Making It Happen is a self-paced video masterclass on six implementation skills, priced at $297 with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Here is what is in it, who it suits, who should skip it, and how to use it in 30 days.

Most owners do not have a strategy problem. They have a doing problem: the plan exists, the whiteboard is full, and the month still disappears into urgent work. Making It Happen is the Simple-Growth program built for that gap. It is a self-paced video masterclass, priced at $297 (one payment, instant access), with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Last updated 10 November 2026.

Disclosure. Simple-Growth sells this program. Everything about its contents and price below comes from the live sales page, read on 9 November 2026. Results vary and are not guaranteed.

What it covers

The sales page lists six areas: beating procrastination, productivity systems, prioritizing, implementing strategy, building accountability, and getting things done. It includes pre-made templates, a key points summary, real-world examples and Kevin's tips. It is written for ambitious small-business owners in the United States and New Zealand.

The context: tools are not the constraint

Business owners now have more tools than ever. The US Census Bureau's Business Trends and Outlook Survey found that 19.8% of US firms reported using AI as of May 3, 2026, and that less than 20% of firms with four or fewer employees reported using it. The point is not about AI. It is that having access to something and building it into a weekly routine are different things. Implementation is a skill, and it can be learned.
