Four options, four different jobs. A plain guide to who EOS, Dent's Key Person of Influence, EO New Zealand and one-to-one coaching each suit, built only from what each publishes.
Short answer: Know Your Future is a self-paced online masterclass for a one-time US$497 payment. It is for owners who are busy and growing, or stuck, without a clear picture of where the business is going. If you already have direction and need follow-through, look at Making It Happen ($297). If you want sales ideas this month, look at Quick Wins ($97).
A disclosure first: Simple-Growth publishes this guide and sells Know Your Future, so read it with that in mind. Everything about the program below comes from its live sales page, opened on 10 November 2026.
The sales page describes self-paced video training, a workbook to complete as you go, pre-made templates, a key points summary, real-world examples from big brands and small businesses, and Kevin D'Ambros-Smith's practical tips. It lists six modules:
The page gives no total running time or estimated hours, so we cannot say how long it takes. Payment is $497 once, with a 30-day money-back guarantee: the page says that if it is not useful, you can ask for a refund. The page does not describe the refund process, so ask on the free call if that matters to you.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce Small Business Index for Q3 2026 (published 30 July 2026) reports that 54% of small business owners say inflation is their biggest challenge right now. Much of that is outside an owner's control. What you do control is where you point the business. That is our judgment, not a finding from the index. The index does not measure planning, and the page we read did not give fieldwork dates or sample size.
How much does Know Your Future cost? US$497 as a single payment, with a 30-day money-back guarantee per the sales page.
How long does it take? The page does not say. It is self-paced.
Is it the same as coaching? No. It is recorded training with a workbook and templates. Coaching adds a person who tests your thinking and holds you to account.
Can I talk to someone before buying? Yes. Kevin offers a free 30-minute call, and there is no obligation.
Results vary and depend on the work you put in; nothing here is a guarantee.
