Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about the Business Owners Exchange.
- Who is the Business Owners Exchange for?
- BOE is for service-based business owners aged 50 and over. Whether you're a consultant, advisor, contractor, designer, coach, or any other service professional — if you want to be discovered and connect with like-minded owners, this network is for you.
- How does The Board work?
- The Board is our public directory. When you join, you create a premium profile tile that includes your name, location, service category, income range, and a brief description of what you do. Visitors can filter by category, state, and income to find professionals who match their needs.
- What's the difference between Standard, Featured, and Founder?
- Standard gets you listed on The Board and access to the member directory. Featured adds a visible badge, priority placement, and video embeds on your profile. Founder includes everything in Featured plus permanent top placement, referral revenue share, and exclusive founder events.
- Is there a contract or long-term commitment?
- No. All plans are month-to-month. You can cancel anytime from your dashboard. We also offer a 7-day money-back guarantee on all plans.
- How quickly will my listing go live?
- Most members are live on The Board within 5 minutes. Fill out your profile, hit publish, and your tile appears immediately.
- Can I update my profile after publishing?
- Absolutely. You can edit your profile details, bio, goals, social links, and videos at any time from your dashboard.
- How does the referral program work?
- Founder members receive a unique referral link. When someone joins through your link, you earn 10% of their subscription payment for as long as they remain a member.
- Is my income information visible to everyone?
- Your income bucket (range) is displayed on your tile to help visitors gauge business size. You can choose not to display this if you prefer.
- How do I contact another member?
- Logged-in members can reach out to other members through the private member directory. We're building direct messaging — for now, contact info and websites are shared on profiles.
- What if I need help or have an issue?
- Reach out anytime via our contact page. We typically respond within 24 hours on business days.
