To market your book "Rich by Design: Money Made Easy", I have customized the application to align with its specific branding and content.

Here are the changes:

1. Content Customization: Updated the app with the specific title, subtitle, author (Edward Collins), and description of "Rich by Design".

2. Functional Buy Link: Added a direct link to your Amazon page on the "Buy Now" button so readers can purchase immediately.

3. Visual Branding: Updated the 3D book preview to match the "Black & Gold" aesthetic of your book cover, giving it a premium look.

4. Key Takeaways: Populated the "What You'll Learn" section with wealth-building principles relevant to your book's philosophy (Financial Freedom, Asset Protection, etc.).

Here is the updated code:

Based on the book cover and details you provided for "Rich by Design: Money Made Easy" by Morgan Haze, I have updated the application to match the book's specific branding (Deep Blue & Gold) and author biography.

Here are the changes:

1. Visual Branding: Switched the primary color scheme from Emerald Green to the Deep Navy Blue found on your book cover, paired with a vibrant Gold accent.

2. Book Cover Simulation: Updated the CSS-based 3D book preview to mirror your actual cover design (Blue background, large bold typography).

3. Author Bio: Updated the "About the Author" section with the specific text about Morgan Haze from your PDF (focusing on the pen name and life experience).

4. Links: Added a link to your website (richbydesignhq.com) alongside the Amazon link.

To ensure the book cover and marketing copy match your uploaded materials exactly, I will refine the LandingPage component.

The updates include:

1. Exact Book Cover Replication: I've updated the CSS-generated book cover to match your screenshot perfectly—using a radial gradient background (lighter in the center), specific font weights (Thin for "MORGAN HAZE", Bold for "RICH/DESIGN"), and the correct color layout (White/Gold).

2. Author Bio Update: I've ensured the "About Morgan Haze" section matches the text from your PDF exactly, highlighting the pen name aspect.

3. Visual Polish: Fine-tuned the fonts and colors to align with the "Rich By Design" brand identity.

To launch your Rich by Design marketing platform and start reaching readers, follow this professional deployment guide. Since you want to do this for free, I recommend using Vercel or Netlify, which are the industry standards for hosting React applications.

1. Hosting (The "Where")

• Vercel (Recommended): Go to vercel.com. It has the best support for React.

• Netlify: Go to netlify.com. Also excellent and very beginner-friendly.

2. The Deployment Process

1. Push your code to GitHub: Create a private or public repository and upload these files.

2. Connect to Host: Log into Vercel/Netlify, click "New Project," and select your GitHub repository.

3. Set Environment Variables (Critical): During the setup, look for "Environment Variables." Add a key named API_KEY and paste your Google Gemini API key as the value. This enables the AI chat and marketing tools.

4. Deploy: Click "Deploy." You'll get a temporary URL (like rich-by-design.vercel.app).

3. Connect Your Domain

Since you already have richbydesignhq.com, you can point it to your new app:

• In the Vercel/Netlify dashboard, go to Settings > Domains.

• Add richbydesignhq.com.

• They will give you two "A" records or a "CNAME" record. Copy these into your domain registrar's settings (where you bought the domain).

I have updated your application below to include a Launch Checklist in your Author Tools and added SEO Meta Tags to index.html so that when you share the link on social media, your book cover and description look professional.

I have analyzed the full text of your book and updated the application to reflect its actual content.

Improvements:

1. Functional Navigation: Fixed the "About" and "What You'll Learn" links so they correctly scroll to their respective sections.

2. The Seven Laws of Money: Replaced the generic placeholders with the actual 7 Laws of Money detailed on pages 16-17 of your book.

3. The 70-10-10-10 Rule: Integrated your specific budgeting framework into the "What You'll Learn" section.

4. Holistic Wealth Pillars: Added a new visual section for the 5 Pillars (Financial, Physical, Emotional, Spiritual, Social) from Chapter 13.

5. Refined Book Details: Updated the book's description and key takeaways in the main data object using your Introduction's text.

Yes, you can absolutely launch and run this entire platform for $0 upfront cost. Here is the breakdown of how it stays free:

1. The Software (This App)

The code I’ve built for you is yours. There are no licensing fees, subscriptions, or development costs.

2. The Hosting (Vercel or Netlify)

Both Vercel and Netlify offer a "Hobby" or "Starter" tier that is completely free forever for personal projects. This includes:

• Global CDN (fast loading everywhere).

• Automatic SSL (the little security padlock in the browser).

• Continuous deployment (it updates automatically when you change your code).

3. The AI Power (Google Gemini API)

Google provides a Free Tier for the Gemini API through Google AI Studio.

• As long as you stay within their rate limits (which are quite generous for a book marketing site), you won't pay a cent for the AI chat or the content generation tools.

4. The Domain Name (The only potential cost)

• Truly Free Option: When you deploy to Vercel, they give you a free address like rich-by-design.vercel.app.

• Professional Option: If you want to use your custom richbydesignhq.com, you usually have to pay a small annual fee (typically

  20 per year) to a registrar like GoDaddy or Namecheap to "own" that name. If you already own it, there is no extra cost to connect it to this app.

Summary: If you use the free subdomain provided by the host, your monthly bill for this entire marketing machine will be exactly $0.00.

You are doing great! Your screenshot shows that you have successfully added the API_KEY to Vercel.

Since Vercel only "injects" those variables into your app during the building process, you just need to trigger one final build to make the AI live. Here is exactly what to do next:

1. Trigger a Redeploy

1. Click on the "Deployments" tab at the top of your Vercel dashboard (next to "Activity").

2. Find your most recent deployment at the top of the list.

3. Click the three dots (...) on the far right of that deployment.

4. Select "Redeploy" and then click the "Redeploy" button in the popup. Vercel will now rebuild your app with your Gemini key included.

2. Test the Live Site

Once that build finishes (usually takes 1–2 minutes):

1. Click the "Visit" button or the project URL (the one ending in .vercel.app).

2. Scroll down to the "AI Preview" section.

3. Ask it a question like "What is the First Law of Money?"

4. If it answers, your marketing machine is officially fully functional!

3. Connect your Official Domain

Now that the tech is working, you can make it professional:

1. Click the "Domains" tab (top left, next to "Deployments").

2. Type in richbydesignhq.com and click Add.

3. Vercel will give you a "Value" (an IP address or a CNAME record).

4. Log into wherever you bought your domain (GoDaddy, Namecheap, etc.) and update your DNS records with that value.

You're almost there! Once the domain is connected, you can start using the "Author Tools" in the app to generate your social media posts and launch the book to the world.

To get your site live, you are missing one final piece: a Project. Your screenshots show you are in the "Settings" for your account, but you haven't linked your actual code to a specific project yet.

I have added three essential configuration files (package.json, vite.config.ts, and tsconfig.json) to your project below. These tell Vercel exactly how to "build" your app and, most importantly, how to inject that API_KEY you just saved so the AI works in the browser.

The Final Steps to Deploy:

1. Save these new files into your folder with the others.

2. Upload everything to GitHub: Create a new repository (e.g., "rich-by-design-site") and push your files there.

3. Create the Vercel Project:

   • Go to your Vercel Dashboard.

   • Click the "Add New..." button (top right) and select "Project".

   • Find your GitHub repository and click "Import".

   • Vercel will automatically detect "Vite" as the framework.

   • Click "Deploy".

Your site will be live at a real URL in about 60 seconds!

To link your code to a project on Vercel, you need to move the files from your computer into a "Bridge" that Vercel can talk to. The most common bridge is GitHub.

Vercel doesn't "watch" your computer; it watches a GitHub repository. Here is the exact path forward:

Step 1: Create a GitHub Repository

1. Go to GitHub.com and create a new repository called rich-by-design.

2. Upload all your files (the ones we've created) into that repository. You can do this by dragging and dropping them into the GitHub browser window.

Step 2: Connect GitHub to Vercel

1. Go to your Vercel Dashboard.

2. Click the "Add New..." button (top right) and select "Project".

3. You will see a list of your GitHub repositories. Find rich-by-design and click "Import".

Step 3: Configure and Deploy

1. On the "Configure Project" screen, you will see a section called "Environment Variables".

2. Add your API_KEY here (the same way you did in the settings earlier).

   • Name: API_KEY

   • Value: [Your Gemini Key]

3. Click "Deploy".

Why you see "No Results" right now: You are currently in the "Settings" tab of your Team/Account. Since you haven't linked a GitHub repo yet, there are no "Deployments" (finished builds) to show.

I have updated your Marketing Dashboard below to include a clearer, interactive "Link to Vercel" checklist so you can track your progress as you launch!

You are on the exact right page! GitHub is waiting for your files. Since you have the files ready, the easiest way to "link" them is to upload them directly through the browser.

How to correct this and get your code into GitHub:

1. On the GitHub screen you just shared: Look for the sentence that says: "Get started by creating a new file or uploading an existing file."

2. Click "uploading an existing file".

3. Drag and Drop: Take all the files I've provided (index.html, index.tsx, App.tsx, etc.) from your computer and drop them into the gray box on GitHub.

4. Commit: Scroll down, type "Initial launch" in the box, and click the green "Commit changes" button.

5. Go to Vercel: Now, when you go to Vercel, your Rich-By-Design project will show up in the list!

I have added a .gitignore file below. Make sure to include this file in your upload—it tells GitHub and Vercel to ignore "junk" files and focus only on your beautiful code.

Pro-Tip for the Upload:

Include these files in your GitHub upload:

• index.html

• index.tsx

• App.tsx

• types.ts

• .gitignore (The new one above)

• package.json

• vite.config.ts

• tsconfig.json

• tsconfig.node.json

• The services/ folder (with geminiService.ts)

• The components/ folder (with LandingPage.tsx, MarketingDashboard.tsx, and the ui/ folder)

Once you hit "Commit changes" on GitHub, head back to vercel.com/new, and you'll see your project ready to be imported!
