All of the benefits and deliverables of this program will terminate if you cease to be a member of the Smart Start or Smart Start Plus Programs.

We will offer you a personalized coaching session and support materials designed to accelerate the launch of your business or side hustle.

The Smart Start program includes one one- hour launch coaching session. The Smart Start Plus program includes a total of four coaching sessions, one each quarter. In addition, both programs provide the following materials and training over the course of your first year of membership:

Your Bonus website:
We will design and build a customized WordPress website for you from a template using a legally-licenced professional quality theme with a built-in page builder that will assist you in editin the website. We will teach and support you in learning to make changes to your own website after the initial content is created, for as long as you are a member of the program.
 
At this time, we plan to use the Elementor Pro Page Builder and the Astra Pro theme. These licences will not transfer to you if you leave our program, but your site will continue to function.
 
Support will be offered through our Private Facebook Group, as well as during “Office Hours” which are twice-monthly LIVE Q&A support sessions offered through the Private Facebook Group. Emergency Support will be available via email.
 
Your website will be backed up and protected against malware to the best of our ability. We will also take care of all WordPress updates, plugin updates, and theme updates during the term of this agreement.
 

Your WordPress Website will include:

  • 6-page WordPress Website
  • Keyword Research
  • Logo/Wordmark Insertion (You provide the graphics)
  • Favicon optimization
  • Mobile device optimization
  • Website Speed optimization
  • SEO optimization
  • HTTPS security certificate
  • Google Analytics code installation
  • Website hosting
  • Website backups
  • Website monthly maintenance
  • Branded email account setup
  • Contact form setup & test
  • Hack protection installation
This is an informational site which is structured for gathering leads for your product or service. It is NOT an ecommerce, portfolio display, membership or other specialty site. What you’ll get is your Home, About, Services and/or Products, Blog, Testimonials and Contact pages. These six pages are included in your bonus site. Actually, you’ll get 9 pages total, because we’ll include a draft Privacy Policy, Terms of Service and Sitemap page. You’ll need to edit your draft policies to customize them for your business information. We are not offering legal advice or templates, simply giving you an example to work from.
 
Your website will be up within two weeks after your second payment – in other words, six weeks after you start the program. That will give you
time to get your About page written (We’ll give you a lesson on that), get some photos and your logo to us, and give us time to schedule your initial private coaching session so that we’re clear on your vision for your business. You must fill out your six Start Right Planning Templates and submit them to us before we will commence work on your website.
CANCELLATION:
By enrolling in this program and making your first monthly payment, you agree to make a one-year minimum committment to the Smart Start Program.
 
However, sometimes personalities don’t fit, and it’s even possible I’ll tell you that I don’t think your business will work in our first session – I’m kind, but I’m also brutally honest if it will save my clients time and money.
 
If you want to cancel after our initial private call, you can do so with no further obligation as long as you do so before we build a website for you.
 
That means you have 48 hours after your first coaching call to email support@yournewcompany.com and say “I don’t want to continue”. After that, you’re committing to stick it out for at least a year, do the work, and build a thriving business!
 
WhAT HAPPENS IF I MISS A PAYMENT?:

If you miss a payment we’ll send you a reminder. If you are overdue over 14 days, the website we built for you will be taken down, the email will be deactivated, and there will be a $300 additional fee to move them live again. The site is not “yours” until the 12 month commitment has been met, and you agree to this by purchasing.

We bear no responsibility for loss of your business revenues, reputation or other damages if your site is taken down for non-payment, and you agree to this when making your purchase of the Smart Start or Smart Start Plus program.

To be clear: we retain copyright over all the site layout and content until your 12th montly payment is made. Any attempt to move or duplicate the site without our written consent within the first 12 months will result in DMCA complaints that will impact your site’s functionality. We will also pursue other legal and collection actions as we deem appropriate if you are in violation of this agreement.

After 12 months you’ll have to arrange to move the site if you don’t want to continue with us. See the next section: What if I want to cancel after 12 months?

 
WhAT IF I WANT TO CANCEL AFTER 12 MONTHS?:

If you want to cancel after your 12th month, you’ll need to inform us at least two weeks before your final bill date, and we’ll stop the billing after your 12th month invoice.

If you want to keep your website live, you’ll need to give us access to your new hosting platform by the time you want the billing stopped. You’ll need to have an “empty” WordPress installation there, and when we have access we’ll move everything over, at no charge. This free website migration is only available if requested within 30 days of cancellation.

You will be responsible for setting up your new email.

Under no circumstances will we ever take control of, or hold hostage, your domain name. Your domain name is yours.

You will lose access to the private Facebook Group and all support upon cancellation, of course.

If you don’t cancel after your 12th month you will continue to be billed monthly, and we will continue to maintain & monitor your site and support & educate you through the Facebook Group.

WhAT IF MY BUSINESS DOESN’T SUCCEED?:

There is no program or system which can guarantee the success of your business. That depends on you. This program will give you information, tools and support to increase your chances of success. However, execution of those processes depends on you and your available time and skill. We can take no responsibility for your business success, but we will encourage and support you while you’re a member of our programs.
