Outcome: a handoff folder the client can use without another call. 1. Agree deliverables -> approved deliverables list. 2. Collect files -> folder separating sources, finished assets, and instructions. 3. Transfer access -> account ownership list, without passwords. 4. Teach one recurring task -> instructions for updating a page. 5. Test acceptance -> client finds a file and completes the update. 6. Define follow-up -> support period and future request route. ## Before sharing - [ ] Each chapter has a distinct purpose. - [ ] Factual claims and quotations are checked. - [ ] Examples are correctly labeled and permissions recorded. - [ ] Headings, contents, images, and links work in the actual export. - [ ] A reader has tried the instructions without coaching. - [ ] The release file, date, and remaining limitations are recorded.
