How the DIY stack slows you down
“Simple” checkout links
Don’t lock content or update your list, so you copy/paste buyers into spreadsheets every drop.
Marketplace fees & branding
You’re paying a cut to look like everyone else while they collect your customer data.
Manual access toggles
Move people in and out of Discord, Skool, or private feeds by hand. Miss one and the DMs explode.
Drop-day anxiety
You’re refreshing a half-dozen tools to make sure payments cleared and nobody leaked the link.
