Frequently Asked Questions

Who is Level Up Week for?

There are three separate Level Up Weeks designed for three different stages of practice growth: starting & growing a solo practice, starting a group practice, and scaling a group practice. If you are at that stage or getting curious about the next step, there’s a Level Up Week that’s perfect for everyone.

Accelerator Week is an exclusive fast-track experience reserved for attendees who join the Practice of the Practice membership community during Level Up Week.
While Level Up Week gives you the blueprint, Accelerator Week gives you immediate, hands-on implementation support. New members get access to daily live 1-hour cohort sessions with Joe (11:00 AM – 12:00 PM EST) during each Accelerator Week to dive straight in, get direct feedback, and hit the ground running.
 
(Note: Accelerator Week is an optional bonus for members and is not part of the free webinar series.)

Each of the three Level Up Week programs correspond to the three tracks inside our membership community called The Practice Academy. The track depends where you are in growing a private practice. Learn more about The Practice Academy here.

Level Up Week has two components. The first is a series of five or six live webinars to help illustrate the basics of getting started with the next level of private practice. They are meant to lay the foundation for the second component: What we call the Accelerator Week where you’ll begin a full dive into the next level of practice with expert guidance, content, and a community of peers (this is a paid add-on). Component one can be viewed standalone.

Yes, all webinars are hosted by Joe Sanok initially held live, with time for questions. After the live date and time, replay recordings will be available.

Absolutely! All live sessions will be recorded. All you need to do is sign up for the program and we will email you the recordings in the event you cannot attend live. If you have missed the live date and time, recordings will be available for a limited time.

Feel free to email our community manager sara@practiceofthepractice.com with any questions.
