Multidots

Standing 1:1 with [[Anil Gupta]], mostly about the Aslam buyout standoff: Aslam's attorney formally rejected Anil's buyout offer and countered with an offer to buy Anil out instead, pushing both sides toward a third-party valuation and possibly Delaware Chancery litigation. Anil is retaining a Delaware attorney and trying to get a private in-person meeting with Aslam. They also spent significant time on a 'start over' thought experiment about what a lean, AI-era agency of 2-3 senior people would look like, and Chris shared that a Florida agency owner informally floated bringing him on for his strategy/network skills rather than web dev. They locked in a planning call for July 9 at 9am ET ahead of Chris's in-person visit.

Chris walked [[Anil Gupta]] through an updated homepage design for [[Multidots]] that reused about 80% of the existing design system with new flexible content blocks (case study pods, expanded FAQ section, book pop-up modal, gradient-inset sections). They agreed to shrink case study pods into a grid with industry filtering tags, and to design the FAQ block so it works either as deep-dive Q&A or standard short-answer FAQ. Chris also shared that he'd used Claude Code to build out reusable custom post types, taxonomies, and a block library for their WordPress starter theme, and offered to share documentation or record a Loom walkthrough for Anil's team.
