Update the Web Design & Hosting package estimator (public/templates/public/web_design.html / public/web_design_pricing.py) so Email & SMS and Direct mail feature descriptions call out two selling points that are currently missing.
Add messaging that the Email & SMS add-on includes (or supports) a dedicated SMS phone number, and that text message rates can be as low as $0.008 / message.
Suggested direction (copy can be refined):
Mention dedicated SMS number in the feature description (and/or a short note near usage billing disclaimer).
Call out SMS rates as low as $0.008 per message (usage still billed separately from build/monthly).
2. Direct mail — address verification
Add address verification to the Direct mail feature description so prospects know lists can be validated before print/send.
Suggested direction:
Extend direct_mail description to include address verification alongside postcard designer + print/send.
Likely touchpoints
public/web_design_pricing.py — update email_sms and direct_mail descriptions (primary source for estimator UI)
Confirm copy also surfaces correctly via WebMCP / SEO contexts that reuse features_for_json()
Update any related tests in public/tests.py if they assert exact description strings
Optional: align disclaimer / intro line on web_design.html if SMS rate callout belongs there too
Acceptance criteria
Email & SMS feature copy mentions dedicated SMS phone number
Email & SMS feature copy mentions SMS rates as low as $0.008 / message
Direct mail feature copy mentions address verification
Pricing estimator on /web-design/ (or equivalent route) shows updated copy
Prefer updating catalog descriptions in web_design_pricing.py rather than hardcoding in the template.
## Summary
Update the Web Design & Hosting package estimator (`public/templates/public/web_design.html` / `public/web_design_pricing.py`) so Email & SMS and Direct mail feature descriptions call out two selling points that are currently missing.
## Current state
In `public/web_design_pricing.py`:
- **Email & SMS** (`email_sms`): `Campaigns, mailing list, engagement reports.`
- **Direct mail** (`direct_mail`): `Postcard designer + print/send. Postage separate.`
## Requested changes
### 1. Email & SMS — dedicated SMS phone number + rates
Add messaging that the Email & SMS add-on includes (or supports) a **dedicated SMS phone number**, and that text message rates can be **as low as $0.008 / message**.
Suggested direction (copy can be refined):
- Mention dedicated SMS number in the feature description (and/or a short note near usage billing disclaimer).
- Call out SMS rates as low as **$0.008 per message** (usage still billed separately from build/monthly).
### 2. Direct mail — address verification
Add **address verification** to the Direct mail feature description so prospects know lists can be validated before print/send.
Suggested direction:
- Extend `direct_mail` description to include address verification alongside postcard designer + print/send.
## Likely touchpoints
- [ ] `public/web_design_pricing.py` — update `email_sms` and `direct_mail` descriptions (primary source for estimator UI)
- [ ] Confirm copy also surfaces correctly via WebMCP / SEO contexts that reuse `features_for_json()`
- [ ] Update any related tests in `public/tests.py` if they assert exact description strings
- [ ] Optional: align disclaimer / intro line on `web_design.html` if SMS rate callout belongs there too
## Acceptance criteria
- [ ] Email & SMS feature copy mentions dedicated SMS phone number
- [ ] Email & SMS feature copy mentions SMS rates as low as $0.008 / message
- [ ] Direct mail feature copy mentions address verification
- [ ] Pricing estimator on `/web-design/` (or equivalent route) shows updated copy
- [ ] Existing pricing estimate behavior unchanged (build/monthly amounts, dependencies)
## Notes
- Usage (SMS / postage) remains billed separately from catalog build/monthly pricing.
- Prefer updating catalog descriptions in `web_design_pricing.py` rather than hardcoding in the template.
