Lesson 3 of 5 7 min 70 XP

From Dispatch-First to Relationship-First

Learning objective

Explain why Passport changes the business model, not just the tooling.

Why this matters

Traditional home services end when the repair ends.

Passport creates an ongoing relationship instead of an isolated transaction.

Understanding the model change is what stops Passport being pitched as a feature.
