Open seats: Product and Insider
There’s revenue and too many directions. It needs someone to choose one market and set the price, and someone from the trade who knows what an inspector will pay for and can open doors there.
- Goal for 30 days in Orbit
- Reach $1,500 a month in one chosen market
- Time it needs from you
- 6–10 hours a week
- A typical first week
- Product: Call the seven paying inspectors and the people who emailed from appraisal and insurance. Choose one market, then set one price to test against today’s ~$60 per inspector.
- Insider: Read three Fieldnote reports as if you had to sign them and mark what a real inspector would change. Then book ten calls with people you know in the market Product picks.
The patch for this Orbit
The patch is stamped on day 30 with the real number. The goal to beat: Reach $1,500 a month in one chosen market.
Every seat is a residency. How residency works
The split at Landing
Landing is the day the company forms. Heavy build. Voice-to-report, photo tagging and PDF export to keep running for seven paying inspectors. More to maintain, more to decide.
- The crew: 55%
- Product: 17.5%
- Insider: 17.5%
- Pool for later hires: 10%
From the crew
“Inspectors, appraisers and insurers all want it for different reasons. We keep building for whoever emailed last. Please stop us.”
