Overview
A Hermes build can be sold when it solves a recognizable operating problem and can be demonstrated reliably. The recommended commercial model combines an initial setup fee with an ongoing retainer for maintenance, improvement, and additional workflows.
The service should be priced around the outcome and the human alternative, not around the number of hours required to assemble it. The strongest sales method is to build first, use the system personally, and show a prospect a working example made for the prospect's own business.
