Working notes from the 435 launch.

This page is the editorial layer that keeps the register from feeling like a spreadsheet. It explains how entries are chosen, what still needs QA, and why Southern Utah is its own market.

Launch Note

Why the first register is draft-first.

We can move fast on candidate research without lowering the public bar. Draft pages are useful for QA, outreach, and internal review. Verified pages come later, after the facts are clean.

Cross Market

What Mint and Meráki prove.

Both brands give the Alliance Network a real test case: the same business identity appearing in more than one region, with each local register telling the market-specific story.

Field Note

Southern Utah has its own trust map.

St. George, Washington, Ivins, Hurricane, Cedar City, and Kanab do not operate like one suburb. The register needs to reflect local geography, growth pressure, tourism, trades, and care networks.
