Offer Creation
Build irresistible offers using the $100M Offers framework. Structure value stacks, guarantees, bonuses, and pricing that make saying "no" feel irrational.
Purpose
Most founders sell a product. Great founders sell an offer. This skill walks through the complete process of turning a product or service into a "grand slam offer" — one where the perceived value so far exceeds the price that buying becomes the obvious choice.
Workflow
Step 1: Define the Dream Outcome
Ask the user:
- •What does your customer want more than anything? (The dream outcome, not your product)
- •How long does it currently take them to get there?
- •What have they already tried that failed?
- •What's the biggest risk they perceive in buying?
Step 2: Apply the Value Equation
Value = (Dream Outcome x Perceived Likelihood of Achievement) /
(Time Delay x Effort & Sacrifice)
For maximum value, work all four levers:
- •Increase Dream Outcome — Make the end result bigger, more specific, more desirable
- •Increase Perceived Likelihood — Add proof, guarantees, credentials, case studies
- •Decrease Time Delay — Faster results, quick wins, immediate access
- •Decrease Effort & Sacrifice — Done-for-you, templates, automation, simplicity
Step 3: Build the Value Stack
List every component of the offer. For each, define:
| Component | What It Is | Value to Customer |
|---|---|---|
| Core offer | The main product/service | $X,XXX |
| Bonus 1 | Accelerator, template, tool | $XXX |
| Bonus 2 | Access, community, support | $XXX |
| Bonus 3 | Speed/convenience upgrade | $XXX |
| Total Value | $XX,XXX | |
| Price | $X,XXX |
The stack should make the price feel absurdly low compared to total value. Aim for 10:1 value-to-price ratio minimum.
Step 4: Design the Guarantee
Choose a guarantee type:
- •Unconditional — "Full refund, no questions asked, 30 days"
- •Conditional — "Do X, Y, Z and if you don't get [result], full refund"
- •Anti-guarantee — "This is NOT for everyone. We're selective." (scarcity play)
- •Performance — "We'll work for free until you hit [metric]"
- •Reversed risk — "Keep the bonuses even if you refund"
The best guarantee addresses the customer's #1 fear directly.
Step 5: Name the Offer
The name should communicate the result, not the mechanism:
- •Bad: "Marketing Consulting Package"
- •Good: "The 90-Day Revenue Accelerator"
- •Bad: "SEO Service"
- •Good: "Page One in 60 Days"
Formula: [Timeframe] + [Dream Outcome] + [Container Word] Examples: "System", "Accelerator", "Blueprint", "Engine", "Formula"
Step 6: Set the Price
Pricing principles:
- •Price on value delivered, not time spent
- •The price should feel like a fraction of the outcome
- •If no one says "that's expensive," you're too cheap
- •Include payment plan options to reduce friction (not discount)
- •Never compete on price — compete on value
Step 7: Write the Offer Summary
Produce a complete offer one-pager the user can put on a sales page, pitch deck, or proposal.
Output Format
## [Offer Name] ### The Problem [1-2 sentences on the pain point] ### The Dream Outcome [What the customer gets — specific, measurable] ### What's Included **Core: [Core Product/Service Name]** (Value: $X,XXX) [Description] **Bonus 1: [Name]** (Value: $XXX) [Description] **Bonus 2: [Name]** (Value: $XXX) [Description] **Bonus 3: [Name]** (Value: $XXX) [Description] ### Total Value: $XX,XXX ### Your Investment: $X,XXX ### Guarantee [Guarantee statement] ### Who This Is For - [Ideal customer trait 1] - [Ideal customer trait 2] - [Ideal customer trait 3] ### Who This Is NOT For - [Disqualifier 1] - [Disqualifier 2]
Constraints
- •Never create offers with fake or inflated value numbers — every value claim must be defensible
- •Don't stack bonuses that are irrelevant to the core outcome
- •Guarantees must be ones the user can actually honor
- •Pricing should be realistic for the user's market and business stage
- •Always note if an offer element is aspirational vs. something they can deliver today
