Building solo, the hard part isn’t any single decision — it’s the order. Most people pick the stack before the offer, build the product before the list, and bolt on analytics after launch when the data’s already lost. This is the sequence Total Ventures runs every brand through, so you skip the expensive re-orderings and ship in the right order the first time.
Why a checklist
Eight steps. In order.
The whole checklist, no email required to see it. The PDF is the printable, reference-forever version with the detail under each.
- 01
Decide the offer before the stack
The one question that saves you three weeks of building the wrong thing.
- 02
Pick a stack you can operate alone

- 03
Wire the money and the list
Payments + email capture first. The two things that turn traffic into a business.
- 04
Stand up the funnel skeleton
Free magnet → nurture → paid offer → consulting. The shape every brand reuses.
- 05
Build the content engine
One input fans into social, email, and SEO automatically — so publishing compounds.
- 06
Instrument it
Analytics, SEO, and the alerts that tell you what’s working without a dashboard habit.

The three failure modes
The specific ways solo launches die before they ship — and how to dodge each.
- 08
The first-30-days sequence
