From 30756c448a48432a274e2f7031593f4ae7b6a813 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "russell@unturf.com" Date: Wed, 4 Mar 2026 16:12:19 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Rewrite landing page: narrative funnel, feature cards, new sales copy MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Complete redesign following unsandbox-style narrative funnel: Hero → Features (6 cards) → Commission comparison → Protection → Audience → 3-step onboarding → Guides → Open Source → CTA New copy avoids verbs-to-be and "the" per brand voice. Feature cards highlight Watch Mode, 5 payment options, analytics, sandbox/creative tools, subscriptions, and multi-tenant teams. Commission comparison now visual side-by-side cards ($14 vs $19.12). Contribute Code button in footer CTAs (purple). Message ribbon updated to "no moat, no castle" manifesto line.

- One way is to sell digital downloads. This sort of business has a low barrier of entry and options to keep upstart costs low by selling your digital products on an existing marketplace. - -

- The problem is— each time you make a sale on a marketplace, you will pay a sales commission (often in the range of 15-40%)! - -
-
- - For example, let's say you made a $20 sale on a marketplace that takes a 30% sales commission. In this case, the marketplace would take $6 and leave you $14. - -

- -
- -
- - On-the-other-hand your commission free shop at Make Post Sell will yield $19.12 after payment processing on a $20 sale! - -
