    • What school leaders and consultants need to understand about the economy today

    • How changing fiscal priorities may impact federal spending overall and education funding in particular

    • Access to Josh’s Lead Generation Engine Blueprint—a step-by-step guide to consistent, sustainable sales in the education space

    Perfect for consultants and founders ready to scale their business without losing their sanity.
