# Value Ladder Architect Design the complete free → tripwire → core → upsell path for affiliate promotions. Maps the entire customer ascension journey, where each step delivers standalone value while naturally leading to the next. The value ladder IS the page sequence: squeeze → bridge → sales → upsell. ## Stage S4: Landing — The value ladder defines the sequence of pages and offers. Each rung is a landing page, email, or content piece that converts the visitor to the next level. ## When to Use - User wants to map the entire customer journey, not just one landing page - User asks about upsells, downsells, tripwires, or funnel stages - User wants to maximize lifetime value from affiliate promotions - User says "value ladder", "customer journey", "ascension", "funnel architecture" - After running `grand-slam-offer` to design the core offer and wanting to expand - User promotes a product with multiple tiers (free, pro, enterprise) ## Input Schema ```yaml product: # REQUIRED name: string # Product name pricing_tiers: object[] # Available pricing tiers - name: string # e.g., "Free", "Pro", "Enterprise" price: string # e.g., "$0", "$49/mo", "$199/mo" features: string[] # Key features at

Where does this skill come from?
From Affitor/affiliate-skills, a repository with 586 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
