The title asks what stage you're in, and the thumbnail answers for you. YOU ARE HERE points near the bottom of a wealth pyramid, at SURVIVAL. Being placed that low makes you want to check where you really sit.
How the packaging works
Title
'7 Levels' promises a complete ladder to place yourself on, and 'YOU' in capitals turns a wealth explainer into a personal test.
Thumbnail
The stacked blue steps read as a ladder even when the labels are too small, so the low arrow still says you've a long way to climb.
Remix this
If your framework has stages, draw it as a set of steps and point YOU ARE HERE at a low one. Ask the question in the title, and let the thumbnail's answer push viewers to check it.
The transferable lesson
Ask where they rank, then place them lower than they hope.
