BizMaker Launchpad Coaching & Training Program
Most businesses under $250K don't have a marketing problem, they have a system problem. They're posting, networking, and hoping, but nothing repeats. BizMaker Launchpad fixes that in 30 days.
This is a self-paced, expert-led program built for business owners who need a client acquisition engine, not another to-do list. In four focused weeks, you'll nail down exactly who you serve, build messaging that actually gets a response, launch your first lead funnel, and activate the warm network you're already sitting on but not using.
No ad spend. No new software to learn. Just 2–3 hours a week and a proven roadmap that's already worked for other business owners in this exact revenue range.
You get on-demand training, done-for-you worksheets and templates, a live planning session to map your next 90 days, and a private strategy session to make sure the plan actually fits your business, not a generic one.
Investment: $147 (real value north of $1,000, backed by Chamber sponsors and grants).
If you've been busy but not building anything repeatable, this is the 30-day reset that ends the guesswork.
