Evergreen VaultMore Freedom & Control for the Owner

Weak boundaries with clients

When a business owner doesn't set clear rules, clients start treating them like an employee who is available 24/7. This leads to 'scope creep' (doing extra work for free), endless revisions, and burnout.

Opportunity Score

Because the pain here is emotional and constant, the demand is massive. It is very low difficulty to solve because the 'cure' is usually just better documents and scripts.

The psychology of the buyer

Because every extra hour spent on 'scope creep' reduces their actual hourly profit.

If a project is supposed to take 10 hours but takes 20 because of bad boundaries, the owner has lost 50% of their profit margin. They pay to stop working for free and to get their evenings and weekends back.
