The Business Launch Program

Done-for-you business setup — all ten pieces, in 15 business days.

You choose what the business is. We build everything it needs to open its doors, then hand you the keys. $2,500.

Financing available · Delivery guarantee below · Colorado Springs, serving clients nationwide

What you get

Ten deliverables. Each one done, not explained.

Below is everything included, and — just as important — everything that isn't. We'd rather you know the edges of the work before you buy than discover them in week two.

01EIN registration

We prepare and file IRS Form SS-4 using the information you supply, and deliver your EIN confirmation letter. If the filing is rejected for a correctable error, we refile once at no charge.

Not included: tax advice of any kind, tax classification elections such as S-corp, ITIN or foreign-owner filings. You are the responsible party on the application.

02State & local entity registration

Formation documents prepared and filed in one state, for the entity type you select. Registered agent coordination. A written list of the licenses and permits that appear to apply to your business and jurisdiction, plus up to two local registrations filed on your behalf.

Not included: choosing your entity type or advising on it — that's your decision, made in writing, and we file what you choose. Also excluded: operating agreements, bylaws, resolutions, multi-state qualification, professional or specialty licensing, annual reports, and government filing fees, which you pay directly at cost.

03Google Business Profile

Profile created and claimed. Name, address, phone, hours, service area, categories, description, services list and your photos. Submitted for verification, with up to three follow-up attempts if Google stalls.

Not included: any guarantee of verification or its timing — Google controls both and it can take up to three weeks. Also excluded: ongoing posting, review management, and reinstatement of suspended profiles.

04Professional website

Up to ten pages, mobile responsive, with a contact form that delivers to your inbox and creates a CRM record. Basic on-page SEO, domain connection and SSL, and integration with the booking, payment and CRM systems we build here. Two rounds of revisions.

Not included: custom design or animation, e-commerce catalogs, member portals, calculators, photography, and copywriting beyond light editing of what you supply. Pages 11–25 are available at $75 each.

05Logo & brand identity

Two initial concepts, two rounds of revisions on the one you choose. Final files in every format you'll need — primary, horizontal and stacked marks, PNG, SVG and PDF, full-colour, single-colour and reversed. Plus a colour palette, typography selection and a one-page usage guide.

Not included: unlimited concepts or revisions, custom illustration, trademark search or clearance, and packaging, signage or apparel design. You are responsible for confirming your name and mark are available to use.

06Payment processing

A complete application prepared and submitted, business profile and bank connection configured, checkout or payment links connected to your site and booking system, and one live test transaction end to end.

Not included: approval. The processor underwrites the application, not us, and some business types are declined. If the first declines we submit one alternative. Also excluded: rate negotiation, chargeback management and PCI certification.

07Online booking

Account and business configuration, up to five service types with durations and pricing, availability rules, buffers and lead times, confirmation and reminder templates, calendar sync, website embed, payment connection, and one test booking.

Not included: multi-staff or multi-location routing, custom intake forms beyond the platform standard, class or resource scheduling, and ongoing schedule management.

08CRM

One sales pipeline with up to six stages built around how you actually sell. Standard contact fields, lead capture wired to your website forms, up to three automations, one email template, import of up to 500 existing contacts, and a recorded training walkthrough.

Not included: custom objects or reporting dashboards, complex multi-branch automation, lead scoring, data cleaning or de-duplication of your existing list, and ongoing administration.

09Payroll system

Payroll platform account created, company profile and EIN connected, state tax accounts linked, pay schedule set, up to five employees or contractors configured using your classifications, direct deposit enabled, and a recorded walkthrough of running a cycle.

Not included: running your payroll, worker classification advice — that determination is yours — registration for state withholding or unemployment accounts, payroll tax filing or remittance, and benefits or workers' comp administration.

10QuickBooks

QuickBooks Online account and company profile, a chart of accounts from an industry-appropriate template, up to three bank or card feeds connected, payment processor sync, a branded invoice template, sales tax configuration where applicable, up to 20 products or services, and a recorded walkthrough.

Not included: bookkeeping, transaction categorisation, reconciliation, cleanup of historical data, financial statements, and tax preparation or advice of any kind. We set up the software. Engage a CPA for the rest.

The schedule

How the fifteen days actually run.

Not a vague "a few weeks." A dated sequence you can hold us to.

Day 1Kickoff
We meet and write your plan. Intake completed live on the call, not emailed to you afterwards. Your milestone plan drafted and signed. Materials list sent the same day. Your fifteen days start here — not when you paid.
Day 2Filings out
EIN filed. Entity registration filed. Google Business Profile submitted immediately, because verification is the longest pole and it's outside anyone's control. Brand brief goes to production.
Days 3–5Brand
Two logo concepts produced. You choose one. Revisions applied and the full file set delivered. Website template deployed with your brand applied.
Days 6–7Site
Your website populated with your content, domain connected, SSL live.
Days 8–10Systems
Payment processor submitted. Booking system configured. CRM built and wired to your forms. Payroll and QuickBooks configured.
Day 11Integration
Everything tested end to end. A real test transaction. A real test booking. A real test lead through the CRM.
Days 12–14QA & revisions
Full quality pass, fix list applied, preview sent to you, one consolidated round of revisions.
Day 15Handoff
Live walkthrough of all ten systems. Credentials transferred to you. Recorded training delivered. You own everything.

What pauses the clock. If we've asked you for materials and haven't received them within 14 days, the timeline pauses and resumes — it doesn't restart — when they arrive. Google verification, processor approval and government filing turnaround also sit outside the window, because they belong to third parties.

Investment

$2,500. All ten, all in.

$2,500

The complete build + six months of Premium membership in the room

Financing available. Approved applicants can spread it over 12 or 24 months. Applying takes a few minutes and doesn't commit you to anything.

Government filing fees, domain registration and third-party software subscriptions are paid by you directly, at cost. Our fee covers the work. Nothing is marked up.

Our side of it

Two guarantees, both with their conditions printed.

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 and you keep everything finished to that point.

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.
  • IRS processing time.
  • Any period where we're waiting on materials from you. The clock pauses; it doesn't reset.
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 live classes for at least 60 cumulative minutes in each of 26 weeks. Any classes you choose, morning or evening — every weekday class runs at 10am and 6pm Mountain, so there are ten chances a week, and time across sessions adds up toward the same 60 minutes. Attendance is tracked automatically and shown in your dashboard.
  • Complete the action items in your signed plan. Documented as you go.
  • 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.

Guarantee two isn't automatic. We extend it only where the consultation says your plan is realistically achievable. If we don't think it is, we'll say so — you can still buy the build without it, or walk away. Read the full refund policy →

Questions

Before you book.

What do I actually have to do?

Show up to the kickoff call, choose your entity type, and send us your content and photos within fourteen days. That's genuinely it. Everything else is on us.

What if my industry needs special licensing?

We'll identify what appears to apply and file up to two local registrations. Professional, occupational, contractor and specialty licensing sits outside the package — those often require exams or bonding we can't complete for you.

Can I use my own software instead of yours?

Yes, at $150 an hour on an estimate we agree first. The $2,500 price assumes our standard platforms — that's what lets us move this fast. Non-standard tools mean learning a new system on your clock.

What if the payment processor declines me?

We submit one alternative at no extra cost. Beyond that it's out of scope. Tell us upfront if a processor has closed or declined an account of yours before — hiding it guarantees a decline later, and it changes which processor we approach first.

Do I own everything?

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

Can you guarantee I'll make money?

No, and be careful with anyone who does. We guarantee our delivery on a deadline and the plan we build with you. What happens after depends on your market, your pricing and your effort.

Are you a law firm or an accounting firm?

Neither. We prepare and file documents from the information and choices you give us, and we configure your accounting and payroll software. We don't give legal, tax or accounting advice, we don't pick your entity type, and we don't do your books. We'll refer you to people who do.

What happens after the build?

You're in the room at the Premium tier for six months at no extra charge — all five days, ten live sessions a week, morning or evening. After that you can stay at Premium, move up to VIP, drop to Standard at $9, or leave with everything we built.

Start with a conversation.

Tell us what you want to build. We'll assess whether it's viable, tell you honestly if it isn't, and let you know 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.
