Enrollment Agreement
Last updated: November 2026
This Enrollment Agreement is between ESRD Global Strategics LLC, a Virginia limited liability company ("ESRD," "we," "us"), and the person enrolling in ESRD's self-help business setup consulting program, the DIY option ("you"). By paying the enrollment fee you accept this Agreement.
1. What the Course Is
The course teaches you to set up a business completely, the way ESRD was set up: entity formation, business identity, federal and state registrations, certifications, the documents buyers ask for, the operating system that runs the business, and the search agents that find opportunities. It is delivered as a six-month cohort with every module open from the first day, downloadable templates, and twelve live group sessions.
2. What the Course Is Not
It is not opportunity assistance. ESRD does not help you find, evaluate, or pursue any specific contract, write or review a proposal, or respond to an RFI, RFQ, RFP, or sources sought notice. Module 6 teaches you to write your own triage rules and run your own search agents; that is setup, and the decisions they produce are yours.
It is not legal, tax, accounting, or financial advice. ESRD is not a law firm, an accounting firm, or a registered agent. Entity choice, tax elections, TIN questions, trust and ownership questions, and insurance go to your own attorney, CPA, or broker.
It is not a guarantee of any registration, certification, approval, award, or revenue. Agencies decide applications on their own standards and timelines.
It is not a manual-process course. See Section 6.
3. Fee, Payment, and Taxes
The enrollment fee is $2,500 for the six-month cohort, paid in full at checkout. ESRD does not offer installments. If the checkout provider offers a pay-over-time option, that is an arrangement between you and that provider; ESRD receives the full fee at enrollment and the provider's terms govern your payments to it.
After the cohort ends you may extend access at $99 per month, billed month to month; cancel any time before the next monthly charge. Extension months in which access was provided are not refunded.
Government, state, and local fees are yours and are paid by you directly to the agency. Fees may apply; check your state and local agencies. Your AI assistant subscription (Section 6) is yours. Checkout runs on Stripe; you may pay by card or by bank debit (ACH). Any sales tax ESRD is required to collect is shown at checkout and added to the fee.
4. Cohort, Access, and Live Sessions
Enrollment is open only during the registration window for each cohort. For the December 2026 cohort, registration opens November 8, 2026 and closes December 3, 2026. It does not reopen until the next cohort. The first cohort runs December 4, 2026 to June 4, 2027; the second runs July 2, 2027 to January 2, 2028.
Access runs from the cohort start date for six months. Every module, lesson, download, and video is available from the first day. Session replays and the cohort community are available for the same period. Templates you download are yours to keep after access ends.
There are twelve live group sessions, every other Friday at 7:00 PM Eastern, 90 minutes each; the dated schedule is posted in the course. Sessions are recorded and replays are posted in the course. Attendance is not required. Sessions are group sessions, not one-on-one consulting; ESRD does not review your individual filings outside a session unless you book separate consulting. There is no cap on cohort size. Session dates may move for holidays or illness; a moved session is rescheduled within the same month or added to the following month.
5. Your Responsibilities
You create and control every account, and you personally handle every login, signature, payment, and submission to any agency, bank, or portal. ESRD never logs in as you.
You never share your Social Security number, bank credentials, or passwords with ESRD, in the course community, or in a live session. The course method never stores an SSN in any AI tool.
You verify every agency requirement against the agency's own current page before you file. The course teaches ESRD's experience and the agency standards as published at the time of recording; rules change. You keep your own records, backups, and obligations calendar as taught in Module 5.
6. AI-Assisted Method (Required)
The course teaches and requires an AI-assisted method. You will set up and run an AI assistant subscription that supports scheduled tasks, and you will use it for the operating system and the search agents in Module 6. ESRD does not provide the subscription and does not control what the assistant does on your account. If you want a manual process, this course is not for you; free alternatives exist at your APEX Accelerator, SBA district office, SCORE, and VBOC.
7. No Refunds
The entire course, every template, and every video are available to you from the first day of the cohort. Because you receive full access at enrollment, the enrollment fee is not refundable, in whole or in part, for any reason, including non-attendance at live sessions or withdrawal from the cohort. Extension payments are not refundable for months in which access was provided.
Concerns about the course are addressed by correction, a replacement session, or added material at no charge. If ESRD cancels a cohort before it starts, the fee is returned to the original payment method within 10 business days.
8. Materials and Intellectual Property
Lessons, videos, templates, and session recordings are the property of ESRD Global Strategics LLC and are licensed to you for your own business. You may use and adapt the templates for any business you own. You may not resell, share, post, or teach from the materials, and you may not share your course login. Recordings of live sessions may include your voice and questions; by attending you consent to that recording being available to the cohort. If you do not want to be recorded, ask your questions in writing in the community.
9. Community Conduct
The cohort community is for setup questions and peer support. No solicitation, no sharing of other members' information, no posting of anyone's personal records, and no legal, tax, or financial advice offered to other members. ESRD may remove posts or members who break these rules without refund.
10. Confidentiality and Privacy
Information you share in the course is handled under ESRD's Privacy Policy. ESRD does not collect or store card or bank account numbers; payment is processed by Stripe under its own policy. Other cohort members can see what you post in the community and say in a session; do not post anything you would not share publicly.
11. No Reliance and Limitation of Liability
Course content is based on ESRD's own setup record and on agency rules as published when the lesson was recorded. It is provided without warranty of completeness. To the fullest extent permitted by law, ESRD is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, for any agency decision, or for any loss arising from your reliance on course content. ESRD's total liability under this Agreement is limited to the enrollment fee you paid.
12. Changes, Termination, and Governing Law
ESRD may update lessons and templates during the cohort and will tell the cohort what changed. ESRD may end your access for breach of Sections 8 or 9. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Questions: hello (at) esrdglobal (dot) com, or the course contact page.
How This Course Was Made and How You Will Work
ESRD Global Strategics was set up by one person working with an AI assistant. Every registration, certification, document, and system you will build in this course was first built that way, and the record of what worked and what went wrong is where the lessons come from.
The course itself was made the same way. Research, drafting, and production of the lessons, templates, and video scripts were performed with AI assistance under the direction, editing, and review of the founder, who is responsible for every claim and its sourcing. Nothing in the course is a filled ESRD record; every example is structure only, with names, numbers, and personal details removed.
You will work the same way. The method has five standing rules. No assumptions: the assistant does not guess an agency rule; it finds the agency's own page and shows it to you, and anything it cannot verify is marked unverified. You hold every account: logins, signatures, payments, and submissions are yours; the assistant prepares and checks, you file. Nothing sensitive goes in: your Social Security number, bank credentials, and passwords are never typed into an AI tool. Ask before producing: the assistant proposes a document and waits for your yes, one task per chat, one screen at a time in a walkthrough. Everything goes in the tracker: every decision is logged with who made it and when, so a new chat, a new day, or a new assistant picks up exactly where the last one left off.
Agencies, banks, and portals do not care that you used AI, and nothing in the method misrepresents who filed. The person on every form is you. The assistant's job is to make sure what you file is complete, in the right order, and verified against the source.
