Your success in this program depends largely on how you use the resources we offer. While SEE provides many tools to help your business grow, they only work if you actively engage with them. The entrepreneurs who see the biggest changes in their businesses are those who consistently show up and participate. This doesn't mean you need to attend every single event - but it does mean setting clear goals and maintaining regular contact with our community, whether through coaching sessions, Circle meetings, or workshops.
We want to be clear: dramatic business growth over five months isn't guaranteed. It requires effort on your part to take what you learn and apply it to your specific situation. We provide the support system and resources to speed up your growth, but you need to do the work of implementing these tools in your business. Think of it like a gym membership - having access to great equipment helps, but you only see results if you show up and put in the effort.
As we mentioned, we’ve noticed that participants tend to get out what they put in. So, we want you to reach out to us more than you might think you should. Our team is available by phone or email, and there's no limit to how much you can ask for support. While we may not always have the capacity to help with everything, we encourage you to ask whenever you need guidance. This is especially important when unexpected challenges come up - we've seen time and time again that early communication with our team can dramatically improve how these situations turn out.
Sometimes entrepreneurs get busy or stressed and stop participating in our programs. While we understand this happens, we've noticed a pattern: the most successful participants reach out to us during these tough times instead of disappearing. Even if we can't solve your problems directly, we often know about options or approaches you might not have considered. If you need to step away from programming for a while, just let us know. We worry about our entrepreneurs when they vanish, and a quick message helps us understand what's going on.
We've designed this program as a menu of options for supporting both you and your business. You understand your needs best, so we trust you to participate in the activities that bring you value and skip those that don't. When life gets busy and you need to focus on a project or personal matters for a few weeks, that works too. We believe you'll make the right choices about how to use our resources.
We do ask one important thing: if you plan to step away from the community for a while, please let us know. This helps us plan better and potentially offer your spot to another entrepreneur who could benefit from our programs. We have a limited number of spaces available, and we want to make sure these opportunities reach people who can actively engage with them. Simply sending us a quick message about your situation helps us support everyone better.
We provide valuable support through funding, workshops, and coaching, but our program runs deeper than these practical offerings. We look for participants who want to actively engage in our community and connect with other entrepreneurs. The financial and educational benefits come alongside your involvement in our supportive network, not separate from it.
Our community thrives because members both give and receive support. When you join SEE, you'll get tangible help for your business while also becoming part of a group that lifts each other up. Your participation in our social spaces and willingness to support others makes all our other offerings possible. The more you engage with the community, the more value you'll find in our practical support services. We're creating something special here - a space where entrepreneurs support each other while growing successful businesses.
