Frequently asked questions

Will I get value if I come alone?

You can come alone, and will get great value. Other people have made that choice too. What they have said afterwards is they wish they had brought their team, so they could have implemented the changes more effectively. Delegates that attend on their own, repeat the course, bringing their team.

Can I bring my team

We actively encourage you to bring as many of your team as possible because implementation is easier, and your results will be better, better. No additional charges for team members, one practice, one price.

Do you have a guarantee?

Yes, we have a double your investment guarantee. Terms and conditions apply. Everyone has doubled their investment as a minimum and not claimed on the guarantee.

How do I fit this around my surgery and family commitments?
