Pivoting to a $5 "Value-First" model after 100 free roasts 🌶️
Last week, I hit 100 free roasts. The engagement was great, but today I'm officially moving to a paid model.
The new flow:
Free: Get a brutal AI grade and top 2 fixes. No email required.
Paid ($5): Unlock a full 10-point conversion blueprint.
I'm betting on low friction and high value. Does $5 feel like a "no-brainer" price for a site audit?

“$5 feels like a no-brainer if the free roast already creates tension.
You’ve basically turned curiosity → instant upgrade.
You should test this in a live competition. $19 entry, winner gets a Tokyo trip (flights + hotel).
Round 01 just opened (100 cap) — best odds right now.”
