"They have been such a blessing in my life, they have been such a blessing for my business, they have helped me in so many ways.

I really can't even begin to thank them enough for what they've done for me."

Exclusive to Iowa Entrepreneurs

Official Launch = August 19th, 2024

Isolated and Underequipped: Stats don't lie 

Being an entrepreneur in Iowa is tough.

You’re out there alone. No one to bounce ideas off. Software? You’re guessing what’s worth the cash. Clients and customers? Good luck finding them in a cornfield. It’s not your fault. Iowa’s not Silicon Valley. Resources are thin. Communities are scattered. But that doesn’t mean we have to continue letting it be this way.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How much is a membership?

An Early Access Membership is $1200/year. Prices may increase later, so joining now secures the current rate. To sign up: click Apply Now → complete the short form → if approved automatically, you’ll receive instant access to our online community and be prompted to set up an onboarding meeting.

2. Why should I become a member of this?

EOI is built for Iowa entrepreneurs, creatives, freelancers, and owners who want to grow faster. You get tools, resources, and genuine connections that move your business forward—think of it like equipping a one-person army with the gear they need to win. (Not convinced yet? See member wins and value we’ve already delivered.)

3. When is the next event?

We update the site before each event, but the best way to stay current is to subscribe to the weekly EOI newsletter. We run 12 monthly events across Iowa—digital networking hours, workshops (coming soon), and more—so you’ll always have something on the calendar as we continue to scale.

4. Do I need to be a member to attend events?

Early Access Members attend all digital and in-person events free as VIPs. Non-members generally cannot attend (exceptions for specific partnerships or invitations). This protects the integrity of the group, respects paying members, and keeps the room focused on those serious about growth.

5. What if I’m not a traditional entrepreneur?

You’re welcome here. We support owners, aspiring founders, creatives, freelancers, and company reps. Whether you’re exploring an idea or scaling, EOI helps you sharpen your plan and expand your network.

6. What services do you provide?

EOI delivers a stack of value: Events, Online Community, and member benefits found inside "THE VAULT." Your success is tied to ours—when you win, we win.

7. I’m near Des Moines & can’t make every month event in the state—still worth it?

Yes. We rotate events across Iowa, and even if you miss a month you still get The Hive community, curated intros, spotlight opportunities, and member perks. Many members get enough value from connections and visibility alone.
