if you give them one like gold nugget they're like I want more of this stuff the design check-in that's one fix but then you can do a full day and then it goes bigger and bigger until it's 40 hours a week or a productized service

Lead with a small, productized 'gold-nugget' offer

Nick's 'Design Check-In' — a 30-45 minute fix for one stuck point — is both a lead magnet and a standalone product. Tangible single wins convert skeptical prospects into recurring buyers. Design a single sub-$200 fixed-scope deliverable that solves one named pain in under an hour, then use it as the qualification step for larger engagements.
