01
The Starter Stack
A starting structure for developing your first offers.
The Offer Stack Builder
Choose what to sell
from what you know.
Eight questions. One recommended offer model. Match what you know with the audience, time and business you have, so you can choose what to build and sell next. Buy it once for $27, or use your included Academy access.
Choose what to build
Build offers that fit
the business you want.
A product, a service, a membership—each asks something different of you and your readers. Your offer stack is the combination you choose to sell.
This assessment considers your audience, current revenue, available time, experience, preferred level of interaction, and goals. Your answers point toward one of five offer models.

Go to the AcademyWhat does the assessment ask about?
Your audience size, current revenue, available time, expertise, preferred level of interaction, income goals, current offers, and preferred business model.
Does it create a finished offer for me?
It recommends an offer model based on your answers. You still choose the specific offer, who it serves, its scope, and its price. Academy lessons and private coaching can help you develop those decisions.
Does a result promise a particular income?
No. It is a planning recommendation, not a prediction of your revenue. Results depend on your audience, offer, execution, and other factors.
Can I buy it without an Academy membership?
Yes. Buy standalone access for one payment of $27. Your personal access link lets you return to the builder as your business grows.
Is it included with the Academy?
Yes. Every paid 9-to-Thrive member gets Academy access on Substack, including the Offer Stack Builder. It is included with both Standard and VIP. Already a member? Use your existing member access; you don’t need to buy it again.
