What is the 5 Day Challenge, who is it for, and when does it run?
The 5 Day Challenge (also called the One Client Away challenge) is a live, hands-on training where you build and launch a white label AI agency on Votel from the ground up. Mike Brown, Votel's founder, presents it. Over the five days you learn the platform, set up your white label and get it online, pick a profitable niche, build a website and an AI agent for that niche, create your offer and pricing, learn how to find, close and market to clients, and learn how to run Facebook ads.
It is for existing agencies and for people who are not in business yet, because it includes training on how to find and secure clients.
Schedule: the challenge runs Monday to Friday at 3 PM Eastern, and a new challenge starts every Monday. When you sign up you join that week's group, and if you sign up before Monday, you start that Monday. Complete your registration before 3 PM Eastern on the first day so you are in for the whole week. A signup you start but do not finish does not register you. There is only one session time each day, with no alternate time to choose from.
How a session runs: sessions are held on Votel's own meeting platform, with the same link for all five days. The training part is about one hour. After that we answer questions and keep going until every question is answered, which often takes another two or three hours. You can leave after the training hour or stay to ask questions.
What comes with it: everyone in the challenge has a Votel challenge account, so you can build everything that is taught during the week. As soon as you sign up you get access to the software and to the Votel school community, so you can start before your group begins. You also get 200 free AI credits, and every session is recorded, so you get the recordings, the transcripts and a short homework guide for each day. The challenge has a guarantee: if you do not get a client, we refund your entry for the challenge.
To join, sign up through the challenge page at challenge.votel.ai. We test different price points for the same challenge, and it is the same challenge whatever price you paid.
The challenge is separate from a founder onboarding session, but you learn much of the same material in both, and you can attend both.
The aim is to get your agency online quickly. The core setup (tell the AI assistant to build your website, create a SaaS plan, set your pricing, connect Stripe, upload your logo for your white label and connect your domain) can be done in about an hour. Only some of the days are about using the platform. The rest covers your offer, getting clients and advertising.
