FAQs about the training
Making a commitment to invest in a training program often comes with a few questions – below, I’ve answered the most commonly asked ones. If you have a question that’s not answered already, let me know and I’ll be sure to reply.
What's the price of the training?
The regular price of the Kit Email Mastery: Cohort Training will be $750 (3 x payments of $250), however, for the first group, starting Jan 14th 2025, you can join for just $450 (3 x payments of $150 – for a limited time only).
The first 10 people to join this cohort will also qualify for several bonuses (combined bonuses value of $950);
- Kit Email Mastery: Digital Course (Pro version) – $350
- 1 month’s email mentoring with me – $350
- My Kit subscriber onboarding automation, including all sequences – $100
Total bonus value: $800
💯🔒I also offer a 100% money-back guarantee – if you join the training and discover it’s not giving you the value you expected, just let me know within 14 days of it starting, and I’ll offboard you and process a refund (minus any payment processing fees incurred).
What's the format of the training?
The training is delivered in a group format using Zoom sessions.
There are two Zoom sessions per week; one where I deliver training and the other where I hold a Q&A/problem-solving session.
- Training sessions are on Tuesdays at 3pm UK (7am PCT • 10am EST)
- Q&A/problem-solving sessions are on Thursdays at 3pm UK (7am PCT • 10am EST)
Is the training right for me?
The training is designed for solo biz owners who want to grow their income (and their biz) using email marketing. The content assumes no prior knowledge of email marketing or Kit, the email marketing platform used in the training.
Most of the content consists of basic and intermediate content, with some advanced strategies and techniques included for anyone wanting to expand their email marketing system further down the line.
What if I'm not tech-savvy, will I struggle with it?
No, the content has been created assuming you have no tech skills – there is no need to code anything or do anything ‘techy’. If you can use a laptop and email, you’re good to go!
Will this training work if I don't use Kit as my email marketing platform?
Many of the strategies and techniques I teach in the training are applicable regardless of platform. However, it’s very Kit-focused, so if you plan on using an email marketing platform other than Kit, I recommend you consider alternative programs.
What if I buy it and discover it's not right for me?
I never want anyone to have buyer’s remorse, so if you find that’s you – let me know within 14 days of the program start date, and I’ll process a refund for you.
I know this policy leaves me exposed to some unscrupulous people out there, but I believe most people are ethical and honest, so I like to give assurance and peace of mind to all my attendees.
How long does the training last?
The training is delivered over 6 weeks, with two 60-min sessions per week (1 x training + 1 x Q&A/problem-solving).
Do I need a paid subscription to Kit to join the training?
No, you don’t need a premium plan – you can start on Kit’s ‘Newsletter’ plan which gives you up to 10,000 subscribers plus one automation and one email sequence.
If you decide later that you want to introduce more features or increase your limits, you can easily upgrade to a premium plan, starting at $9/month.
Is there any support I can get during the training?
Yes, if you have any questions or hit any challenges during your training, you can always reach out to me with your questions.
There are also regular Q&A/problem-solving sessions to make sure nobody gets stuck or feels left behind.
Will this training be helpful if I'm moving from another email marketing platform to Kit?
Absolutely, you can import your existing subscriber list into Kit and get started on configuring it to match your business needs.
If you have a complex email marketing system on another platform, you may consider subscribing to a premium plan on Kit and the team there will assist with your platform move.
Will the training teach me how to sell using email marketing?
Yes, selling via email is core to effective email marketing. With Kit’s ‘Commerce’ platform, you can create and sell your products and services, both from within your emails and stand-alone product pages.
Kit’s Commerce platform connects directly to your bank account (via Stripe), so your funds land in your bank account without the need for any other input.
Do I need to have an email list to benefit from this training?
No, you don’t need to have an email list – you’ll learn how to start and grow one as part of the training. It can be tempting to compare ourselves to others and their 1,000s of subscribers, but everyone starts with zero subscribers!
The 3 x $150 split-payment option is time-limited.
