So, first off, unlimited advice starts at $175. At $89 you get one task, not unlimited. That's like saying "the brand new 2015 Toyota Camry starting at $300". Yes, you can buy a Camry for $300 from a junk yard, and you can buy a brand new 2015 Camry, but you can't buy a brand new 2015 Camry for $300.

What types of tasks are you talking about and can you actually acomplish anything useful in 30 minutes. Examples please. Are you talking about setting up AdWords campaigns? Reviewing the <meta> tags on my website? Helping me refine my headline? Or will you help me set up a marketing strategy and research my customers? The latter can take days or weeks. Can I have you do that under the unlimited plan, 30 minutes at a time?

Also, "Ideally a request is about 30 minutes of work" is a pretty terrible way to phrase what you are saying. As a customer, I probably have no idea how long something takes you. I know what I need to acomplish, and will dump a crapton of work on you for the low price. Without examples, I will simply ask you "I need 10x the traffic I have now to site X" and expect that you will deliver.

I think this is a really aluring idea, but I need more details!

In 30 mins I can do a basic AdWords campaign setup, review and probably adjust meta tags on your website, write you new copy, setup a marketing strategy (this would be multiple sessions), etc.

You would be amazed with what can be done in 30 mins. If you are on the monthly plan I go above and beyond. If I need to spend an hour learning your brand and company, I'll do it and then spend the 30 minutes executing. But as I said, 30 minutes is ideal, but not 100% set in stone. If it takes an hour, it takes an hour.

My goal is high quality output. But on the monthly plan you can get small bursts of that output.

For example, if you want a 1 year marketing strategy, that would take multiple sessions. But I can break it up over a month and put in the time required.

So what is your strategy in terms of making money here then. At $175/mo for 30 minutes a day, you are working for $17.50/hour. Is the idea that most people won't use up the entire 10 hours/month?

I am going to wait and see if reviews/testemonials show up that talk about results this actually delivered in terms of increased traffic, conversions, etc.

I'm running this as part of a test of the 7 Day Startup method. Just generating revenue to start is the goal, but the pricing and everything will be iterated on over time.

From past experience there is usually a divide of those who will make full use of the service and those who will use it as a net to help when it's needed. But that has yet to be seen and iterated on.

You can set up a quality marketing strategy in 30 minutes???

[marketingadvice]

30 - 45 minutes x 10 - 15 sessions over a month is possible. It depends how in-depth and how far out the strategy is effective for.

A 3 month strategy for an early stage company is workable in the 5 - 10 hours in a month.
