Post-Purchase Onboarding Offer
Guide a new buyer from payment to first result fast enough that regret never has room to form.
What it adds
The builder converts your delivery and product source files into a sequenced first-week experience that confirms the purchase, sets a realistic path, and produces one concrete outcome before doubt sets in. It works by closing the gap between paying and benefiting, which is where refunds and support tickets are born, and it earns the right to make the next offer. The conversion event is the buyer reaching a defined first milestone inside the onboarding window.

What your builder is told to do
8The actual instructions, in order.
-
1
Read the source files describing the purchased product and delivery method, and write down the earliest point at which the buyer can experience a real result; the entire onboarding compresses time to that point.
-
2
Send confirmation immediately containing access details, what happens next, and when — buyers who cannot find what they bought within minutes open support tickets and consider refunds.
-
3
Reduce the path to first value into three or fewer required actions, and explicitly label everything else as optional so the buyer never confuses breadth with prerequisites.
-
4
Deliver the first win on a defined day with a specific, checkable outcome the buyer can point at, and confirm it back to them when the system detects completion.
-
5
Anticipate the two most likely stall points from the source files and pre-answer them before they occur rather than waiting for the buyer to ask.
-
6
Set expectations for support: where to ask, what response time to expect, and what falls outside scope, so the relationship starts with an accurate boundary.
-
7
Define layout: mobile presents one action per screen with a persistent progress indicator; tablet shows the roadmap alongside the current step; desktop keeps roadmap, current action, and resources visible simultaneously without scrolling.
-
8
Place exactly one forward-looking invitation at the end of the window, only after the first milestone is reached, and suppress it entirely for buyers who have not activated.

5The things an agent skips when you only say "build a post-purchase onboarding offer".
- Access provisioning fails or is delayed: notify proactively with a status and a specific expected time rather than leaving silence.
- The buyer is a repeat customer already familiar with the product: shorten the sequence and skip orientation content.
- The purchase was made for someone else: support reassigning access to the actual user without a second purchase.
- The buyer requests a refund mid-onboarding: pause the sequence immediately and route to the refund path.
- The first milestone is blocked by an external dependency: define an alternate milestone that is still meaningful.

It maps, then builds
Your agent reads the blueprint first, then builds the offer into your app around the product, audience, and stack.
Works with your stack
These blueprints are written to adapt. They tell the agent to detect your framework, match your existing design system, and use your source files instead of guessing the offer.
Need it tighter than that? Customize the offer file and tell it exactly which source docs and stack to use.
