Every time I open the doors to the Rocket Accelerator, I hear the same questions.
They’re usually from teachers who are super keen to join, but for one reason or another feel nervous to invest in themselves.
I totally get it. No matter what bold marketing promises people make, there is a certain element of risk involved in joining a business coaching program.
That’s why I require people to apply to join the Rocket Accelerator.
I want to make sure everyone who signs up is at the right stage of business to benefit fully from the program. And while you are largely responsible for your own results, it’s my duty to make sure you are at a point where those results are possible for you to achieve.
I can’t say with 100% certainty if the Rocket Accelerator is right for you without meeting you. But I can help you make that decision based on a few factors. Ready?
Where are you currently at in your business?
The Rocket Accelerator is built to help you scale your business with a profitable group language program.
This is not a beginner course. It’s not designed to help you set up a business from scratch. Rather, it helps you build on work you have already done.
That means you NEED to have some students (and a bit of a social media presence) already. For instance, you may already teach several 1:1 classes, or maybe you’ve even experimented with a group program before.
Granted, you probably aren’t sitting on heaps of cash, but you aren’t scrambling to make ends meet, either.
Where do you want to take your business?
I honestly believe that ANY language teacher or coach who wants to grow a madly profitable business can do it. And the Rocket Accelerator will help.
It gives you an insane amount of resources, information, advice, support and mentorship to guide you on your journey. BUT! It’s not a magic pill. You need to put in the work to see results.
That’s why one big thing I look for in my Rocketers is ambition.
You don’t need to know exactly what you want to build before you start (for example, Elisabetta didn’t). But you at least need to have a fire in your belly for MORE. You bring the engine, I’ll provide the map.
What about your motivations?
So, we’ve established that you have ambition. Now, I want you to take things one step further and consider:
- WHY you want to achieve your goals; and
- WHY you are considering joining the Rocket Accelerator.
If the answer is because you feel like you have to, you are not ready for this course.
Let me explain. There are a few business courses in the language space that push teachers to invest from a place of fear. This is NOT one of those.
You should be joining the Rocket Accelerator because you are excited to create more opportunities. Not because you are desperate to escape your reality.
I am not here to ‘save’ you. I am here to guide you.
Now let’s talk about money
Even though most Rocketers (like Olivia) begin making a return on their investment within the first month, it’s still not a decision you should make lightly. So, it’s good you’re thinking about it.
But it’s important to recognise the difference between genuinely not being able to afford the course and feeling a little scared about seeing the monthly payments go out.
Many teachers have money blocks that stop them from fulfilling their potential. It’s a product of our industry. But the only way you will escape this vicious cycle is by trusting that you CAN (and deserve) to make more. And like anything, that requires investment.
BUT! Let me be clear: the investment should not put you in a financially vulnerable position. If the monthly payments would mean you have to sacrifice the essentials, you should not join.
However, if you consistently have money left over every month after paying your bills and yourself, then consider what is really holding you back. Is it a money issue? Or is it a fear of whether or not you will achieve your goals?
So, is the Rocket Accelerator right for you?
Without speaking to you, I cannot say for sure whether you should join the Rocket Accelerator or not.
But, I can say that if you have a language business, tons of ambition and a desire to create a better life for yourself doing what you love, the Rocket Accelerator will help.
Since launching the course in 2021, over 100 language teachers and coaches have done exactly that. Many of them had the same thoughts and questions as you, but the moment they took the leap, they didn’t look back.
