Monthly Coaching

Venture Accelerator Program is primarily monthly coaching for entrepreneurs building businesses. Download your Coaching Log and use it to track your progress each month as you and your coach work on your business.

[add coaching log here]

Coaching is scaled to the minimum coaching fees you pay. Minimums are tied to the monthly sales in your business. We use $2,500/month as the threshold for whether you are pre-revenue or revenue and if your expenses are less than your revenue then we consider you to be in profit. Here’s how that works:

Pre-Revenue: $99/month

If you are just starting out with an idea and working on getting it to market but your sales are below $2,500/month or don’t exist yet.

Hours included:

  • 1 Hour with your Coach

Revenue: $199/month

You have a product or service and you are selling it but not profitably. Your sales are more than $2,500/month but your expenses are higher than your sales.

Hours included:

  • 2 Hour with your Coach
    or
  • 1 Hour with an EIR

Profit: $299/month

You have a product or service, and your sales are above $2,500/month and you are profitabe.

Hours included:

  • 1.5 Hours with an EIR
    or
  • 1 Hour with your Coach and 1 Hour with an EIR

Upgrade Your Coaching

You can either buy additional hours of coaching here or you can upgrade your membership to include the higher level coaching that comes with additional monthly hours or specialized EIR coaching.

Onboarding

Your VAP Membership journey begins by preparing for your on-boarding meeting with your Coach:

Before your on-boarding session work through the Business Model Canvas Module. Download your Canvas (inside the module) and complete as much of your Canvas as you can. Bring your Canvas to your on-boarding session and your coach will work through it with you. Remember, this is the tool that guides your business as you move forward so if your Canvas is incomplete or has big holes that is to be expected on day one. This will be refined as you continue your coaching.

Core Business Training Course

Inside the Core Business Training you work through the foundations of business designed to help you launch and master your business. This course material is taught live every other month throughout the year but you may not want to wait for a live session so all of the training lives here for you to access anytime.

Inside this course are the manuals and notebooks for each section of the training.

Course Sections:

  • Creating Your Business Model Canvas (this is never taught live and only lives here)
  • Entrepreneurial Mindset
  • Market Validation
  • Marketing & Sales
  • Financial Management
  • Operations
  • Preparing for Investment

As you work through the training questions and issues about your business will surface that you then bring to your coach to work through together.
