Frequently Asked Questions

How long will it take?
Each entrepreneur is different, so depending at which stage you are at, we offer a flexible path to launching your idea. Our formal programs are divided into 3 primary stages:
Stage One: Is designed to Ignite your idea through a 5 week workshop titled IGNITION. Each workshop lasts 1-2 hours and is scheduled on a weekly basis.
Stage Two: Following your initial 5 week workshop, we help network you with industry partners. Continual online support is provided within our web portal titled FUEL.
Stage Three: Consists of a follow-up workshop, offered on a quarterly basis, for continual support and mentoring.

What happens in the workshop?
Similar to a rocket's initial stage of breaking through the atmosphere, IGNITE's focus is to kick start your idea with inspired coaching. We provide you with the initial inspiration, motivation and guidance to get you moving.

How do I get supported after the workshop?
We have developed an online secure web portal, titled FUEL, that allows you to continue collaborating with us. Through this web portal, you can post unlimited questions, access our library, upload files for our review and stay networked. The cost to access this portal is $29 a month. We also offer ongoing quarterly workshops where you meet with us once every quarter for 2 hours. Here we can continue to inspire you and review your progress.

What is the 'networking' all about?
We have built an extensive business network for the past 10 years through our other companies. We strive to network you with industry partners, suppliers and potential clients here at IGNITE and through our web portal that we feel may be a fit for your company or idea. Although we don't guarantee a perfect match, we are strong believers in the power of networking.

What about confidentiality?
We sign a confidentiality agreement with you at the start of your workshop. We make a best effort at keeping your information confidential with standard industry practices relating to confidentiality. Access to your files and electronic communication with us is secured through our 128 bit encrypted client management system. We only communicate electronically with you through this secure system.

I have a business partner. How will the fees work if I bring them to the coaching session?
If you wish to bring a second person to a coaching session, then we can accommodate them at a 50% reduced workshop fee.

How does the online support/portal work?
We don't email, we assign you a designated username, password and secure project on our online web portal, FUEL. Only you and our team has access to your secure project. This is where you collaborate with us by uploading project files and adding notes that then get emailed to us. You can also access the entrepreneur library which houses worksheets and other training material. Your account is set up at the start of your workshop. You then have the option to maintain your account by paying a monthly access fee.
