Explain the price and the free trial to a lead
What a self-built website costs, what the 7 free days include, what happens when they end and what changes after payment.
The written steps below are complete. The Video script tab shows exactly what the video will cover.
Leads ask the same four questions: how much, what is free, what happens after 7 days, and can I add more later. This lesson gives you the exact answers, as the builder shows them.
By the end you can
- Quote the yearly price for any number of pages
- Explain the trial and the pay bar correctly
- Explain what a lead can and cannot change after paying

The price per page
On: Builder, Review & go liveIn India a website costs ₹499 per page per year, and the pages are capped at ₹2,495 however many there are. Outside India it is $9 per page. The Home page counts as a page.
You should see: A 3-page site shows "3 pages × ₹499" on the builder's last step.

The add-ons
On: Builder, Review & go liveAn online shop adds ₹999 a year ($19) and is included when the lead chose a shop website. A page for every service adds ₹999 a year ($19) as one flat price for all services, on business websites, and only if the lead switches it on.
You should see: Add-ons appear as their own lines above "Total for 1 year".

The free 7 days
On: Live websiteA new site is live for 7 days with nothing to pay and no payment details taken. A small pill on the site shows the days left and the amount. There is one free trial per phone number.
You should see: A site on trial shows the days-left pill.

When the trial ends
On: Live websiteVisitors see a pay bar until the yearly fee is paid. Nothing is charged automatically, and nothing the lead built is lost. They can pay at any time and the site opens the moment the payment lands.
You should see: An unpaid site after day 7 shows the pay bar to visitors.
- 5
After payment
On: Builder, Review & go liveThe site stays live for a year and the lead can keep editing and publishing. A paid plan cannot be made bigger for free: extra pages and the service-pages add-on are locked in the builder with a note to message you.
You should see: A paid site's builder shows "Payment received" and a "Live until" date.
Tips
- The total on the builder's last step is always the amount on the pay button. If a lead asks "how much for mine", ask them to read that line.
- The published refund policy gives a full refund within 7 days of payment for a self-built website.
Troubleshooting
- A lead says the total is higher than they expected.
- The total counts every page they ticked and every add-on. Ask them to read the lines above "Total for 1 year" and untick what they do not need before paying.
- A lead wants more pages after paying.
- Their builder says "Your plan is paid for the year. To add more pages, message us on WhatsApp." Agree the extra price with them and add the pages yourself.
