Elevate Your Chief Architect & Design Business Skills

What is "Immersion" training?
Sounds like a dip in a pool. Rest assured; you won't get wet unless you decide to hop into the whirlpool. The bottom line is you'll be immersed in learning about Chief Architect and how to make more money in your design business from when you arrive to when you leave.

Where is this training event located?
We'll meet at the fabulous event house called the Black Stallion 599 Laughing Gull Ct, Corolla, NC 27927 (Google Map). This house is a 24-bedroom, luxurious event center where you'll be immersed in a grand lifestyle for the week.

What's up with the room that has 4-bunk beds?
Consider this our mini dorm room. This house happens to have one room with 4-double size bunk beds. If you're okay sharing a room and bath with others, this room allows you to attend the entire event and save some money. Who registers for this room first will determine if the room will be available for only guys or gals. Unless you're part of the same family, we won't offer this as a co-ed option. $2,650 Each. Register Here (Call Dan 952-451-9911 for group discounts)

What Happens After I Register For This Event?
We will direct you to a members area at ChiefExperts.com, where you will get Directions, Webinar Sign Up, a List of Attendees, a Discussion forum, meal menus, and more. You will also have the opportunity to schedule a 30-minute discovery meeting with Dan Baumann to discuss this event and get answers to any questions you may have. 

What about Travel Arrangements and Car Rental?
You handle your own transportation. There will be plenty of parking at the house. The nearest international airport is Norfolk International Airport. About a 2-hour drive. (Note: We will do our best to coordinate ride-sharing)

Can I (we) attend the classes and stay somewhere else?
Yes. If you are staying somewhere else, you are welcome to join us from Sunday to Sunday for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Even on the days, we're not training. You'll get seven days of F&B plus five full days of training. Plus, you'll have a chance to stay and network and dive deep into ways to use Chief Architect you never thought possible. (Note: There are only so many seats available for those not staying at the house). Go here to Register for only $2,175

Can I attend and stay at the house for only part of the week?
The rates are for an entire week, and there are no price breaks for staying less than a week.

Do I need to be a member of ChiefExperts.com to attend any of these events?
No. Membership is not required.

Should I wait to Register?
Registrations get accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. When the rooms are gone, they are gone! To get added to a waiting list or be informed of our next event, please email [email protected] or phone at 952-451-9911

Can I stay at the house but not attend the training classes?
Pricing for this event is per room and person. A second person not attending classes may stay in a room with a full-paying guest for an additional F&B fee of $350.  A second person attending all classes may stay in a room with a full-paying guest for an additional F&B and Training fee of $1,275. Contact Dan for special pricing if you have more than two people attending.

Do I have to bring my computer?
Yes, bring your laptop or desktop! There will be plenty of power, cords, and internet.

Does the house have internet?
Yes, the house has high-speed fiber-optic internet.

Do I need to be on the latest version of Chief Architect?
To avoid confusion, we insist that you have the latest version of Chief Architect Premier on your computer. We will be using X15 if it's released before this Summit.

What topics will get discussed in the training classes?
We have provided general information for this event above. Some curricula will be changed, expanded, and developed based on an interview process by Dan with those attending. Rest assured, there will be many things discussed, and you will come away knowing how to use Chief Architect to its full potential.

What are the "Business Hot Seats"
During this event, everyone will be allowed to discuss their goals and any issues they have in their business. As a group, we'll offer suggestions, advice, and strategies to help advance goals and solve issues. The hot seats are an optional evening event, and topics like Sales, Marketing, Employees, Customer Issues, and more are all open for discussion with those that elect to participate.

Does staying together really make that much difference?
Attendees have said that they were able to cement the ideas they learned while sitting around their computers after class reviewing things with someone else staying there. Staying together is a fantastic way to learn and make life-long friends. Just imagine what you'll discover from others while sipping tea or adult beverages, enjoying a refreshing whirlpool, or playing a game of left-right-center! Priceless!

Are Food and Beverages Included?
We'll provide you with a full breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily. Linda, Doug, Avis, Mary, Jerry, and Patti will ensure that you are well-fed and taken care of and that all your needs get met. We'll supply juice, soda, water, milk, wine, and beer, but you're on your own for hard liquor. If you are on a special diet, please let us know, and we will do our best to accommodate you. The crew may even have a few surprises for you!

What about Noise Levels?
If you require a quiet area to work or relax, you will be fine because the bedrooms are far away from the areas where we'll be hanging out, and the house is large enough to find a quiet space to sit and relax or work. This event is for you if you like to brainstorm, share ideas and laugh in a lively group setting.

What is the Cancellation Policy?
If you need to cancel, you'll receive a full refund within 30 days of the event. After 30 days, "IF" we can sell your space to someone else, we'll give you a full refund. There will be no refunds for cancellations after February 3, 2023, although you will be allowed to use the non-refundable amount on future online or live training products for up to one year.

Will we be doing anything outside of this event?
We will be staying on the outer banks during the off-season, and we have no formal plans for excursions outside the Black Stallion. If you want to venture out, you are welcome to explore independently. Patti is planning on organizing some outings. More on that later.

What about Covid or Flu?
Although we highly recommend it, we will not require proof of vaccination. Chief Experts will abide by the CDC's latest pandemic travel and events guidelines.

Why not just rent a conference room and do a training class?
We've discovered that when we are together for an extended period, we learn and retain more, share ideas, and become friends. The ROI on these events is tremendous. Plus, in this event, you get the best possible hosts with Linda, Doug, Avis, Mary, Jerry, and Patti. The saying "Come for the food and stay for the training" continues to be true.

Will there be any games?
One of Linda's requirements at these events is for us to play some simple yet entertaining games. You can bet there will be some "Left-Right-Center" and other games. While participating in the games is not required, you'll enjoy them once you try them. It's always a hoot!

Will the pool be available?
We're sad that this is the off-season, and the temperatures do not allow us to heat the pool. However, the jacuzzi will be hot and ready to go!

What's up with the Zoom meetings?
We'll have a least one Zoom meeting before the event to cover any questions you may have. We'll also have three meetings after the event to get clarity on anything you missed during the Summit.
