What Users & Experts Are Saying Of Scaling Up Methodology

Scott Farquhar
Co-Founder & CEO, Atlassian

Scaling up a significant business requires precisely the kind of discipline and focus detailed in Verne’s practical and ‘how-to’ driven book.

Sam Pessin
Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer at Remote Year

The way that the Scaling Up process has been framed and the way that we've also taken it internally to Remote Year and sort of made it our own, has really enabled us to help the whole organization through and through. It’s helped us to just be more aware of what's going on and engaged in that decision-making process.

Dave Rogenmoser
Co-founder and CEO of Proof

Without Scaling Up, we never would have been able to design Proof from day one in such an impactful way. We never would've been able to take that vision from those three days and begin to implement it practically. And we never would have gotten to that 50K MRR goal. And that goal was probably what got us into Y Combinator, which I think just took us to a much different direction.

Sanjeev Mohanty
CEO, Benetton India

Verne’s tools and techniques have been key to scaling up Benetton to become the #1 international fashion brand in India. They work!

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the application process work?

We prioritize: your skills and professional achievements, but also how you can contribute to the group — so that we all can learn from each other. We’ll review your application and get in touch with you within 1 week. In case of additional questions, we’ll schedule a call with you. If you feel ready, apply here.

Can we apply as a team? Is there a limit of seats per business?

This course is for CEOs, founders, leaders and top executives. That said, we’ve seen the most spectacular results when the entire Leadership Team signed up. There’s no limit of seats per business.
 
If that’s what you want to do, one application per team is enough. We’ll then schedule a call to figure out who to take aboard. No worries if someone doesn’t qualify, it doesn’t block you as a business. We just have to make sure that our network is of the highest value.  

Can I implement the scaling up processes by myself?

Together with your leadership team you can read Verne’s book “Scaling Up”. You can then discuss which frameworks and strategies would be the most important at the moment and start implementing them.
 
The truth is though — this approach takes longer and is extremely challenging. You’ll be missing professional feedback, peer motivation, accountability and external perspective (we all know how it is hard sometimes to think “outside of the box”). Within the Master Course you’ll be getting not only highly-qualified guidance and support, but also extremely dynamic and valuable network of entrepreneurs from all over the world.

What can I do if I miss the live sessions with the coach or author of the class?

All our live sessions with authors and coaches are recorded and available on your learning platform. You will find them following the same steps mentioned in the reminder you receive a few days before the live classes.
 
I’ll be traveling/ busy during a lot of the live sessions and I’m worried that I’ll fall behind.
 
If you’re travelling, you can always dial in from wherever you are, we don’t mind. You don’t have to be suited up in the office to participate in the live sessions. If you know that, 100% sure, you’re going to miss the class, you can still submit your question/ challenge/ feedback and we’ll discuss it during the workshop or mastermind. As mentioned above, you’ll get the recordings of all the live sessions.

What if I don’t like this course? What is your refund policy?

We offer an iron clad triple risk-free guarantee. If you aren’t blown away by the level of service, informational content, clarity, and support throughout the entire course... we will refund 100% up to 60 days after purchase, or until the 3rd Live Session if no session has happened within the first 60 days of your enrolment.
