Prerequisites
What problem is your feature request going to solve? Please describe.
This feature would speed up the adoption and deployment of Elementor-based sites by marketing agencies/freelancers. As a marketing agency/freelancer, it is expected you would have templates that are your starting point for new sites. These are often pre-structured (e.g., standard pages, sections in pages, menus, etc.) and styled (e.g. padding, spacing, mobile optimizations) and built for specific industries (e.g. one for construction, one for restaurants, etc.). These can also be your demo sites to land new business, and you'll often get clients saying, "I want that site for me." However, when it comes to delivering, you must set everything up from scratch in a client's Elementor account and repeat all structure/style work. Having the ability for an agency/freelancer to create a range of templated websites in their Elementor account, clone it in their account for a new client, customize it, and then transfer ownership/location to the client's Elementor account would be phenomenal. This would save time and drive more Elementor subscriptions (because the agency/freelancer is not hosting the client site in their own account). The transfer of the site to an account accessible to the client also provides a level of control/transparency that clients are demanding.
Describe the solution you'd like
In my.elementor.com, the ability to Transfer Site. Here, an invite can be sent to the client to invite them to claim ownership of the site and "move" it into their Elementor account (i.e. count against the total sites available in their plan). If the client doesn't have an Elementor account yet, they'd go through the usual sign-up process. An option to "retain agency/freelancer access to the site" would also allow those vendors who will provide ongoing support/maintenance of the site to stay involved, both on the Elementor/WP side of things.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Several alternatives, but none that greatly reduce the time and complexity like having a clone/edit/transfer functionality (i.e. those alternatives still involve plenty of manual steps).
