Together we will create a vision for your business.
Our in-person option is an unforgettable experience. I invite you to an exclusive opportunity to focus entirely on you and your new business. Meet me in a beautiful location (we do the planning) and sit with me as I teach you everything you need to know about the business of teaching manners to children. I share marketing strategies that have helped Manners To Go™ become the #1 resource in the world of etiquette. We dine together and laugh (I am all about beautiful experiences and having fun).
The training is unforgettable – some have said it is life-changing and much more than they ever expected. You choose the city where you want this training, and we agree on the date. Our trainings take place in locations such as The Ritz-Carlton, The Grand Bohemian, and luxurious dining clubs across the US.
The above is included in the fee. You are responsible for your travel and overnight (if necessary) expenses.
Yes, I want to become certified by Manners To Go™ and launch my business helping children excel.
How the 2-Day In-Person Program Works
Step 1
Once you register and book your training dates, you will receive instant access to the complete Manners To Go™ resource library. You can download all of the teaching and student materials onto your own computer so you can start reading and learning right away. You may want to review the materials before you arrive for your training.
Step 2
During our two days together, you will be trained to deliver the Manners To Go™ curriculum to any audience. We will adapt the training to your specific needs and teach you how to customize the lessons based on group size, age level, the organization and meeting venue, and the time frame. We will also focus on marketing strategies you can use to grow your business effectively.
Step 3
Once you complete your two-day training, you will be officially certified and licensed to teach the program! You can use the Manners To Go™ branding in your marketing materials and receive a badge for your website stating that the American Academy of Etiquette and Manners To Go™, an international brand, accredits you to teach manners to children.
Step 4
You have the right to use all the Manners To Go™ materials and branding for 3 years without paying any fees or royalties, and you will have complete access to any new and/or updated teaching and marketing resources that are added to the resource library during this time. After the three-year period, you must pay $750 for refresher training to continue using the Manners to Go™ materials and branding.
Imagine how rewarding it is to work with such delightful children!
