Your Growth Made Simple

Achieve your financial goals through accountability, coaching, and community.

Dear Entrepreneurs-

Growing a business is hard.

You must grow and deliver, sell and build– all while your resources are tight.

Because bootstrapped businesses have limited capital, they rely on the ability of the founders to drive growth.

Difficult, but not impossible.

In fact, our community is a treasure trove of 7-figure case studies. In the past decade, 100’s of DC companies have surpassed the million dollar mark.

The DC Accelerator distills those winning strategies and patterns so you can replicate them in your business. No need to re-invent the wheel.

Join us and we’ll help you find clarity, confidence, and consistency.

Together we’ll define clear goals, measurable plans, and efficient systems to put you on the path to growth.

Do you have a reliable source of new customers? Can you deliver on your current offers without daily involvement? Will your financial model scale?

We’ll contend with those challenges through 1:1 coaching, mentoring and professionally facilitated peer sessions designed to help you make progress faster.

If you’re interested in growing your business to 1 million and beyond, let’s talk about how we can help.

Sincerely,

Dan Andrews & Ian Schoen

on behalf of the DC Team

Grow faster to starting today.

Our process:

🎯 Clarify your goals

Day 1 we’ll meet for an introductory coaching session. We’ll dive deep into the current state of your business, clarify your 12-month goals, and learn what systems and practices you currently have in place. We’ll complete a detailed document that follows our simple “GPS” worksheet— goals, plans, systems.

🏢 build your plan

While long term goals are easy to set, typically the plans to achieve them lack clarity, focus, and testability. We will work with you to build a clear, focused, and data-informed plan that we will re-visit together every 90 days.

📈 1:1 Coaching

Our team will go on a deep-dive diagnostic into your business when you join DC Accelerator. We’ll look at financials, strategy, mindset, and market conditions. Our goal is to find and define clarity in your plan moving forward. We can get an enormous amount done on our first call together, and you’ll have full access to our coaching team and advisors for follow-up calls when things change or difficult moments arise in your business.

🤝 Join your peer advisory group

Starting month 2 of our program, you’ll begin meeting regularly with a hand-picked group of founders who are on a similar path. You’ll share the specifics of your plan, hold each other accountable, and discover potential blind spots. Sessions are facilitated by our team.

📞 Attend monthly mentor sessions

Our monthly sessions are designed to give you an hour away from the day-to-day to reflect on higher level concerns in your business. These sessions discuss key strategies and systems of our 7+ figure clients.

🚧 Remove weekly roadblocks

Our community will become a place where you can remove roadblocks quickly. Drop a text in our group chat and get immediate feedback to adjust your day to day execution of the vision.

From our members:

  • “Epic… We are on our way to developing a clearly defined operational rhythm where everyone in the team has impact in the wider organisation and the customers we serve."

    James McVeigh, Founder of RockRoofing

  • “We have been able to move faster and more decisively, and have killed off several distracting projects. For the first time established an operating rhythm that works for us and our remote team."

    Brandon King, Co-founder of Digidom Ventures

  • "Love that it's very operations focussed, unlike most masterminds etc. we've been part of. Less about throwing around big new ideas, and more about actual execution + streamlining how you're working to ready up for scale. After the second call, we'd already killed off 2 time-consuming projects that were ultimately distracting us, restructured the team and adjusted our focus to areas we're far more excited about"

    Mike Brown, Co-founder of Primal Video

  • "We joined as part of the first batch and have been very happy with the program. Clare and Ian have done a great job distilling the key points around scaling and business and delivering it in a way that's fun, informative, and actionable."

    Manyu Sabnis, Co-founder of Digidom Ventures

  • "It's only been 45 days, but wow, we've already made huge progress. For the first time in a while, I feel like I have a very clear vision of the next steps we need to take to hit our 3 year goals."

    Ryan Carrigan, Founder of MoveBuddha

  • I've struggled to find a group that can help me grow my business from where I am today. As they say "What got you here won't get you there. I needed to gain advice and support from other founders of similar size businesses on critical topics like recruiting, sales, client services, scaling wisely, and more. Homreun!"

    Anthony Fasano, Founder of the Engineering Management Institute

For founders

We’re seeking applicants who are willing to clarify a specific revenue and profit goal and who actively operate and grow their primary business.

DC Accelerator is designed to be an incredible value relative to other coaching, advisory, and community options at just $4900 per year. We’ve personally paid the equivalent of our annual fee for just one day of business coaching. We’re confident that for the right founders, we can return your investment many times over.
