+- [What they value]
+
+Quote: "[Capturing their essence]"
+```
+
+## Research Sprint Timeline (1 Week)
+
+- **Day 1**: Define research questions
+- **Day 2**: Recruit participants
+- **Day 3-4**: Conduct research

+
+## Insight Presentation Format
+
+For every finding:
+
+1. **Key Finding** (One sentence)
+2. **Evidence** (Data/quotes)
+3. **Impact** (Why it matters)
+4. **Recommendation** (What to do)
+5. **Effort** (Implementation difficulty: Low/Medium/High)
+
+**Example:**
+
+```
+Finding: Users abandon signup at password creation
+Evidence: 45% drop-off, "Too complicated" in interviews
+Impact: Losing half of potential users
+Recommendation: Add "magic link" auth option
+Effort: Low (2 days implementation)
+```
