QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

some questions. you may have

[will erstfeld help me?]

let's find out:are you a team of product or marketing managers, sales managers or strategists, cxo's or entrepeneurs?and are you willing to tackle the status quo to find new solutions to unsolved problems to find new growth?if the answer to these questions is yes, then YES, the erstfeld is built for a team just like you.but if you are still not sure, you can book a call so that we can find out together.

[do i have to work in a team?]

the erstfeld is built for teams, because the impact is much higher, when you innovate as a team.also, it is much more fun to create together. which is why we recommend that you come in a team of 5 to 15 persons.the price will be the same.---you are a consultant or coach yourself and want to join with your client OR learn new methods? send us a message, so that we can discuss.

[is erstfeld 100% online?]

yes and no.all the modules, in which we as coaches participate directly (e.g. the classrooms and the coaching zones) are online, live and in video conferences.in the creator spaces though, you decide where to create and build and test, while we will give you the tools and sparrings to support your innovation.

[do i have to pay right away?]

no, you don't have to pay now.but you can make reservation now with payments due 30 days before the erstfeld starts.we will send a transaction email with all the data you need plenty ahead of this 30 day deadline.but for now, we should talk and find out, what your organizations need and if the erstfeld is a good fit for you.

[can i cancel anytime?]

you can cancel your reservation until 30 days before the sprint starts.after that, please understand that we don't do refunds, because we are planning the sprint individually, with your needs in our minds.but if you for any reasons struggle to join to the erstfeld, you can always talk to us, so that we can try to find a solution.

[what does erstfeld mean?]

literally, the first field. which we translate as: being first in the field – as in: having the courage to move forward and innovate.and the name came to us when we travelled through switzerland. suddenly the train stopped at a tiny train station between huge snowy mountains.the engine was broken and we needed a new solution, so we discussed and looked around. the name of the station was: erstfeld.
