### Task 3: Colorant Industry India/China Supplier Deep-Dive (Strategic)
- Mapped 8 Indian suppliers (Alliance Organics, Veeraco, Colorants Chem, Alps, Heubach, Vibfast, Colorant India, Kewin)
- ChromaScape update: expanded Kingman AZ, acquired Kemira's business, est. $50-100M revenue
- Three re-entry paths: Trading (lowest risk) → Import/Distribute → Custom Blending (highest margin)
- Tariff analysis: India in favorable position vs China; Liberation Day tariffs largely struck down by Supreme Court
- Recommendation: Start Path 1 (trading), graduate to Path 2
- Timing note: Joe meeting Ray O'Connor in Charleston THIS WEEK — perfect intel opportunity
- Output: `projects/colorant-india-china-supplier-deep-dive.md`

- Key risks for April 30: Iran/oil (40% spike), Fed rate uncertainty, elevated valuations
- Positive catalysts: OBBBA tax cuts ($127B consumer boost), tax refunds up 13%
- Recommendation: Proceed with April 30, stagger deployment over 2-3 weeks

### Task 5: Surfbox Competitive Positioning & Digital Audit (Growth)
- DISCOVERED: UNITS Storage has a dedicated "Compare SurfBox" attack page on their website
- Surfbox: 5.0 stars but only 18 Google reviews — needs 100+ for SEO impact
- Mobile storage market: $9.5B (2026) → $16.8B (2033) at 6.5% CAGR
- Key recs: Review acceleration, counter-comparison pages, TLC cross-sell (untapped gold mine), local SEO
- TLC-Surfbox synergy: Every renovation customer is a Surfbox lead — nobody's executing on this
- Output: `projects/surfbox-competitive-positioning-digital-audit.md`
