Frequently Asked Questions

What can I use 1:1 mentoring sessions for?

Anything business-related: pricing, contracts, lead gen, brand audits, client challenges, or leadership support. It's your time — we customize it to your goals.

How often do I meet with my mentor?

Most members start with biweekly or monthly sessions, depending on the plan. Some book intensives for deep dives into strategy or restructuring.

Can I switch mentors if needed?

Yes. We aim for aligned matches, but if your needs evolve, we’ll rematch you with someone who fits your next phase.

What’s the difference between mentoring and consulting?

Mentoring is collaborative and empowering — we don’t do the work for you, we guide you to lead your business with clarity and confidence.

Is this available without joining the full program?

Yes. You can book standalone mentoring packages or add it to your membership or course track.

Can I bring my co-founder or partner?

Absolutely. We support leadership teams — just let us know when scheduling and we’ll structure accordingly.

What courses do you currently offer?

Our core programs include Sales Strategy for Recruiters, Niche Marketing for Staffing Firms, The Client Retention Playbook, and Systems That Scale.

How do I know which course is best for me?

We offer a course map and personal recommendations based on your goals, niche, and stage of business — whether you're launching, stabilizing, or scaling.

Are the courses live, self-paced, or hybrid?

Most courses are self-paced with access to live Q&A, feedback sessions, and bonus coaching calls to keep you supported and on track.

Can I take more than one course at once?

Yes, but we recommend starting with one core course to build momentum before layering in others. Our programs are designed to complement each other.

Will I get templates or real tools?

Yes! We include scripts, templates, swipe files, email sequences, and workflow tools to help you implement quickly — not just theory.

Do your courses come with a community?

Yes — you’ll join a private group of fellow founders for accountability, resource sharing, and collective support.

What’s included in your business coaching support?

We cover marketing, client acquisition, pricing, service design, systems, and mindset. It's designed specifically for staffing entrepreneurs ready to grow intentionally.

Do I need to be an agency owner to join?

Not at all. We support solopreneurs, freelancers, new founders, and experienced agency leaders alike. If you're building or scaling a recruiting business, you belong here.

How personalized is the coaching?

Our group coaching is tailored by industry and business stage, and all members get access to office hours, live Q&A sessions, and hot seat coaching.

Is this only for BIPOC professionals?

We center BIPOC voices and values, but welcome all allies committed to equity and cultural alignment in staffing and hiring.

What types of staffing niches do you support?

We specialize in IT, healthcare, nonprofit, logistics, admin, education, and fractional/consulting staffing models.

How long does it take to see results?

Many members land new clients, raise their prices, or streamline operations within 30–90 days. Growth depends on your stage and consistency — but we give you a clear path.

What are the pricing options for your programs?

We offer tiered pricing for courses, coaching, and mentoring. You can choose pay-in-full or monthly installments — both come with full access.

Do you offer scholarships or sliding scale pricing?

Yes. We offer limited scholarships each quarter and discounts for nonprofit founders and returning members. Ask us how to apply.

Can I upgrade or switch programs later?

Absolutely. You can move between tracks or bundle programs as your business grows. We’re here to support your evolution.

What’s your refund policy?

All sales are final. Due to the digital nature of our programs and the immediate access to proprietary tools and coaching, we do not offer refunds for any courses, memberships, or mentoring sessions.

Is there a contract or commitment?

Memberships and courses are commitment-free after your paid period ends. 1:1 mentoring may have minimum terms depending on your plan.

Can I expense this as a business investment?

Yes! Most members write this off as professional development or consulting. We provide invoices and receipts for your records.
