Fact Finding Blog Post Template For Marine Blogs (Pre-Planning For Manual & AI Posts)

This Gumroad asset is a copy/paste “fact-finding” checklist framework you can drop into Google Docs to turn marine blog posts into a pre-qualifying, pre-selling system—so customers show up prepared before they call.

It gives you a repeatable structure for “Before you…” posts (bottom paint, bilge pumps, yard quotes, dock lines, charters, etc.) that includes:

• Best for / Not ideal for to filter tire-kickers
• What to measure (fitment + specs)
• What to photograph (labels, fittings, wiring, corrosion, measurements)
• What to note (symptoms, conditions, changes, constraints)
• Questions to ask to avoid wrong buys and bad quotes
• Red flags + a simple if/then decision shortcut
• “When to call a pro” (trust-building, no pressure)
• Soft CTA prompts that convert without sounding salesy

You also get a fill-in template so every post ships consistent, useful, and conversion-ready—driving higher-quality inquiries, less back-and-forth, and faster bookings/sales.
