Conflicts have yet to happen. If there is a question we will get your approval before agreeing to the attendees. - #### **What is the meeting format for the Lab** ##### Zoom meeting. We request that you be on camera - hair and make-up prep unnecessary! Once enrolled you will receive a calendar invitation that can be added to your electronic calendar. - #### **How can I be sure I'll get to my specific questions and challenges in a group setting** ##### Success in the group setting is dependent on the work you do outside of the group, your willingness to share your work product so everyone can benefit, and how ambitiously you take advantage of my availability via the Slack channel. ##### Participants congeal around shared issues and solutions, and raise the value of the experience by sharing cross-industry knowledge and innovations. The value of the Lab is founded on the knowledge, guidance, and examples I provide each week. I closely moderate every session so everyone has a chance to work through their plan at the pace they require. - #### **What if I need attention on an urgent matter outside of Lab work sessions?** ##### Ilene is available by Slack and commits to a 24-hour turnaround on responses and replies. My time is flexible. Your goals can't wait, and we get that. - #### **Do I have to watch all the videos, or do all the 'homework' in the Lab portal?** ##### No. Based on your business challenges, we'll direct you to the module most relevant at a given point in time over the year. While the Lab is constructed in a logical sequence, we know everyone confronts different marketing challenges at different points in the development of their business or planning processes. - #### **How much required work is necessary each week?** ##### Consumption of Lab materials are not required, there is no mandatory homework except the onboarding questionnaire. You'll get out of the Lab exactly what you put into it. While we want to help you be accountable to your goals, this is really up to you. We recognize that you also have a 'day job.' - #### **Can I enroll members of my team to the Lab?** ##### Yes. CEOs have enrolled their marketing director, marketing manager, or other support team members to the Lab for outside counsel on in-house marketing programs. - #### **Can I bring multiple members of my team to the Lab?** ##### Yes, you may bring up to two members to the group sessions. - #### **What happens if I miss a Lab session during the year?** ##### Each Lab session is recorded and available to you in the Lab portal. Typically, recordings are posted the next day and are noted for key topics discussed for future reference. You'll be able to listen to a recording, or reach out for my input whether or not you've attended a Lab session at any time. - #### **Are there any flexible payment arrangements for the Lab?** ##### Your credit card or ACH bank transfer is charged monthly. At times there will be a discount for early sign up or pay-up-front arrangements. Please discuss with Ilene.

I found myself falling back on: I'm a small company, I don't know if I'm going to have the budget to do the things I'm learning here. But then I thought: If I don't do it, I'll never grow.”* **CEO***** B2B Financial Services Firm***** ** ![Profile-Photo](https://info.whitespacemarketinggroup.com/hubfs/images/testimonial-quote.png) > *“ The Lab provided an open collaborative space that really allows you to look at your business from a different perspective. > You're not just working with one marketing strategist. You're working with other people who are going through the exact same thing that you are with their business. ”* **Founder***** Professional Services Startup***** ** ![Profile-Photo](https://info.whitespacemarketinggroup.com/hubfs/images/testimonial-quote.png) > *“ There are things you just can't deliver to your CEO, even when you're tasked with making marketing work.
