Questions

Good to know

Where do I pay, and how do I get the files?

Checkout and delivery are handled by Gumroad. You get the download link on screen and by email straight after paying.

Do I need Excel?

No. Every spreadsheet works in free Google Sheets, and each guide shows how to import it. They work in Excel too, with no macros.

Which one should I start with?

If you have no idea yet, start with the free 50 ideas. If you have a few ideas, the Validator. If you know what to build, the Builder. If you already earn something, the Tracker.

Will these tools make me money?

No tool can promise that. They help you decide and measure with your own numbers. Results depend on your work and your market.

Educational tools only. Not financial, tax or legal advice. No income is promised. These are my own products, not affiliate links.
