenue.
