What is the Grow Your Education Business Accelerator?

The accelerator is a group program led by Lily Jones, founder of Educator Forever.

By moving through the content together, you will be inspired and lifted up by your cohort's brilliance. As Jim Rohn said, "You're the average of the five people you spend the most time with." A key to success is being around others who understand and support your dreams. Your cohort will be your biggest cheerleaders! 

When you enroll in the accelerator, you will get:

  • Nine modules of content focused on business and marketing foundations. There are a ton of courses out there focused on business strategies, but this program is uniquely focused on the education industry. You'll receive videos, action plans, and activities that walk you through how to implement what you learned.
  • The opportunity to submit your work for review and feedback. The eyes of an editor on your website copy? You've got it! Want to get feedback on a sales email before you send it out? Done.
  • Three months of weekly small group calls, where you get to ask questions and get support to implement the week's content. In the group calls, you will build connections and get fired up to build your amazing business
  • Access to Lily and the cohort on Slack, for real-time feedback and support (Lily is available on Slack M-F)

"Lily is so easy to learn with and from! Since participating in the accelerator, I have become clear about the steps I need to take to really ramp up my edu business. I already had a lot of assets, but I was not maximizing them. Lily helped me understand just how much valuable content I already have, how to organize, package, & share it, and she provided a practical approach to getting it all going."

"Enrolling in Grow Your Education Business Accelerator was a great decision. My intention for joining this course was to learn how to scale my online tutoring business. Through the modules, I learned new ways to brand my business, grow my email list, and create products/services that I am passionate about. I also enjoyed the intimacy of the group calls with other educators. Having a safe space to bounce ideas off of each other and work through problems together was very helpful. I believe that my education business is on the right track and I look forward to seeing more growth!"
