Stop selling hours

Forum buyers and SaaS founders both punish hourly ambiguity. Package tiers with honest ranges and capacity caps convert faster — see /packages/ for how BrandForge structures five tiers.

Retainers need boundaries

Monthly retainers work when deliverables are capped — e.g. three workflows or three feature deployments per sprint. Uncapped retainers become unpaid consulting.

The Automator tier at $1.5k–$3k/mo is built for operators who need continuous automation without hiring in-house.

When to escalate to premium

Scope above Tier 5 belongs at mxstermind.com — bespoke squads, longer timelines, outcome-based deals. BrandForge packages stay fast and bounded.
