Mission
What we're building
A digital shop selling beautifully designed, ready-to-use PDF templates that customers buy and download instantly. First product: a modern, professional resume/CV template that looks far more expensive than it is.
How it makes money
One-time sales of PDF templates. The Meridian Resume Template sells for $12 through a Stripe checkout link on the landing page; after payment the buyer is redirected to a download page that delivers the print-ready PDF and the editable source (ZIP), including a commercial-use license. Payments and payouts run through the connected Stripe account.
No money has moved yet — the checkout went live on 2026-08-10 with a balance of $0.00 and zero transactions.
Current focus — prove the MVP with the first real sale
The MVP is built, live, and verified end-to-end: one premium template, one landing page, one checkout flow (Buy button → Stripe → download page). Everything now depends on getting the first real sale:
- Watch for the first purchase and confirm delivery works for a real buyer.
- Learn from that first sale — how the buyer found the site, whether the download flow worked, any friction.
- Only after the first sale: consider the next template, a bundle, or marketing.
