The Business Launch Program

Your whole business, built and running in 15 business days.

Entity, EIN, website, brand, payments, booking, CRM, payroll, books — we build all ten. Then you get six months in a room that meets five days a week, with people building right alongside you.

The reason it's still an idea

You know what you'd sell. You're missing the other ten things.

Maybe you've had the idea two years. Maybe ten. You know you'd be good at it. You've probably told a few people about it at dinner.

What you don't have is:

  • An EIN
  • A registered entity
  • A Google listing
  • A website
  • A logo and brand
  • A way to take payment
  • A way to book appointments
  • Somewhere leads don't get lost
  • Payroll, for when you hire
  • Books that won't horrify your accountant

Ten things. Every one of them is a reason to not start this week. That's why the idea is still an idea.

Part one — the build

We don't advise you on these. We do them.

Not a checklist. Not a course about how to set up a CRM. We build it, we test it, and we hand you a business that works.

Guarantee one

Fifteen business days, or we pay you.

All ten components live and operational within 15 business days of kickoff. If we're late, you get $500 back. More than 10 business days late, the entire build is free.

What the clock excludes
  • Google Business Profile verification — Google controls the timeline, and it can take up to three weeks.
  • Payment processor approval — the processor underwrites the application, not us.
  • State filing turnaround — set by your Secretary of State.
  • Any period where we're waiting on materials from you. The clock pauses; it doesn't reset.
Part two — the room

Infrastructure isn't a business.

A website doesn't call anybody. A CRM doesn't close anything. Plenty of people have a beautiful setup and no revenue.

So the second half is six months in a room that meets five days a week, two hours a day. Live. Not a recording library you'll never open.

Monday2 hours
Momentum Monday

What moved last week, what didn't, what stopped you, and what you're committing to over the next seven days. This is the one that catches you on the morning you feel behind and want to disappear.

Tuesday2 hours
Tech Talk Tuesday

Your stack, your automations, and the AI tools that let one person operate like four.

Wednesday2 hours
Q&A Day

Bring the problem you're actually stuck on. We solve it live, in front of everyone. No slides.

Thursday2 hours
Cold Call Training

Not a lecture about cold calling. We dial. You dial. We coach you through it in real time. You leave having made calls, not having watched someone talk about making them.

Friday2 hours
Federal Friday

Colorado Springs has five military installations and one of the densest federal contracting markets in the country. Most small businesses here never bid. This is where you find out whether yours could →

Part three — the plan

Before we build anything, we write your plan together.

Not a generic one. Yours — based on what you sell, what you charge, who buys it, and where you're starting from.

Specific milestones, on a specific timeline, that we both sign. Then we back it.

Guarantee two

Hit your side. If we miss the plan, you don't pay for it.

Meet the participation requirements below, and if you haven't reached the milestones in your signed plan at the end of six months, we refund your program fee in full.

What you have to do to qualify
  • Attend at least one live class per week for 26 weeks. Any class you choose. A class counts as attended when you are present for at least 60 cumulative minutes of a scheduled 120-minute session. Attendance is tracked automatically and shown in your dashboard, so you always know exactly where you stand.
  • Complete the action items in your signed plan. Documented as you go, in the same dashboard.
  • Supply the records that verify the milestones — bank statements or accounting reports — within 30 days of month six.
  • Request the refund in writing within 45 days of the end of month six.

Not everyone is eligible for Guarantee Two. During your consultation we assess whether your business can realistically reach a meaningful plan in six months. If we don't believe it can, we'll tell you — and you can still buy the build without the milestone guarantee, or walk away. We'd rather lose the sale than write a plan neither of us believes.

Investment

One price. Everything above.

$2,500

The complete build + six months in the room

Financing available. Approved applicants can spread it over 12 or 24 months, so it's a monthly payment instead of a wall.

Government filing fees, domain registration, and third-party software subscriptions are paid directly by you at cost. Our fee covers the work.

What I won't tell you.

I won't tell you what you're going to make.

Nobody honestly can — and anyone who puts a number in front of you before they've met you, looked at your market, and understood what you're selling is selling you something other than a business.

Here's what I will tell you. You'll have a real, complete, operating business in fifteen business days. You'll have five days a week of people who have done this before. You'll have a plan built for your specific business, not a template pulled off a shelf.

And if we set that plan together, you do your part, and it doesn't happen — you don't pay for it.

Questions

The things people ask.

What if I don't have a business idea yet?

Then this isn't the right time. The consultation starts with what you intend to sell and who buys it. If you're still deciding, we'd rather talk in a few months than build infrastructure for a business you haven't chosen.

Can you guarantee I'll make money?

No, and you should be skeptical of anyone who does. What we guarantee is our delivery, on a deadline, and the plan we build with you. Your results depend on your market, your effort, and a dozen things neither of us controls.

I already have a business. Is this for me?

Sometimes. If you're missing pieces of the infrastructure, the build still applies. If you're already fully set up, the room on its own may be a better fit.

What if I can't make a class every week?

You can still take the program. You just won't qualify for the milestone guarantee, which requires one class a week for 26 weeks. Every session is recorded, and recordings count toward participation only where noted in your agreement.

Do I own everything you build?

Yes. Website, brand files, accounts, and data transfer to you on final payment. You keep all of it, including if you claim a refund.

Are you lawyers or accountants?

No. We prepare and file registration documents using information you provide and choices you make, and we set up your accounting and payroll systems. We don't provide legal, tax, or accounting advice, and we don't select your entity type for you. For those, we'll refer you to professionals we trust.

What happens after six months?

You can continue in the room on a monthly membership at member pricing, move into one of the coaching tiers with direct access, or leave with everything we built. No automatic renewal, no cancellation hoops.

Why is it only $2,500?

Because the build is standardized. We've done it enough times to have templates, checklists, and a production process — so you get agency-quality infrastructure without paying for someone to reinvent it. The room is where we earn a long-term relationship with you.

Start with a conversation.

Tell us what you want to build. We'll tell you honestly whether we think we can help — and whether you qualify for the milestone guarantee.

Book your consultation

Guarantee terms. Both guarantees are described in full on this site and are set out in the client agreement you review before any payment is made. The Delivery Guarantee is limited to the amounts stated. The Milestone Guarantee is limited to the program fee paid and requires the participation conditions listed. Eligibility for the Milestone Guarantee is determined during the consultation.

No income representations. Formwork Consulting makes no representation, promise, or guarantee regarding earnings, revenue, or profit. Individual results depend on factors outside our control, including your market, your effort, your pricing, and general economic conditions.

Not professional advice. Formwork Consulting is not a law firm, accounting firm, or tax advisor. We do not provide legal, tax, accounting, bookkeeping, or investment advice, and we do not select your business entity type. Government filing fees and third-party subscriptions are your responsibility and are paid directly by you.

Third-party outcomes. We do not control and cannot guarantee Google Business Profile verification, payment processor approval, financing approval, or government filing timelines.
