Digital products for creators

We build the study guide your audience keeps asking for, and put someone else's name on it.

Exam prep, checkride prep and training plans for the people who already follow you. We build it, sell it and support it under your name. You check and approve the content, share the link, and 60% of every sale is paid to you automatically.

Where the money goes on one $79 guide

Your 60% is figured on the full sale price, before any fees. Example only; prices are set with you.

How it works

From a yes to a launch in about 30 days.

  1. A short call

    What your audience asks you most, and whether a product fits your channel.

  2. We build it

    Content, design, sales page, store and checkout, in your voice.

  3. You review and approve

    You check every question, answer or session for accuracy. Nothing goes live until you approve it.

  4. You share it

    Link in bio and 4 posts or stories in the first month. You're paid from the first sale.

Terms

The terms, in plain English.

These are the starting terms we put in writing before anything launches.

The split
You get 60% of every sale price, figured before any fees. We pay every platform and payment fee out of our 40%, so we earn nothing unless you do.
Cost to you
Nothing, ever. We pay for the build, the tools and the store.
Who runs it
We do: the store, checkout, sales tax, delivery, refunds and every buyer email.
Who writes it
We write every question, answer and session from the source: the code book, the regulations, the race format. You review each one for accuracy and approve it before your name goes on it.
Control
Your name, your voice. Nothing goes live without your yes, and nothing changes after launch without it.
Corrections
Reported errors are fixed within 7 days, and every buyer gets the corrected copy.
Getting paid
Your share is credited at checkout on every sale and paid to your bank automatically on the store's regular payout schedule. You open one free payout account, about 10 minutes, and see every sale in your own dashboard.
Your part
Review and approve the content before launch, about 3 to 5 hours once. Then keep the link in your bio, post about it 4 times in the launch month and mention it once a month.
Leaving
Either side can end it with 30 days' notice. The product comes down, and neither of us sells it without the other.

Who we work with

Creators who hold the credential or do the thing.

Your audience is working toward something specific: a license, a checkride, a first race. The content has to hold up in front of them, so your credential and your review are part of every product.

Who you'd work with

Blake Long, founder

Blake spent years teaching skydiving students as a certified instructor, and he builds the study guides his colleagues use to prepare for certification exams. He started Primer & Proof to give creators a finished product without the production work.

He's your one point of contact from the first call to every payout.

FAQ

Questions creators ask first.

How do you make money if it's free for me?

From our 40% of sales. If nothing sells, we don't get paid, which is why we only build products we expect to sell.

What if a question or answer is wrong?

You review every page before launch, and you or a buyer can flag an error at any time after. We fix it within 7 days and send every buyer the corrected copy.

Do I have to show my face or make new content?

No. Mention it in the videos and stories you already make and keep the link in your bio.

Do I have to set anything up?

One free payout account, so the store can pay you. It takes about 10 minutes, and it is the only account you open.

Who sets the price?

We set it together, based on what your audience already pays for similar products.

I already have sponsors. Is that a problem?

We check for conflicts on the first call. Nothing in our terms limits your other deals.

Is this exclusive?

Not for you. You can keep doing brand deals and selling your own things. We just won't sell this product without you.

Do I need to disclose that I earn from it?

Yes. Because you earn a share of sales, your posts say so clearly, as the FTC requires. We give you the wording.
