Phase Path • v3.1

Phase 0 — Entry & Eligibility

Phase 0 is your starting point. It’s where we get oriented, confirm fit, and make sure we’re solving the right problem before any building begins. Phase 0 is free for Minnesota-based individuals and businesses (subject to availability).

What happens in Phase 0

This phase is intentionally low-pressure. We collect the right details, set expectations, and decide the best next step. No hard sells — just clarity.

  • Learn your situation: what you’re building, what’s stuck, and what “better” looks like.
  • Identify real needs: separate urgent fixes from nice-to-haves so you don’t waste time.
  • Confirm eligibility: Phase 0 (and Phase 1) are free for Minnesota-based clients, subject to availability.
  • Choose a path: we decide what phase makes the most sense and what you’ll get next.

Tip: If you’re outside Minnesota, you can still work with Cubed Web Sites — Phase 0 helps determine the best paid starting point.

What Phase 0 is (and isn’t)

Phase 0 protects your time and mine. It prevents “random building” and makes sure everything that follows is intentional.

  • Is: orientation, research, clarity, and the simplest next step.
  • Is not: a full strategy package, a full build, or a guarantee of free services.
