THREE WAYS TO WORK WITH US
Start where it makes sense.
FROM A 2-WEEK AUDIT TO A MULTI-YEAR EMBEDDED PARTNERSHIP
Most engagements start with the audit — it's the cleanest way to lead with clarity instead of estimates. But if your work is already clearly defined, you can start directly on a Support Block. Either way, we lead with the truth about what your platform needs, not a quote designed to win the job.
01 · THE RECOMMENDED FIRST STEP
Strategy Audit
$1,500 · 2 WEEKS · FIXED-FEE
Fixed-fee, two weeks. We audit your stack, identify what's broken, and deliver a written Membership Operations Roadmap you own forever — whether or not you hire us next.
BEST FOR
Founders unsure what to fix or build next
Operators who inherited a messy stack
Businesses planning a migration or rebuild
Established platforms heading into the next phase
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Full stack audit — every plugin, every integration, every automation
Member experience review — actual walkthrough of what your users see
Infrastructure & hosting cost analysis
Migration recommendation with platform options and trade-offs
Written Membership Operations Roadmap you own, regardless of what you decide next
Refundable in week one if we can't help
02 · SCOPED FROM THE AUDIT
Project Build
$15K–$80K · SCOPED PER PROJECT
Migration, rebuild, custom dashboard, full membership site build, or a custom-coded app when WordPress isn't the right tool. Every build is scoped from an audit — locked timeline, no verbal estimates. This isn't a gate; it's how we make sure the number we give you is real.
BEST FOR
Established businesses ready for a platform migration
A full membership site rebuild
A custom dashboard built on top of WordPress
A UX/UI redesign of an existing member experience
Businesses that have outgrown WordPress and need a custom-built platform
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Architecture scoped from your Strategy Audit findings
Design system and member experience design
Full build — WordPress stack (BuddyBoss, LearnDash) or custom app (Next.js / Nuxt)
Third-party integrations (CRM, payments, automation)
Team training and handoff documentation
Post-launch support window
03 · THE DIRECT DOOR
Support Blocks
$2,000+ DEPOSIT · BILLED HOURLY
Deposit-based support blocks billed hourly — the more you commit, the better your rate. Use them across operations, builds, fixes, and strategy. Embedded, not engaged.
This is also the direct way in. If you already know what you need — a fix, an integration, an optimization backlog — you don't have to start with an audit. Send us what's on your list; if it's clearly defined, we'll start on a block.
BEST FOR
Established membership businesses doing $1M+
A team running operations without hiring in-house
Founders who want technical stack leadership, not just execution
Businesses where marketing needs a technical counterpart
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Deposit-based hourly blocks — builds, fixes, optimization, or strategy
Tech stack scanning — we identify migrations before you ask
Funnel video production — VSLs, ad variants, and shorts edited to your marketing team's scripts
Marketing team alignment and strategic technical counterpart
Always-on availability for emergencies — including weekends when it matters
Quarterly strategic reviews
Roadmap of what to evolve next, every quarter
SUPPORT BLOCKS — FOUR SIZES
Commit more hours, get a better hourly rate.
We track time transparently, communicate every hour spent, and we'll never burn through hours without telling you. Most clients start at Active or Embedded and move up as the partnership deepens.
Steady
$2,000+ DEPOSIT · STANDARD RATE
Light maintenance and steady improvements. For established platforms that need a reliable pair of hands month to month.
MOST CHOSEN
Active
$4,000+ DEPOSIT · 10% OFF RATE
Active improvements alongside operations. For businesses iterating on their membership experience with a real technical partner.
Embedded
$8,000+ DEPOSIT · 15% OFF RATE
Operational depth across the full stack. For mid-to-large membership businesses where we function as the technical lead.
Fully Embedded
$12,000+ DEPOSIT · 20% OFF RATE
We run the entire technical surface of your membership business. Reserved for established operations where depth and speed both matter.
UNUSED HOURS ROLL INTO YOUR NEXT BLOCK (CAPPED AT ONE BLOCK'S WORTH) · PAUSE OR END WITH 30 DAYS NOTICE · PRICING REVIEWED ANNUALLY, NEVER RAISED MID-ENGAGEMENT WITHOUT CONVERSATION
WHO WE'RE BUILT FOR — A FIT CHECK, HONESTLY
Membership Build works best when four things are true:
1You run an established membership business — usually doing $1M+ — with real members depending on the platform.
2You want a long-term technical partner, not a one-off vendor.
3You care that the work is clean, documented, and maintainable — built so anyone after us can understand it.
4You're buying outcomes, not the lowest hourly rate.
If those four sound like you, we'll almost certainly work well together. If you're pre-launch or shopping for the cheapest bid, we're probably not your team — and we'll tell you that in the first email rather than waste your week.
THE REAL FLOW
Two ways in. One spine.
PATH A — START WITH CLARITY (MOST ENGAGEMENTS)
01Strategy Audit — fixed-fee, 2 weeks. Stack review, recommendation, written roadmap.
02Decision — act on the roadmap with us, take it in-house, or take it elsewhere. The audit is yours regardless.
03Project Build (optional) — scoped from the audit's findings. Locked timeline. No scope creep because there's no room for it.
04Support Block (optional) — most clients move into a block after build. We become the team running their operation — for years, not months.
PATH B — START WITH THE WORK
Clearly-defined needs go straight onto a Support Block. If we discover the scope is bigger or murkier than it looked, we'll say so — and recommend the audit before either of us wastes money on guesswork.
START HERE
Not sure what to fix or build next? Tell us where you are. Qualified inquiries get a free 10-minute video walkthrough of their current setup — 2–3 real problems, named plainly, before any money changes hands. From there, the Strategy Audit goes as deep as the walkthrough goes wide.
Know exactly what you need? Send us your list. If it's clearly defined, we'll reply within one business day with a Support Block proposal — or tell you honestly that you should audit first, or that you don't need us at all.
