FAQ

How do I get started?

Click Apply today, put in your first name and your email, and answer my 12 questions. It takes about 10 minutes. My AI builds your plan and emails it to you.

Is the plan free?

Yes. The plan and the webinar are free, and they’re yours to keep whether you ever go further with me or not.

What’s in my plan?

It names your main offer in 1 line, who it’s for, and what to charge. It also lays out your page, your bio, the outlines for your first 10 videos, your first 30 days, and your whole path from start to finish. It runs over 7,000 words, on purpose.

Does the AI make stuff up about me?

No. It builds your plan from your answers and nothing else. If you give it a number, it uses your number. If you leave something out, the plan leaves a blank in brackets for you to fill in later.

My plan didn’t show up. What do I do?

Give it a few minutes. If it’s still not there, check spam and promotions. If it’s not there either, send me a note through the Contact page.

Can I do this on my phone?

No. You must have Claude Pro, and you must do this on the Claude desktop app on your computer. It won’t work on your phone. For the free setup in the webinar, you also need Google Chrome with the Claude extension added, pinned, and signed in. The setup page has all the links.

Do I need to buy anything else?

Yes. You need Claude Pro or higher, and that’s paid to Anthropic, not me. On top of your membership, plan on $20 to $100 or more a month on your own tools, subscriptions, and services outside the community. That’s what building a real business costs. Right now I spend over $600 a month on the tools that run my business. I’m not saying you need that.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You talk to Claude like you’d talk to a buddy. The free setup builds your Claude project for you, so you don’t build any of it by hand.

Is the community a course?

No. A course hands you a stack of videos and wishes you luck. This is a community, with me in it every day.

Can I just join?

No. You don’t buy your way in, you apply. It’s 6 short questions, and I read every application myself.

Do I have to be on camera?

For the kind of brand I teach, yes. You’re going to put yourself out there with your name, your face, and your voice. Nobody’s great at it on day 1. You just have to be willing to get better.

I already run a business. Is this for me?

Yes. Whether you’re starting from scratch or already running a business, your plan is built off your answers, off what’s already in your head.

Can you promise I’ll make money?

No. Nobody honest can promise that, and I won’t. What I promise is everything inside the community, live Q&As, and me in there with you every day. What you build with it is on you.

Is this an Anthropic product?

No. Claude is a trademark of Anthropic, PBC. I built The Paid Path independently, and Anthropic doesn’t make, endorse, or sponsor it.
