Agreement version 2026-10-01.1
Please read this before signing.
1. 14-Day Author Jumpstart
Your package includes the author and commercial-path assessment, one 75-minute strategy call, a personalized Commercial Direction Brief, and 14 days of private Slack coaching beginning with the completed strategy call.
2. The relationship
You are purchasing private coaching, strategic guidance, feedback, and the deliverables listed for your selected package. This is collaborative coaching—not done-for-you writing, editing, publishing, marketing, legal advice, financial advice, or a guarantee of commercial results.
3. When your program begins
Signing and paying reserve your place, but your paid coaching window begins only when your first coaching call is completed. Weekends count toward the 14- or 30-day window. A U.S. federal holiday that falls on a weekday does not count as a program day.
4. Communication
Private Slack support is asynchronous Monday–Thursday, 9:00 AM–4:00 PM Eastern Time. Replies are provided within one business day. Dates, appointment inventory, and support hours may change. Wednesday has no calls. To begin Dana’s review, provide the complete context, files, links, and questions, then send READY as a separate Slack message. The response window begins when READY is posted during support hours.
5. Calls and recordings
Calls are recorded and shared with you for your personal use. Call availability is limited and may change. You are responsible for booking promptly through the provided calendar and attending prepared.
6. Client responsibility
You will provide accurate and timely materials, protect your own passwords and account credentials, and maintain backups. Do not send passwords, payment-card information, API keys, or other account secrets.
7. Products and intellectual property
Books & Biz products, memberships, AuthorBrain HQ, templates, software, and other paid offerings are not included unless your selected service expressly says so or you already own them. Your access to existing products remains subject to their own licenses. This service does not transfer Dana’s underlying methods, templates, software, or reusable intellectual property for resale or redistribution.
8. Results
Publishing and marketing outcomes depend on the market, execution, budget, timing, platform decisions, and factors outside Dana’s control. No bestseller status, ranking, revenue, profit, income level, return on investment, or other result is promised.
9. Payment and refunds
Payment is required in full to reserve an opening. Because capacity is limited and preparation and access begin immediately, all sales are final and payments are non-refundable. Missing materials, delayed participation, unused access, or a change in your availability does not create a refund or credit.
10. Electronic agreement
Typing your legal name and selecting the acknowledgements is your electronic signature. You agree that the electronic record, timestamp, agreement version, and security audit information may be retained as evidence of this agreement.
