The long version.
Everything the short demo skips. What each phase actually contains, what is genuinely not finished, and what is waiting on a decision rather than on work.

01
All four are already written. The staging is a release calendar, not a build calendar.
the headlineNobody is waiting on code. Twenty studios are not being handed four new systems in one week, which is Jessica's own reasoning and it is the right one. Each phase also needs the one before it: marketing needs a client list, training needs studios that are running, the network needs something to trade.
The one real gap is not features. It is that the outside accounts are not connected yet. No email sender means no sign in link, which means nobody can get in at all. That is the actual critical path to September 1, and it is a day of account setup.
| Phase | Name | Turns on | What turns on |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Run the studio | September 1 | Clients, booking, the schedule, memberships, packs, payments, the front desk, payroll. Plus Chat EYT. |
| 2 | Fill the classes | Late September | Newsletters, text blasts when a class is under booked, the lead pipeline, the studio's own site and blog, review requests, an on demand library. |
| 3 | Teach the method | Late October | The EYT certification as software. Modules, auto graded quizzes, practical submissions, the curriculum and the written standards. |
| 4 | Own the network | Late November | The owners' board, a catalogue one studio's product is sellable by all of them, and the royalty accounting underneath it. |
Dates proposed, not confirmed. Jessica sets them. Phase 4 is visible from day one, read only, before it can be traded in. It is the reason the network exists and hiding it until November would be the wrong order.
02
Each phase, in full.
4 phasesPhase 1. Run the studio
phase 1- Her wordsStudio operations: client accounts, booking, schedule, tracking. Plus Chat EYT.
- What it isEverything a studio needs to stop paying for its current software. A client list with history, a class schedule, booking and cancellation, memberships and class packs, check in at the front desk, payments, and instructor pay.
- Not doneStripe is not connected, so payments run against test mode. Email is not connected, so nobody can sign in yet. Both are account setup rather than build.
- Why hereIt replaces something they already pay for. This is the only phase where a failure loses the studio.
Phase 2. Fill the classes
phase 2- Her wordsMarketing, text, libraries.
- What it isThe tools that bring clients in and keep them. Newsletters to the studio's own list, text blasts when a class is under booked, a lead pipeline so an enquiry does not get lost, the studio's own website and blog, review requests, and an on demand video library.
- Not doneSending costs money per message, so the metering has to be honest before it is switched on. The meter is built. Texting and the file storage for video are not connected.
- Why hereIt is the first phase that costs real money per use, and it is worthless until phase 1 has the client list it markets to.
Phase 3. Teach the method
phase 3- Her wordsSOPs, teacher training.
- What it isThe EYT certification, delivered as software. Course modules, auto graded quizzes, practical submissions from trainees, a curriculum the network controls centrally, and the written standards every licensed studio follows.
- Not doneStorage for trainee video submissions needs the file account connected. Certificates are recorded but not yet issued as a document.
- Why hereIt is the part that is uniquely hers. Nobody else can sell it, and it is what makes the network a network rather than a software discount club.
Phase 4. Own the network
phase 4- Her wordsNetwork capabilities: selling each other's products, corresponding with each other.
- What it isThe studios stop being twenty separate customers. A shared board where owners talk to each other, a catalogue where one studio's product is sellable by all of them, and the royalty accounting underneath so everyone gets paid correctly.
- Not doneNothing structural. It needs live payments before money can move between studios.
- Why hereIt is the only part a competitor cannot copy by building better booking software.
03
What is not connected.
4 accounts- Email sendingNobody can sign in until this is connected, because the sign in link arrives by email. It is the September 1 critical path and it is a day of account setup, not a build.
- File storageNeeded before video and trainee submissions work. Phase 2 and phase 3 wait on it.
- Live card paymentsPayments are built and run against test mode today. Real cards are the next step.
- Text messagingBuilt, including the consent record and the quiet hours check. Phone numbers and carrier registration are next, and nothing sends until that is done.
Waiting on a decision
3- The four phase datesJessica gave the interval, three to four weeks. The dates on this site are that interval applied to September 1, and they stay proposed until she confirms them.
- What the software costsBeing worked out with the owners rather than announced to them.
- Whether anything is shared across studiosCross studio numbers, and anything an assistant would remember from one studio to another. Nothing has been decided, so nothing is being done.
04
The questions that actually get asked.
6 answers- Does it cost anything to join the network?No.
- What happens to my client data?It moves with you. We do the moving by hand, one studio at a time, so nothing is guessed. There is no automated importer and we are not going to pretend there is.
- Do I have to switch off my current software on September 1?No. Phase 1 turns on then. You move when you are ready.
- Can I keep my own prices?Yes. Your prices, your brand, your clients. Nothing about that changes.
- What does the software cost per month?Not set. It is being worked out with the owners rather than announced to them, and this site will carry the number the day it is decided.
- Is anything shared across studios?That is exactly the kind of thing the owners should decide together, and it is on the list. Nothing has been decided, so nothing is being done.
Every connection is encrypted in transit, and sign in links are single use. That is the whole of what we will claim, because it is the whole of what is built.
