FAQs
Where are you located?
Our Headquarters are located in beautiful Lexington, KY. We have satellite offices in San Francisco, CA and New York, NY. We are virtual, so we can work with clients from anywhere.
Does Empire Builders invest?
Not usually, through our large network of investors we are able to find the right investors and programs for our warriors. We do partner with our warriors and help in all aspects of their fund raising.
Do I have to relocate to attend your program?
No, we are virtual, and we can come to you or vice versa for meetings and closings. We establish long term relationships with our warriors, so it does not end in a few months’ period.
Do you charge fees to be in your program?
Yes, we do. The fees are determined for each warrior depending on the needs of our time and expertise. We also take some equity. This makes us true partners in this journey. We both have skin in the game. Our experience has proven that when clients (warriors) pay for services they give a better effort and show their commitment to success. The other major difference with Empire Builders is we use our team, partners, and 3rd party vendors to execute with you. We don’t charge just for advice, you get true services and tasks completed.
How long is the program?
We start with a 12-month plan. As I said we are true long-term partners. Because of the equity piece, we may be with you forever. Of course, either party can decide to end the relationship with proper notification.
When does the program start and is there a deadline to apply?
There is no deadline to apply and if selected, we start and customize your program for you. This is not a cookie cutter mass training program. This is a very specifically designed program for you and your current situation, what you need, and a strategic plan is constructed and executed in partnership.
