COMMON QUESTIONS
What are the requirements?
Minimum 3 years of consulting, coaching, or professional services experience. A genuine commitment to helping service businesses scale. Alignment with the MACHINE values of evidence-based, systematic transformation.
How long does certification take?
The core certification program is an intensive multi-week training. After certification, you have ongoing access to tools, community, and updates.
Do I need to leave my current practice?
No. Most practitioners add MACHINE to their existing consulting or coaching practice. It enhances what you already do.
What if there is already a practitioner in my area?
MACHINE is not territory-based. Multiple practitioners can serve the same market. The demand far exceeds supply.
How do client referrals work?
When businesses complete the Founder Trap Test or request a diagnostic through the MACHINE website, we match them with certified practitioners based on location, industry, and availability.
Can I deliver all three tiers?
You start certified for You Do It diagnostics. After demonstrating competency, you can unlock Do It With You and We Do It For You delivery.
