Subject: St. Pierre Builder role - first mission

Hey Collins,

I want to move forward with a 30-day trial for the St. Pierre Builder role.

The frame:
- $1,000/month
- Part-time, about 20 hours/week
- 30-day trial
- First proof checkpoint after week 1

The role is not to rebuild a new system from scratch. The production machine and the sales system are already started and templatized. Your job is to learn the current setup, run the daily production machine every day, then automate the running - and automate the sales system around the funnel - without me managing every step.

Your first milestone:
Ship the full daily slate for five straight days, then hand me a note on what to automate first.

That means, every day:
- 1 newsletter draft
- organic posts (the publisher already runs one post/day - you keep the queue full)
- 1 AI-UGC video
- 1 carousel
- statics in tweet-style + note-style
- a daily batch of new ad creative staged paused into the current R2 3×3×3 factorial pack structure with captions/headlines (I flip the spend)
All from the existing hooks, offer, formats and copy contract. Friday: 5 consecutive full-slate days shipped + a hand-back on what was manual, what broke, and what you will automate first.

Important guardrails:
- You will get full context first.
- Live control comes only after proof.
- No posting to live prospect/client sends, boosting, account permissions, or ad spend in week 1 - the organic publisher and paused ad staging are the only live surfaces you run.
- If you need access to a live tool, stop and write the exact ask first.

Before you build, send me a 24-hour plan with:
1. What source files/templates you will use
2. The exact output folder you will create
3. What you expect to ship first
4. Any access you think is required
5. Your expected timeline

If you are blocked for more than 30 minutes, send a Loom explaining the blocker and the decision needed. Do not wait silently.

I will share the Builder Vision Handoff, your Start Plan, and the Daily Operating Rhythm doc after confirming access.

Optional short version reference only
Hey Collins,

I want to move forward with a 30-day trial for the St. Pierre Builder role: $1,000/month, part-time around 20 hours/week.

First milestone: ship the full daily slate - newsletter, organic, AI-UGC video, carousel, tweet- and note-style statics + a paused daily ad batch - for five straight days using the current templates, then a hand-back on what to automate first.

This is not a rebuild from scratch. Run the machine, then automate the running, and automate the sales system around the funnel. Full context comes first; live control comes only after proof. No live prospect/client sends, account access, or ad spend in week 1 - the organic publisher and paused ad staging are your only live surfaces.

Before building, send a 24-hour plan with the source files, output folder, first ship, any access request, and timeline.
