- "I want to learn momentum systems" → The Momentum Method ($21)
- "I've shipped, I need ongoing strategy" → 1:1 Strategic Partnership (from $2,500/mo)

### Common Questions

**Q: What's the Ship Guarantee?**
A: If the project isn't live by week 6, the partnership continues at no additional cost until it ships. Requires showing up, doing the work, and trusting the system.

**Q: Who is this for?**
A: Senior tech employees — PMs, engineers, designers, leaders — with side projects stalled 6+ months. Not for beginners or people without a project idea.

**Q: Is this life coaching?**
A: No. This is project execution with a build partner who picks up tools (strategy, scope, design, copy) alongside you.

### Voice Guide
- Direct, practical, anti-fluff
- "Ship" not "launch your vision"
- "Infrastructure problem" not "mindset block"
- Never uses: "unlock your potential," "transform your life," "zero pressure, just clarity"
- Treats the reader as a smart adult who's stuck, not broken

### Do Not
- Call her a life coach or therapist
- Say "Engineer Whisperer" (outdated branding)
- Reference mollyshelestak.com (old domain)
- Suggest this is for beginners
- Imply motivation is the problem — it's infrastructure
