Packages
Sell an outcome with boundaries—often easier to buy. Use clear examples and keep pages reader-first. Small improvements repeated weekly create the compounding effect.
When hourly makes sense
Unclear scope or ongoing support. Use clear examples and keep pages reader-first. Small improvements repeated weekly create the compounding effect.
