The Accelerator is a 100-day online learning program for high-aspiring henna artists who want to build a profitable business doing what they love.

During the length of our guided 100 days together, participants receive daily instruction, motivation, and strategy in the form of videos, audio files, PDFs, group coaching calls, and specific assignments to guide them down the fast track of building their henna business.

• Where is the accelerator held?

The Accelerator program is held entirely online. There is no in-person component to this course, and it requires zero travel. You can access the program curriculum from your desktop or mobile device from anywhere in the world.

• How much time will I need to invest to complete the program?

While some weeks may require more or less time, we suggest allocating approximately 10 hours per week to dedicate to coursework in order to stay on schedule with the live class progression.

• What happens if I fall behind?

  No need to worry! Part of learning to run a successful and sustainable business is developing the skills to create boundaries around your goals, to exhibit unwavering dedication to achieving your dreams, and to craft your business’ operations in a way that allow for work-life harmony. This program was designed to help you build such habits, and you’ll be supported along the way.

After the first 100 days of the program are completed, you will have an additional 20 days of ongoing support to catch up on missing tasks, make changes, revisit or review content that you’d like to improve upon, or otherwise complete.

• What can I expect to learn inside of the program?

The Accelerator was designed to help henna artists to build meaningful, profitable businesses.

Upon successful completion participants can expect to have identified and connected with their market, developed a high-converting and beautifully branded website with accompanying social accounts, mastered a content marketing plan, introduced systems and tools to boost productivity and better manage their business, and more.

In short, by implementing the tried and true strategies detailed in the program, participants can expect to see rapid, tangible growth. Click here to view the full program curriculum.

• What is not included in the course curriculum?

While there is the opportunity for personalized attention during group coaching calls, the program does not include one-on-one business coaching with Chelsea.

As the program serves artists internationally, please note that the program curriculum does not include information regarding the legal or financial aspects of operating a henna business - to include legal entities, tax preparation, trademark registration, and similar details. If you wish to receive instruction on these themes, please contact your attorney or financial advisor.

The Accelerator is intended for henna artists who are ready to serve the public at a professional level. To that end, the course curriculum does not include any content relative to henna paste preparation, design composition, or other technical themes.

For our comprehensive beginner henna class, please see Mixology & Basic Design, and for help with design composition, consider joining Chelsea inside of The Design Lab.

• I thrive with built-in accountability. WIll THere be a community component to the course?

Absolutely. Participants of the Accelerator program receive access to the Inside Circle private community for both accountability and support.

Additionally, participants should understand that every daily task and builds upon the next - so keeping one’s self accountable to completing the coursework on time means that the support of the community is also kept in realtime.

Because we aim for a 90%+ overall completion rate, participant progress is regularly reviewed throughout the course of our 100 days together.

• WHat is the Accelerator’s inside circle, and who has access to it?

The Inside Circle is an exclusive online community where current program participants and alumni can can bounce ideas, connect with one another, and lean in for support and accountability in a private setting.

Accelerator participants have free access to the private community through the duration of the program - from their enrollment through our final graduation and launch party. Once the program is complete, you will have the option to remain inside of the community with paid membership dues.

The Perfect Fit for The Program

• Who was the accelerator created to help?

The Accelerator was created with the high-achieving, goals-driven, and action-taking henna artist who is ready to chase relentlessly after their dreams.

Ideal candidates for the program include those who wish to take their henna side-hustle up a notch, turn their part-time henna work into their full-time occupation, or rebrand and better position their existing henna business for the next level of success.

Let’s be very clear: this program requires hard work, dedication, and tenacity. While every step along the roadmap to your next milestone is well charted, you must be courageous and willing to move yourself forward.

• Who is not right for this program?

The Accelerator is not intended for those artists who are not yet proficient with the basics of henna - such as paste preparation and basic design composition.

The Accelerator is not right for you if you’re looking to market to your program colleagues. Those who are found to be pitching their products or services to other program participants may be removed from the Inside Circle.

Artists who wish to find a secret “get rich quick” hack or golden ticket to a seven-figure henna business need not enroll. While the Accelerator is based entirely upon the exact methods used by its founder to create a five-star, full-time henna business, you need be aware that there is no secret to success. Participants should be prepared to work hard in their business both during and beyond our time spent together.

Similarly, this program is not meant for those who do not wish to be pushed, stretched, or challenged. The Accelerator takes participants over the course of a rigorous 100 days, and while Chelsea makes a wonderful cheerleader for you, she’s also a no-nonsense coach. You need to be well invested in your own success - every difficulty encountered during the course of this program is with its own reward.

If you consider yourself to be an advanced henna professional with a solid mastery of content creation, content marketing, email marketing, generation of paid and free traffic, web development, networking, split testing, and similar themes, then the Accelerator is not a good fit for you. Please consider applying for Hennapreneur PRO, our coaching program for henna artists with brick-and-mortar locations, or investing in private coaching with Chelsea instead for more in depth and personalized strategy.

• Is the Accelerator right for me if I don’t yet know how to prepare fresh henna paste?

No. Participants of the Accelerator program need be proficient with henna preparation, familiar with henna safety, and comfortable with basic henna design composition.

For information on our comprehensive henna course for beginners, please visit Mixology & Basic Design. To improve your design composition skills, consider joining Chelsea inside of The Design Lab.

• Is the program only intended for residents of the usa?

No. Currently, Hennapreneur provides instruction for hundreds of henna artists spanning across six continents. You need not be a resident of the USA to participate in the program.

• How technically savvy Do I need to be to participate in the accelerator?

If you can listen and follow directions, you will be fine inside of the Accelerator. Modules which include technical tasks - such as web design, content creation, and email marketing - also include video walk throughs of every task so that you can see exactly what steps to take for each assignment. If you’ve got the drive to be successful, we won’t allow tech to stand in your way.

The cost of tuition for the Accelerator program is $10,000 when paid in full.

The Accelerator is the only online program of its kind - designed by a seasoned professional henna artist for henna artists exclusively.

• Will I receive personalized feedback from chelsea during the program?

Likely so! While your tuition to the Accelerator does not include private one-on-one coaching, Chelsea is active in the program comments, frequents the Inside Circle, and hosts regular group coaching calls to provide you with as much feedback as possible.

• What if I am unhappy with the program?

  Our desire is for you to invest in your business in the ways that will best support your goals, and we're dedicated to providing the highest quality educational resources available. However, due to the fact that the proprietary digital files become immediately available to you upon registration, there is a no refund policy for The Accelerator. Please read the description carefully to determine if this program is a good fit for you prior to enrolling.

• Does successful completion of this program include official accreditation of any kind?

No. While the content presented inside of our curriculum is quite comparable to what you might expect from an MBA program, the Accelerator is unaccredited. If you require official course credits, this program is not for you.

• I have another question that isn’t included here. Could you help me?

Certainly! Your confidence in the decision to invest in our program is important to us. Send your concerns to support@hennapreneur.com, and we will respond within 48 business hours, M-F from 9a-5p EST.
