What is the difference between a Tech Checkup and a Sprint?
A Tech Checkup is a review and recommendation package. A Sprint is a focused implementation package for a defined website, workflow, automation, documentation, or systems improvement.
Packages
Start small. Solve the right problem. Build from there.
MethodMade Studio packages are organized around where you are in the decision process: confirming fit, getting clarity, fixing one thing, building a connected system, or reserving ongoing support.
Package path
A simple way to choose without overbuying.
Start with the smallest useful next step. If the work grows, it should grow on purpose — not by accident.
1
Start with clarity
Use a paid Tech Checkup when you need expert review and a practical roadmap before choosing what to build.
2
Fix one useful thing
Choose a sprint when the problem is clear enough to scope and improve without a sprawling project.
3
Connect the pieces
Move into a larger engagement when the website, workflow, tools, documentation, or automation need to work together.
4
Keep improving
Use a retainer when the business needs priority support and ongoing improvements over time.
Decision guide
Choose by situation, not by jargon.
You do not need to know whether the answer is a website, workflow, automation, or systems audit before we talk. This guide helps narrow the starting point.
I am not sure what the problem is yet.
Start with a free Discovery Call or a Tech Checkup.
Best when you know something is unclear or hard to maintain but do not know whether the answer is website, workflow, automation, AI, or tool cleanup.
I want expert review before I invest.
Start with Tech Checkup Lite or Plus.
Best when you want a clearer recommendation, roadmap, or second opinion before committing to implementation.
I have one specific problem to fix.
Start with Quick Fix Sprint or Website or Workflow Sprint.
Best when there is a clear deliverable: a page, form, handoff, workflow, documentation set, or contained improvement.
Several parts need to connect.
Start with Systems Build Sprint or a larger engagement.
Best when the issue crosses multiple pages, tools, processes, automations, or team handoffs.
Package options
Clear starting points with protected scope.
Each package is designed to provide value without letting the work sprawl. Larger needs can be scoped as a larger engagement or moved into ongoing support.
Start Small
Clarity before commitment
Low-risk ways to get clarity before committing to a larger build.

Included approach
Every package starts with practical clarity.
Even small packages should leave you with a better understanding of what matters, what can wait, and what should happen next.
✓
Plain-English recommendations
You should understand what is being recommended and why it matters.
✓
Scope confirmation before work starts
The work should have a clear shape before implementation begins.
✓
Budget-conscious tool guidance
Tool choices should account for subscriptions, limits, ownership, and maintenance.
✓
Practical handoff notes
Where appropriate, you should leave with notes, next steps, or documentation.
✓
Client-owned account guidance
Core business accounts should stay under your control whenever possible.
Scope notes
Clear boundaries keep projects useful.
Packages work best when the goal, deliverables, assumptions, and handoff are clear before implementation starts.
Prices are starting points for the package scope shown. Larger or more complex work is quoted separately.
Third-party tools, hosting, domains, subscriptions, paid plugins, and usage-based costs are separate unless included in writing.
A package is not an unlimited bucket of work. Scope, deliverables, assumptions, and handoff expectations are confirmed before work begins.
If the work needs ongoing updates, monitoring, or improvement after launch, a retainer can be added separately.
Quick answers
Quick answers about packages.
Compact answers for people comparing checkups, sprints, larger projects, and tool-cost boundaries.
Which MethodMade package should I start with?
Start with a free Discovery Call if you are not sure. Choose a Tech Checkup for review, a Quick Fix Sprint for one contained problem, and a larger package when multiple pieces need to connect.
Are third-party tools included in package pricing?
Third-party tools, hosting, domains, subscriptions, paid plugins, and usage-based costs are separate unless they are included in writing for a specific project.
