Paid-product readiness / SP-PAID-LOCAL

Price the pack before opening checkout.

A no-checkout local review surface for the Start Here pack. It turns the paid-product path into reviewable price/package copy, delivery and support rules, proof limits, refund language, first metrics, and approval locks before payment, listing, KYC, tax, account, analytics, or deployment systems exist.

Command brief

A paid product must be easier to support than to sell.

This draft names exactly what a buyer receives, what support is included, what refund path would be fair, how the file is delivered, and which live systems remain locked until Tim approves them.

10-year-old mode

If someone pays, what do they get?

They get the Start Here worksheets, examples, safety rules, and a clear next step. They do not get guaranteed revenue, personal consulting, automation that runs the business, or proof that has not happened.

Draft paid-product copy

Use this only if Tim later approves a paid-product path.

Package ladder

Price should match support risk, not ego.

Option A

$19 worksheet-only test

Best if there is little proof and support must stay light. Sell clarity and files, not transformation.

Option B

$29 starter pack default

Best first paid test if the samples, printable pack, FAQ, and delivery path are clean.

Option C

$49 bundle waitlist/preorder

Only if Tim has real buyer language, stronger proof, support rules, and a clear refund/delivery path.

Before checkout exists

Refund, support, and delivery checklist.

Delivery

File delivery route is approved and tested after a platform is chosen; no broken post-purchase link.

Refund

Refund window, support contact, and “digital product” terms are reviewed before public listing.

Support

Scope is clear: worksheet product, not unlimited coaching or technical setup.

First metric

Choose one: purchase attempts, completed orders, checkout friction, support questions, refunds, or objections.

Payment and proof lock

Public copy cannot create fake buyer confidence.

Allowed now

Local screenshots, blank worksheets, fictional samples, safety gates, draft price copy, and honest preview language.

Not allowed

Fake customers, testimonials, sales, logos, revenue, endorsements, checkout stats, guarantees, or case studies.

Tim approval

Price, platform, public copy, refund/support terms, payment/KYC/tax/account fields, and launch route.

Stop rule

If support, refund, delivery, or proof language is unclear, improve locally before checkout.

Future checkout setup map

These are approval gates, not completed tasks.

Gate 01

Tim chooses price path

Wait, improve, manual share again, free lead magnet, paid product, or preorder/waitlist. This page supports only a future paid path.

Gate 02

Tim approves systems

Checkout/listing platform, payment, tax/KYC, account terms, refund/support, delivery, analytics, deployment, and public proof copy.

Gate 03

Hermes can assist locally

After approval, Hermes may prepare listing copy, QA checklists, product ZIP manifests, screenshots, and testing scripts for review.

Hermes-safe local work

AI may prepare the paid-product draft.

  • Write local sales-page copy and package comparisons.
  • Organize refund, support, delivery, and proof checklists.
  • Compare price options against support risk and buyer clarity.
  • Update local files, ZIP, contact sheets, and verifier coverage.

Human approval lock

AI may not open checkout.

  • No payment platform, listing, account creation, terms, KYC/tax/payment/legal/identity fields, checkout, analytics, or deployment.
  • No outreach, posting, ads, customer data, public delivery flow, or support inbox setup.
  • No fake proof, customers, revenue, testimonials, logos, screenshots, validation, or guarantees.

Next safe decision

Paid is a gate, not a default.

If there is no real feedback yet, manual validation remains safer. This draft is ready when Tim needs to compare checkout readiness without connecting checkout.
