# /ship free sample lesson workbook

**Course:** /ship — From idea to shipped product in 2 weeks with AI agents
**Module 1, Lesson 1:** Run your idea through `/ship` intake

## Lesson goal

Turn a vague product idea into a one-page launch brief the `/ship` pipeline can execute.

## By the end of this lesson you should have

- A clear problem statement
- A specific ICP
- A concrete promised outcome
- A realistic 2-week launch scope
- A first-pass success metric

## Part 1 — The product in one sentence

Complete this sentence:

> We help **[specific user]** achieve **[specific outcome]** without **[main friction]**.

## Part 2 — Intake prompts

Answer these in plain language.

### 1) What are you shipping?
- Product name:
- Product type:
- Link or repo:
- Current stage: idea / prototype / beta / live

### 2) Who is it for?
- Primary audience:
- What can they already do well?
- What do they get stuck on?
- Why is this painful now?

### 3) What result are you promising?
- Desired outcome:
- Timeframe:
- What becomes easier, faster, or cheaper?
- What evidence would make this believable?

### 4) What constraints matter?
- Time available before launch:
- Team size:
- Budget:
- Channels you can actually use:
- Hard constraints or dependencies:

### 5) What does success look like in 2 weeks?
- Validation target:
- Traffic / lead target:
- Revenue or conversion target:
- Minimum outcome that still counts as a win:

## Part 3 — Red-flag check

If you answer “no” to any of these, tighten the brief before moving on.

- Do I know exactly who this is for?
- Can I explain the pain in one sentence?
- Is the promised outcome concrete?
- Can this realistically ship in 2 weeks?
- Do I know what metric I am trying to move first?

## Part 4 — One-page launch brief template

```md
# /ship launch brief

## Product
- Name:
- Type:
- Current stage:

## ICP
- Primary audience:
- Pain:
- Current alternative:

## Outcome promise
- We help [audience] get [result] in [timeframe] without [friction].

## Scope
- What is in this 2-week launch:
- What is explicitly out:

## Channels
- Primary:
- Secondary:

## Proof
- Existing proof:
- Missing proof we need before launch:

## Success metric
- Main KPI:
- Minimum win threshold:
```

## Part 5 — Apply now

1. Fill out the brief template.
2. Delete anything vague.
3. Highlight the one sentence that best explains the offer.
4. Share the brief with one real person and ask, “Would you understand what this is and why it matters?”

## Reflection

- What part of the brief was hardest to answer?
- Where did your idea feel too broad?
- What would make this easier to launch inside 2 weeks?

## Next lesson bridge

Once the intake is clean, the next step is validation. In Module 2, you will test whether the market actually cares before building more assets.

# /ship course outline

**Course:** /ship — From idea to shipped product in 2 weeks with AI agents
**Price:** $497
**Offer stack:** FREE `/ship` OSS tool → paid implementation course
**Delivery format:** mixed (video lessons + text workbooks + cloneable repo templates)

## ICP

Solo founders, indie hackers, and small teams who can code but stall at go-to-market. Built for LATAM and English-speaking operators who want an opinionated end-to-end launch pipeline instead of disconnected prompts.

## Outcome promise

Launch and market a validated product in 2 weeks using the `/ship` agent pipeline, even if you have never shipped before.

## Course entry friction

The buyer can build, but gets stuck when it is time to validate demand, position the product, create the offer, wire capture, and execute launch day without chaos.

## Learning outcomes

By the end of the course, the student will be able to:

1. Turn a vague product idea into a clean `/ship` intake brief
2. Validate demand and willingness-to-pay before overbuilding
3. Position the product around a clear ICP, promise, and competitive frame
4. Build a stronger offer using Hormozi-style value stack logic
5. Set up awareness, lead capture, nurture, and closing as one GTM system
6. Prepare launch assets before launch week instead of during it
7. Run launch day with a command-center mindset across channels
8. Review funnel data, identify bottlenecks, and plan the next iteration

## Module map

### Module 1 — Intake & Problem Framing
**Hook:** Why 80% of side projects die before launch
**Outcome:** The student turns a messy idea into a brief that downstream agent teams can actually execute.

**Teach lessons:**
1. What `/ship` is really solving
2. The intake template and required inputs
3. Problem interviews and jobs-to-be-done basics
4. Defining success criteria, constraints, and launch scope
5. Bad brief vs strong brief teardown

**Apply:**
- Run your idea through `/ship` intake
- Produce a one-page launch brief

### Module 2 — Validate (Demand + Willingness-to-Pay)
**Hook:** The 5 conversations rule
**Outcome:** The student gathers enough market signal to decide whether to proceed, re-angle, or kill the idea.

**Teach lessons:**
1. Validation before building more
2. Outreach scripts for founder conversations
3. Landing-page smoke tests in 48 hours
4. Pricing signals and willingness-to-pay cues
5. How to interpret weak vs strong demand

**Apply:**
- Ship a validate-test doc

## Module-to-friction map

| “I create content, but it does not convert.” | Module 5 | Connects awareness, capture, nurture, and closing |
| “Launch week feels chaotic.” | Module 6 | Forces launch prep before launch week starts |
| “I freeze on launch day.” | Module 7 | Gives an execution playbook and monitoring loop |
