A working MDS cash desk — fixed fee, mid-ticket.

Productized setup: outcomes ÷ audited spend on a weekly ritual — without a $5–25K custom build. Band: $1.5–4K · ~1–3 weeks. Inquire → scoped SOW → Stripe after signature.

SKU · mid-ticket

What is the desk-setup SKU?

A fixed-fee, time-boxed setup of an MDS cash desk you own — spend paste or Sheet SoT, Total ROAS, break-even from margin, Monday close ritual. Not SaaS seats. Not attribution theater.

$1.5–4K · ~1–3 weeks

Exact fee lands in the engagement letter after discovery. Tools/licenses billed at cost when needed — never buried. Typical pay: 50% on countersignature · 50% on acceptance via Stripe after scope.

Outcomes

What you walk away with

Named results — not hours billed. Same Total ROAS religion as the full Custom practice.

Cash spine

  • Spend ingest you can re-run (CSV / Sheet / paste)
  • Total ROAS for an agreed period + timezone
  • Break-even Total ROAS from your margin / target

Operator habit

  • Monday ritual card (margin → spend → vs BE → one move)
  • Metric one-pager finance can read
  • 30-min handoff + 7-day Q&A on the desk

Scope

What’s in vs out?

Same religion as Custom Data Solutions — outcomes ÷ spend as the spine. Smaller surface area than Lead Gen Desk or Advanced MDS.

Included (typical)

  • Discovery call + written scope confirmation
  • Spend ingest path (CSV / Sheet / paste ritual)
  • Total ROAS (sales or named outcome ÷ audited spend)
  • Break-even from your margin / target efficiency
  • Monday close checklist + operator handoff notes
  • Time-boxed credentials; you keep the desk

Excluded always

  • Pixels, CAPI identity graphs, MTA / path credit
  • “True ROAS,” view-through, suite clones
  • SyncWith-style connector zoo as the product
  • Forensic agency / rebate audits
  • Always-on MMM SaaS parity
  • CRM stage desks → see Lead Gen ($8–15K)

Process

Inquire → SOW → Stripe → setup

Primary money path is human scope — Stripe Payment Link only after the letter names fee and deliverables.

Fixed-fee SOW

We confirm band inside $1.5–4K, deliverables, acceptance, and refuse list. Structure mirrors the engagement specimen.

Pay + build + handoff

After countersignature, use the desk-setup Payment Link. Desk lands in your Sheets / environment within ~1–3 weeks of credential access.

Where this sits

Desk setup vs full Custom packages

Choose the lightest band that matches the decision you need to make weekly.

Close path

Ready to scope a desk?

Primary: inquire → scoped SOW. Secondary: Stripe Payment Link after the letter names your exact fee — never blind checkout before scope.

After countersignature, pay desk setup or a project deposit here. If you have not scoped yet, start with inquire — we will send the right link with your SOW.

FAQ

Before you inquire

Is this a buy-now Stripe checkout?

No as the primary close. Primary path is inquire → SOW. The Payment Links below are for after scope — when the engagement letter already names fee and deliverables. We do not sell desk setup as a blind storefront SKU.

What does “done” mean?

You can run Monday ritual alone: paste/update spend, read Total ROAS vs break-even, pick one action. Acceptance window and defect definition live in the signed letter (see specimen).

How is this different from the Shopify app?

The Shopify cash desk is a separate product (install free on Shopify). This SKU is Custom Data Solutions — a fixed-fee setup of an MDS desk you own, often for non-Shopify or multi-system operators. Shopify shops that only need Total ROAS: start on Product.

When should I pick a $5–25K package instead?

When you need invoice forensics depth, CRM-qualified stages, pipelines, or allocation helpers beyond a paste/Sheet spine. See Custom packages.
