Frequently Asked
Questions
Where is this happening?
Great question! We’ve chosen to host the inaugural Build.Grow.Learn conference in picturesque Greenville, SC. It’s easily accessible, it’s truly a beautiful location, and it gives all of our guests plenty to do in the evenings!
The event itself will be held at the AC Hotel by Marriott in the heart of downtown Greenville.
If I’m traveling from out of town, what airport should I fly into?
We like that you’re thinking logistics already!
We highly recommend flying into GSP International Airport (2000 GSP Drive, Suite 1, Greer, South Carolina 79651) – approximately 15-20 minutes from the hotel!

Who is this event designed for?
This event was built by three entrepreneurs, for entrepreneurs. We took everything we have loved about attending events for decades, and threw away everything we hated about it.
This event is built for the entrepreneur who is truly ready to build their business, grow themselves, and learn to scale!
I don’t have time to step away from my business—what makes this worth it?
We get it—your time is valuable. That’s why every part of this conference is designed to give you tangible tools, insights, and connections you can immediately apply in your business. It’s not just inspiration—it’s implementation. You’ll leave with more clarity, better systems, and real momentum.
I’ve been to conferences that felt like a waste of time or just a sales pitch.
So have we—and we built this conference to be the exact opposite. No fluff. No filler. No up-selling from the stage. Every session is hand-picked to solve real business challenges, led by speakers who are doers, not just talkers.
Networking usually feels awkward—will I actually connect with people?
You’re not alone! That’s why we’ve rethought the typical “walk-around-and-hand-out-cards” model. Our networking sessions are structured, purposeful, and designed to spark real conversation. Even meals are built around intentional connection—not small talk.
Is this just another motivational event with no real takeaways?
Motivation is great—but you’ll get much more than that. Expect practical strategies, tools you can implement right away, and access to speakers with deep expertise. You’ll walk away with clarity on what to do next, not just feel good for a weekend.
Will this be relevant for my business?
If you’re a small business owner, this was built for you. We curated every session around common pain points entrepreneurs face—from marketing and hiring to mindset and growth strategy. Whether you're just starting out or scaling, there’s something here for you.
I don’t like lecture-style learning—will I stay engaged?
You won’t be sitting still and zoning out. Most sessions are speaker-led breakouts and hands-on workshops that encourage interaction and discussion. It’s about learning by doing and connecting, not just listening passively.
I’m not sure it’s worth the investment.
We understand—it’s an investment of both time and money. But what’s the cost of staying stuck? One new connection, one fresh idea, or one shift in your strategy could change the entire trajectory of your business. And we’re confident you’ll leave with more value than you came with.
The Locale
Inspiration Starts with Environment
You’re not just here to grow your business — you’re here to recharge, connect, and immerse yourself in an environment that sparks creativity.
From vibrant local art to a thriving food scene and curated shops, this destination is as intentional as the event itself.
