đź“… 4th cohort starts March 16th 2026 @ 7:00 PM ET / 4:00 PM PT
Move from building to guiding in an AI-driven industry
A 4-day workshop that helps you design a repeatable high-value offer you can run as a solo business, guiding companies through a problem you’ve already solved—without being the implementer.
You’ve built serious technical skills, but you still feel like a task-runner.
Deep down, you probably know you’re worth more to a business than getting paid a salary—or by the hour.
💡 What you’re missing isn’t ability. It’s positioning.
The 4-day Signature Offer Workshop is where experienced software professionals finally stop being measured by output, and step into work that pays what their impact is actually worth.
This workshop is about a smarter way of working in tech. Where companies pay you to guide them to solve a problem that needs your direction and insights. And you’re paid for how your work impacts the business—not the hours you work.
Getting paid for your business impact unlocks the freedom and autonomy that’s missing from your career. And companies treat you like a partner, not a pair of hands.
In just four days, you’ll map your experience to business value, design an offer that positions you as a trusted guide, and know which people make the best potential clients to discuss it with.
📅 DATE: March 16th to 19th 2026 — 4th cohort now enrolling
Build an offer for a signature service that shifts you from builder to guide, along with other experienced software professionals over Zoom.
“From skilled contributor struggling for leverage →
to technical guide controlling your direction, income, and future.”
The 4-day shift from skilled contributor to trusted guide
Most experienced developers think the only way forward is climbing higher up the ladder—or grinding it out in hourly consulting or freelancing.
But both paths keep you stuck in someone else’s game. This workshop is different.
In 4 sessions, you’ll shift out of skilled contributor thinking and step into the clarity, confidence, and control of a trusted guide with a signature offer.
đź“… Day 1: Reframe Your Value
Most experienced developers can do a lot of things. But every new project only values a fraction of that experience. Over time, the rest of your skills fade into the background, and your return on learning keeps shrinking. Being seen as a generalist shuts you out of key decisions, and caps your earning potential.
On day 1, you’ll step back and look at your career through a business lens—growth, efficiency, risk, and user satisfaction. You’ll choose to help companies overcome a problem they have with achieving a business goal (the measurable outcome leadership actually cares about). By the end of the day, you’ll see how to position yourself as a guide for overcoming a technical aspect of that problem, rooted in your experience.
đź“… Day 2: Narrow Your Options
The mistake most developers make is thinking they should offer the thing they do best. But it’s not enough to be capable. Valuable service offers also need a market with enough companies to build your business on—and have employees who urgently want to solve the problem you help with.
On day 2, you’ll determine which industry vertical, and which problem you’ve solved is the best fit for your offer. By the end of the day, you’ll know the top 3 best candidates for your high-value offer.
đź“… Day 3: Design Your Delivery
Coding, configuration, and building other technical assets is where all developers start their career. But showing companies how to do those things without being the one to do them yourself is what makes companies see you as a strategic partner.
On day 3, you’ll explore how audits, training, workshops, and other delivery vehicles increase your value well beyond slinging code. It’s hard to justify paying you a premium for work most employees can do. By the end of the day, you’ll see how you can guide your client to help themselves solve their problem. And you’ll use value-based pricing to make sure your offer is worth at least $300/hr.
đź“… Day 4: Claim Your Position
Moving from employee to Technical Guide isn’t just about having a good idea. It requires a shift in how you see your role, your value, and what you’re allowed to learn.
On Day 4, you’ll step out of an employee mindset and begin claiming your position as a Technical Guide. You’ll define how you talk about what you do in a way that reflects real business value, not just technical output. By the end, you’ll have a clear external identity and the confidence to move forward—either by starting real conversations with people who care about the problem you solve, or by recognizing where a bit more clarity is needed before taking the next step.
This workshop is not for everyone.
This is for people ready to be known for their true impact. Not hide behind the keyboard.
Who this IS for
- You’re in senior, lead, or consultant technical roles—and know your skills aren’t being fully valued.
- You’re tired of watching companies profit 10x off your work while you argue salary or bill rates.
- You want to own your time and direction. But need a structured way to start.
- You’re willing to say “no” to work that doesn’t help you build authority around specific business problem you guide.
Who this is NOT for
- You want certainty that your offer is perfect before sharing it with anyone.
- You want a guaranteed client or a passive lead system.
- You’re not willing to talk to people who own outcomes (even gently, as exploration).
- You want to pick a technical niche, not a business-objective-led offer.
Why this workshop actually works
Many developers try to go solo through hourly freelancing or contracting.
But they stall without an clear offer about what they will and WON’T do that creates leverage.
This workshop gives you a starting position and language to begin learning from real conversations—and that’s what leads to sales.
In 4 days you’ll leave with:
- A clear business value position so decision makers treat you as a strategic partner.
- A list of potential guiding activities you can deliver repeatedly to multiple clients.
- A target market focus so you know which industry and buyer to get your offer in front of.
- A first pass at pricing so you pursue an offer with a potential $300/hr or more for your time.
- A next step recommendation so you know whether you’re ready to talk to people, or more clarity is needed first.
How this workshop uses AI
Drafting an offer that guides companies requires learning new concepts, completing activities, and being coached through challenges that arise.
The Signature Offer Workshop provides access to the DevReborn Offer Assistant Legion.
The Legion is a set of four custom GPTs that will assist you in completing activities. These purpose-built chatbots help you apply the unique experiences you’ve had over your tech career, to the structured processes in the workshop.
By using the Legion, you’ll get interactive help and avoid common mistakes.
What you do with these chatbots runs inside your own ChatGPT account.
Meet your guide
I’m Jayme Edwards, and I’ve spent 30 years in software industry. First as a developer and architect, then as a consultant, coach, and creator. Over the years I’ve worked with more than 25 companies across industries ranging from finance to healthcare to energy. That breadth taught me a critical lesson: no matter the stack or domain, developers face the same trap of being undervalued.
Through my YouTube channels “Developer Reborn”, “Healthy Developer”, and private coaching—I’ve worked with hundreds of developers worldwide. And I’ve seen firsthand how reframing their experience into business value can help them get higher leverage while working in tech.
