Questions

About Guided.

How much time will it take?

About seven hours face to face across six sessions, and 15 to 20 hours all up with homework.

Do I need ads experience?

No. If you already have some, we customise the program around what you know.

How do I book?

Start with the fit quiz: seven quick questions about your business and your ads. If Guided suits you, book a free 30-minute chat with Josh from your result. You can also explore free for 7 days and book your 1-1 from inside the portal.

What if I fall behind or it doesn't work?

Your campaigns go live with your trainer in week 2, in your own ad account. In the solo weeks you have email support, with answers within a day. If you fall behind, the 8 weeks run over a 10-week window, so there's room to catch up.

Who will my trainer be?

You don't choose a trainer. Josh leads the program, and your sessions are delivered by Kelvin and Teddi, our senior trainers.

Can we pause for holidays?

Yes. The 8 weeks run over a 10-week window, and we often let people pause for holidays, Christmas or a busy patch.

Our setup is a bit unusual.

Restricted industry, a broken or restricted ad account, a CRM or booking system to connect: we build the training around your setup.

Will we just get junk leads?

We train you on the ads structure and landing pages we use for our own clients. They're built to bring good traffic and qualified enquiries, and to track which ones turn into sales.

How much should we spend on ads?

During Guided we recommend an ad budget of $1,000 a month or more, paid straight to Meta or Google from your own account. Not sure what it should bring in? Use the calculator.
