Paid by the minute. No more free “quick questions”. Uses your frameworks, your examples, your language.
Warm every lead
How do you usually work with a founder on pricing?
Three weeks. Week one I audit what you charge and why. Week two we test three prices. Week three we lock one and write the page.
That is the framework from my talk at SaaSBoomi.
What is your approach?

Can I ask you something?
Flagged: wants a proposal
This is helpful. Can we set up a 6 month retainer?
Yes. I have flagged this to Priya. She will reply here personally.
Meanwhile, here is what her retainers include.
Can we talk?
The first ten questions every prospect asks
You have answered each of these a hundred times. Now once.
From “my calendar is full” to “my Mind took the first call”
Three steps. One afternoon. Then prospects meet your thinking before they meet you.
Step 1
LinkedIn posts, talks, workshop recordings, the PDF you send every client.
Step 2
Ask it your ten most common client questions. Correct. Set boundaries: no client names, no pricing negotiation.
Step 3
Bio, email signature, DM auto reply. Learners pay by the minute. Hot ones get flagged to you.

Worried it would cheapen the brand. Prospects who met the Mind first negotiated less, not more. Four stars because setup took an evening. Placeholder review.

Questions coaches ask before they start
Will it cheapen my brand?
The Mind answers the questions around the engagement, not the engagement. Prospects who meet your thinking first arrive more convinced, not less.
What if it gives advice I would not give?
You review before publish. Boundaries decline what you list. Every session is in your inbox.
Will clients stop booking me?
Sessions that mention proposals or “can we talk” are flagged to you. The Mind is the funnel, you are the close.
What about confidentiality?
Client names and contracts go on the decline list. Your data trains only your Mind.
I coach live. Can a Mind coach?
It can answer, reflect your frameworks and keep a thread. It cannot run a session. That is still you.
What does it cost?
Basic free 30 days. Pro ₹499.99 a month, 50 sessions. Advance ₹999.99 a month, unlimited, pricing control, analytics.
Take the engagements that need you. Let your Mind take the questions.first call.DMs.rest.
Every free “quick question” this week could have been a paid session and a warm lead. 30 days free. No card. Nothing goes live until you approve it.
