We can AB test. Send some mails to founders with the price and some
without.

Few other feedback

The affected posts are their “best Google posts.” - Public pages do not
establish search traffic or commercial importance. u need  Search Console
or analytics

 These problems are “costing you sales today.” - They create dead ends.
Actual lost sales require traffic and conversion evidence.  The
discontinued-product context particularly weakens this claim.

“Ten minutes either way” - an estimate, particularly doubtful for
rebuilding a page and waitlist.

Send it out sunday and start to do similar for 9 other websites and send
that to me tomorrow. You need speed. 5 should have price, 5 no price. and
we see what the results are. I reckon you need to send out 150 emails to
get 1 yes.
