They are not at all presumptuous about the level of the build you are planning. Yes, their homes are phenomenal and perhaps beyond your budget (as is the case for me), but you will learn stuff regardless - the stuff you need to know for a successful build regardless of the budget.”

FAQ’s
-
Enrollment opens Tuesday, April 8th and closes on Thursday, April 24th at midnight CST!
-
The program kicks off April 25th, with our first call. If you join early, you’ll get access to Module 1 on April 17 so you can dive in! The program runs for 6 weeks with one module covered and one Q&A call per week!
-

Please note: you will only receive Mod 1 the first week. All other Modules will be released after our 7 day return policy expires on May 1st at midnight CST. This is to ensure our content is reserved for committed members only!
-
Module 1 is available upon course launch. All other modules are released after the 7-day return policy window closes on May 1st to ensure our content is reserved for committed members only!
Also, our program is designed to be taken in sequential order. It is tempting for members to just download and pick and choose what they feel will benefit them. However, we feel it is crucial to gain a basic understanding of each Module before you move on to the next.
Each Module builds upon the knowledge and skills acquired in the previous one. New concepts are introduced and explained with the assumption that members have a general grasp of the foundational concepts covered earlier. But don’t get stressed if you cannot keep up every week! Do not let that hold you back from jumping in our zoom calls or asking questions!
-
Each week we will have a live zoom covering your questions from that week’s module!
The first part of the zoom, Erin will address all the questions (some combined together b/c of duplicates!) from the submittal form sent earlier that week. If she is addressing one of your questions, we may have to call on you for clarity if you are present.
After Erin answers all the submitted questions, we then open the chat to live questions. When Erin is addressing your question, feel free to jump in!
We are all mindful of each other's time and work to make sure our questions are not solely project specific, but questions that are general in nature for everyone to benefit from. We offer to connect outside the zoom to answer questions about projects, and also offer personal consulting services for more complex situations!
-
All zooms are recorded and posted within the course! If you can’t make it to ask questions live, no problem, you can submit your questions via google forms before the zoom!
-
Yes! That is something we love about our program- the community aspect of it! You have the opportunity to connect with other homeowners and industry professionals!
In addition to connecting with each other in our virtual meetings, we offer a private social media group just for members to connect. We also have an optional membership directory where you can look up other homeowners and industry professionals who are open to being contacted via email and social media. Our members develop relationships with each other, all over the world
Homeowners have really loved getting to learn from each other's projects and experiences. They share resources as well!
Industry professionals connect with each other to share experiences, insights and business tools. We have had members meet outside of the course who are now working together on projects!
-
We truly believe that Homeowners and Industry Professionals are on the same team and will benefit greatly from what we share. There can be tension between these groups and by including both sides of the equation in each other’s learning, we can see much better from each other’s perspective! Not only is this good for strengthening everyone’s own personal team building skills, but it absolutely makes for a much smoother, productive, and far more efficient build overall!
Plus, not every homeowner has access to top-notch professional teams, so why not teach them how we do it? By sharing our industry knowledge and internal systems with them, they will have a far more successful build!
-
Erin will tell you, she has learned 99% of building luxury homes, from Industry Professionals, clients and trades. Do you like learning other people’s processes and systems? Do you want to connect with Erin to see how she runs her construction projects? Do you want to connect with other Industry Professionals in a space like this where we are all working to better our practices? If so, then this is for you! If not, this may be a better fit for one of your team members!
-
YES! Very much so. As you know, a lot can get tangled up between the “Core Team Members” (Architect, Interior Designer, GC, Homeowner) when building a home. We show you the unique systems, strategies, processes that we take when working with Interior Designers, that have led to incredibly successful builds! We also know a lot of you want to strengthen your construction savvy and we absolutely cover that throughout the entire course!
-
That depends on how big your team is! If it is just you and a partner, go for it! But, if you have more than 2 people on your team, please reach out to us and we can add another user to the account for a small fee.
-
As of now, we plan to offer Beyond the Blueprints twice a year. The format may change after this live launch, and may not include as much live interaction with Erin, but as of now, you will see her every week for this session!
-
Yes, we have 3 payment options: Full Pay, 2-Pay and 3-Pay!
-
We're confident you'll love the valuable insights and empowering knowledge you gain in this course! However, we understand that sometimes things don't go as planned. That's why we offer a 7-day money-back guarantee.
If within 7 days from course kick-off on April 24th, you decide the course isn't the right fit for you, simply reach out to our friendly support team.

A word from Erin…
Imagine the satisfaction of knowing you're in control of the process. Imagine the confidence of making informed decisions that align with YOUR goals and YOUR budget. And, imagine the joy of building a home that reflects your true vision!
If I had access to this knowledge when I first started out, my journey as a homeowner, builder, and business owner would have been significantly smoother and more successful earlier on.
This program is more than just information; it's an investment in one of your largest financial assets, your well-being, and your future. And, with our 7-day money-back guarantee, you can try our program risk-free!
If this feels right to you, enroll today and let's build together!
I created this program because I have witnessed firsthand the toll that a disorganized and stressful building experience can take on homeowners and builders alike. I've seen dreams turn into frustrations, budgets spiral out of control, and the joy of creation replaced by constant fear and anxiety.
It does not have to be this way!
Through years of trial and error, meticulous planning, and a deep commitment to clear communication, we developed a systematic approach that guarantees success for both homeowners and builders. Beyond the Blueprints is the culmination of that journey, a condensed roadmap to achieving your dream home with financial clarity, peace of mind, and a sense of accomplishment knowing you invested well in your future!
