What You Walk Away With

Three artifacts. One conversation.

No fluff, no generic "here's how to study" talk. You leave the session with three concrete things you can act on immediately.

🎯
Weak-area diagnosis

We pressure-test the domains where you're least confident. You'll know which 3-4 sub-objectives are quietly going to lose you the exam — and which ones you can stop over-studying.

📅
14-day study plan

Day-by-day. What to read, what to practice, when to do mock tests, when to rest. Sized to the time you actually have, not the time a publisher assumes you have.

📝
Exam-day plan

Time budgeting per domain, when to flag-and-move, how to handle the PBQ block, and what to do the morning of. The small stuff that costs people 5 points.

The 45 Minutes

How a session actually runs

Structured but not rigid. We adjust on the fly based on what surfaces — the diagnosis usually drives the rest.

Fit Check

Who this is for — and who it isn't.

This is for you if

  • You have an exam date (or want to set one) within 4-8 weeks
  • You've already started studying and feel stuck or scattered
  • You want a custom plan, not a generic "study harder" pep talk
  • You'd rather pay once for clarity than buy your fourth study guide
  • You're working full-time and need a plan that respects that

This isn't for you if

  • You haven't picked a cert yet — start with the guides first
  • You want someone to study for you or "guarantee" a pass
  • You're looking for free advice on Reddit — go check r/CompTIA
  • You're studying a vendor exam (Cisco, Microsoft, AWS) — not covered yet
  • You want hands-on lab walkthroughs — different service, not this one

Frequently asked

What happens after I pay?

Stripe sends your receipt with a Calendly link to book your 45-minute slot. Pick whatever works for your week. You'll get a calendar invite with a Google Meet link.

Why only 4 sessions per month?

So this stays a strategy service, not a calendar-based job. The cap also keeps the conversation focused and the prep quality high. When it fills, it fills — and the next slot opens at the start of the following month.

Which exams does this session cover?

v0 is CompTIA A+ only — Core 1 (220-1201), Core 2 (220-1202), or both. The session and the matching A+ study guides are tightly aligned.

Network+, Security+, CySA+, and PenTest+ get their own strategy sessions as the matching study guides ship. If you're studying for one of those, drop a note and I'll let you know when that one's live.

Why $99?

Roughly the price of the A+ guide bundle ($49) plus 45 minutes of one-on-one strategy with someone who actually does the work. You're paying for the diagnosis, the personalized plan, and the exam-day playbook — not just materials. If you'd rather just have the materials, the guides start at $25.

Do I get the written plan, or just notes?

You get the full written plan within 24 hours. The 14-day study path, the weak-area summary, and the exam-day checklist — all in one document you can refer back to.

What if I'm 12 weeks out, not 4-8?

Still works, but we'd build a 14-day "diagnostic phase" plan first — get clarity on where you actually stand — and you'd book a follow-up closer to your exam date if you want a second pass. Not required.

Can I get a refund if I don't show up?

Reschedule once for free, no questions, via the Calendly link in your receipt. After that, the session is non-refundable — the slot is held for you and the cap means it would have otherwise gone to someone else.

Just want the guides — not the session?

Totally fine. The A+ guides and the Career Launch Suite are there for that. The strategy session is for people who already have the materials and want help putting them in the right order.

One session. Custom plan. $99.

Most people spend $200-400 on materials they don't end up using. This is the conversation that tells you which ones to actually open — and what order to work them in.
