Coaching group

Twelve weeks, your real business, coached live.

Two live calls a week with Charbel and a small group of founders, all working the same moves on your own businesses. You finish the twelve weeks with the work done, not filed away for later.

Founding intro $3,950. A Kit of your choice is included. If you've done the $297 course, that comes off the price.

What's in it

What you'll have at the end

a priced offer in front of real customers, and their responses to it
the handful of numbers that tell you whether the business is working, tracked every week
the parts you were holding up by hand turned into something that runs without you
a plan for the next quarter, and the reasons behind it

Who it's for

Starting out.You have an idea and no map. You leave having launched it and picked up the parts of business nobody teaches.

Building inside a company.Being good at your own discipline has stopped being enough. You leave able to talk to finance, sales and the board on their terms.

Already running a business.You're strong in one or two areas and know the rest has moved on. You leave with the gaps closed and a business that leans on you less.

Done the course? It comes off the price

If you've bought the $297 Young Founders course, that $297 comes off your coaching fee when you upgrade within 60 days. The course gets you moving on your own. The coaching group is where you do it live, with Charbel and a room around you.

Who runs it

Charbel is a serial founder, a creative and an educator. He's been starting businesses since 1988, across hospitality, retail, technology, design and education, founded Academy Xi, grew it to a $22 million valuation and sold his stake for seven figures, and has coached 8,500 people. He built each of those businesses, and each one built him back, and that's the belief the coaching runs on. He runs every call himself.

Meet Charbel

If a member is under 18

Every member owns their own work, whatever their age. If your young person is under 18 you get access alongside them, you see the same messages they do, and you're welcome to sit in on the live calls. Sessions are recorded and stay inside the group. No adult speaks to a minor privately, every coach holds a current Working With Children Check, and the coaching goes to the young person, because the point is their judgement and their independence. Members over 18 take part as adults.

Founding places

The founding intro rate is $3,950, and it rises after the first group. Founding members set the tone of the room. Places are capped, because two live calls a week with Charbel only works with a small group.

Questions

Is it live, or recorded? Live, twice a week, with Charbel and the group. Calls are recorded so you can catch up if you miss one.
