Bootcamp questions
A friend told me about your bootcamp. How do I get started?
Check out this page for more information about bootcamp.
If you want a sneak peek at the bootcamp, check out the Week 0 warm up course for free.
How long is Bootcamp?
Bootcamp is structured as 5 weeks (Week 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4).
What’s included in Bootcamp?
Bootcamp includes:
- Lessons (video)
- Discussion forum accountability (open for one month)
- Weekly mini-mastermind Zoom call
What do I have to do each week?
Each week you’ll:
- Watch the lessons
- Complete the homework
- Share progress in the forum
- Join the weekly call (or watch recordings if your plan includes them)
Is Bootcamp “always open”?
The video lessons are always available if you have a PRO membership. The full Bootcamp experience (forum + weekly mini-mastermind + final submission process) runs at specific times. Join the email newsletter to find out about the next bootcamp
What if I fall behind?
Bootcamp is built for implementation.
If you are part of the PRO bootcamp plan, homework is required. If you don’t do the homework during Week 1 or 2, you may lose access to the forum and calls (so the space stays focused on action-takers).
Why would anyone want to pay for a VIP or 1-on-1 bootcamp
Sometimes, people with bigger stores have been burned before in collaborations where someone was “inspired” by their products.
So, the VIP bootcamp and the 1-on-1 bootcamp are for people who are a little bit more cautious about what they say where.
What do I get in a VIP bootcamp that’s not in the PRO bootcamp
The VIP bootcamp is for 2 to 5 people. So, it’s more personal and less risk.
Each week, you get a loom video response for homework feedback from me. I’ll look at your before and after product changes and give tips I see about possible changes.
The video is posted in our small group discussion forum so other people in the VIP bootcamp can see and learn from it as well.
What do I get in a 1-on-1 bootcamp that’s not in the VIP bootcamp
The 1-on-1 bootcamp is completely private via email, Google Docs and zoom.
We can look at your data together and analyze which products to compare and update from week to week.
You also get the loom video response homework feedback from me. This video is only seen by you. In addition to looking at product changes (like in the VIP bootcamp level), I’ll also look at your data and wonder about outliers and possible directions to “follow the money.”
My mastermind wants to do a VIP bootcamp. When do we meet?
Great! If you bring your mastermind with you, you can decide the dates we meet.
There are four modules.
- In the PRO bootcamp, we do each module over 4 weeks on a set schedule.
- If your mastermind wants a different schedule, we could meet every other week or once a month.
We just have to find a date that works for everyone.
I don’t have a mastermind, but I still want to do a small group VIP bootcamp.
Great! I can match you up with other solo riders.
After you purchase the VIP bootcamp, I’ll reach out via email. I’ll need to find out:
- Your store URL
- Your availability
- Who are your deal-breakers?
(i.e. I don’t want to be in a group with another Kindergarten store; I don’t want to work with a store that has made under $100,000 lifetime earnings.)
If we’re not able to find a match, I can give you a full refund.
PRO questions
What’s the difference between PRO Membership and PRO Tools?
PRO Membership includes community forum, support, the tools, and all of the bootcamps.
- Not all applicants are accepted; There is a vetting process.
- You must have at least 50 products, 50 followers, 50 reviews in order to be considered.
- Your store URL will be displayed on your PRO community forum profile.
PRO Tools includes the tools and all of the bootcamps.
- It’s more private because you don’t have to disclose your store URL
- You don’t get access to the PRO community forum (which means you also don’t get access to the exclusive videos, coworking space, Saturday chats, and points to earn Mike Minutes for one-on-one consults.)
Can I do Bootcamp without PRO?
Yes. Bootcamp includes time-limited tool access to complete the homework (self serve data tool and the PRO keyword tool.)
If you want year-round tools, you’ll want PRO.
Are the bootcamps included in PRO?
Yes, if you have the PRO membership or PRO tools, you can join any PRO bootcamp. (You do NOT have to pay extra for the bootcamps.)
However, if you don’t complete your week 1 / 2 homework before the start of the third week, you will lose access to the discussion form and mini-mastermind. Don’t worry. You can try again at the next bootcamp!
Do the tools work while I’m on TPT?
The Chrome extension (beta testing) is designed to work as you browse/search on TPT.
Pricing questions
Do you have monthly pricing?
No. We bill annually for two strategic reasons:
- It provides money which we can then use to develop and improve tools
- It seems to attract more serious TPT sellers. This is an investment in your business. By charging a larger single amount up front, it stings a little. You really have to want in.
The PRO bootcamp is designed to let you “TRY” some of the tools for one month.
- At the end of the month, if you complete all 4 weeks of homework, credit will be provided if you want to upgrade to an annual PRO membership
To make things NO RISK, I offer a 14 day money back refund policy. If you sign up and it’s not what you need, then you can request a full refund if it’s within 14 days of purchase.
Why is the PRO Membership and PRO Tools plan the same price?
This is so you can switch between the PRO membership and PRO tools plan.
Some people start with the PRO tools plan because they want to keep their store URL private. But then, they transfer to a PRO membership plan to get access to the community.
Only one person has switched from the PRO membership to the PRO tools plan. At the very beginning, we didn’t require you to list your store URL in the PRO community forum. When we implemented that change, one person wanted to remain private, so they switched over to the PRO tools plan.
Why so expensive? (or cheap?)
Do you have a refund policy?
Yes, read this page.
I just heard about Mike from SEOTpreneur. Who is this guy?
That’s me! I’m Mike! Read this page.
