Sounds good, but wait! I have some Questions ? Ok, Let’s Get Into It…

That’s where I come in. Hi, I’m Biz Coach C! Let’s have some Q&A.

Q: The cost is $600. How do you expect me to pay that when I’m trying to get things off the ground?

A: I totally get it—starting something new, especially a nonprofit, can feel financially overwhelming. But here’s the thing: investing in this program is an investment in your success. You’re not just paying $600; you’re gaining the exact tools, resources, and guidance to get your nonprofit off the ground the right way—saving you time, money, and headaches in the long run. Plus, I offer flexible payment options so you can break it up into manageable installments. If you’re serious about building something impactful, this is the support that will get you there faster and with confidence. Let’s make it happen!

Q: It’s a group coaching program. What does “group coaching” even mean?

A: Group coaching means you'll be learning alongside other driven people like yourself, getting personalized guidance from me while also gaining valuable insights, support, and accountability from a community of peers who share similar goals.

Q: Will I get time with a business coach 1:1? I don’t want everyone in my business all the time.

A: Absolutely! While the program thrives on group support, you’ll also get dedicated 1:1 time with me to focus on your unique business needs privately.

It’s ok, I understand. There are a billion scams out there, and people who don’t deliver on their promises. I can guarantee you this. You are not the first to invest in this group, nor the first to ask all the important questions. Let me assure you, this program is not just talk— it’s your blueprint to creating a nonprofit that has the power to immediately go active and even go global after we’re done. If it doesn’t do what I promise, then you don’t pay for it. Simple as that.

So, Why Choose This Program?

Look, I know firsthand how confusing starting a nonprofit can be when you're figuring it all out on your own. I get it. It can certainly feel overwhelming. Maybe it’s:

A white table with a slice of cake, two drinks, a tablet, a smartphone, and a closed laptop in a room with window blinds, a black chair, a wooden side table with an electronic device and a speaker, and wall art.

🚨 No step-by-step guide to ensure everything’s done right.
🚨 No solid plan, fundraising strategy, or marketing to back you up.
🚨 No time to build the systems you need to make it work.

🚨 Unsure about legal requirements and missing critical steps.
🚨 Struggling to juggle writing bylaws, select a board, and everything else.
🚨 Spending all your time working on fleeting ideas, but never making real progress.

But here’s the thing: You don’t have to do it alone!

This 90-day program gives you the knowledge, power, and resources to go from struggling to confident— with clear, actionable steps to build a lasting nonprofit that works for YOU and the community you wish to serve. Now let’s go, we have dreams to accomplish!
