What the HIVE Deck Covers
Every business contains a mix of goals, challenges, and responsibilities. The HIVE Deck organizes these into six color-coded categories so you can easily see which area needs your attention.
These categories provide a clear and balanced view of your business, enabling you to identify your strengths, gaps, and priorities.
Operations
Systems, workflows, and the everyday mechanics of delivering your work.
Marketing
How people discover your business and learn what you offer.
Sales
How you convert interest into paying customers.
Governance
Finances, budgeting, cash flow, legal considerations, and risk management.
HR & Culture
Hiring, communication, team values, and the environment you create for yourself and others.
Entrepreneur
Your mindset, habits, confidence, and personal leadership.
A Framework for Every Stage of Business Growth
Businesses don’t grow in a straight line. The HIVE Deck uses a three-tier maturity system to help you understand which prompts matter most depending on where your business is today.
Each tier represents a phase of growth and supports different kinds of decisions.
Tier 1
Define & Count
Prompts that help you clarify your ideas, understand your customer, and build the foundation your business needs.
Tier 2
Activate & Stabilize
Prompts that support consistency, system-building, visibility, and sustainable operations.
Tier 3
Refine & Expand
Questions that help you think strategically, explore opportunities, and evolve your role as your business grows.
This structure prevents overwhelm by helping you stay focused on what matters most today.
