75% of deposit fee, if cancelled in less than ten (10) days;

50% of deposit fee, if cancelled in 31 to 60 days before;

POWER PARTNERS ADDENDUM

Terms & Conditions

BOWA International’s (BOWA’s) objective is to provide the participant(s) with the structure, tools, and accountability for success. The BOWA POWER PARTNERS (e.g. BPP) Program is a comprehensive program designed to propel participants into their best performance in business and in their personal lives. Because of the intensity of the program and its cumulative nature, is unlikely any client will benefit from the program by just attending a few sessions.

BPP (PP aka as Participants, Members) Relationship

Participants understand that the BPP Program is a 12-month consecutive membership program that is an interactive relationship designed to help the participant create an actionable strategy to achieve his/her desired results in his/her business or personal growth. The participant also acknowledges that BOWA or other participants are not professional advisors or counselors, and that any risks of implementing the outcomes from the sessions are solely at the discretion of the Participant him/herself.

BPP Program is not a substitute for any form of medically prescribed or specified services (including psychotherapy, counseling, psychology services, therapy financial advising or counseling, or analysis). If the participant(s) desires additional or alternative treatment or therapy, it is recommended that the participant seek the professional help he/she desires. The participant also agrees to hold the BOWA representatives and other participants free of all liability and responsibility for any actions or results.

COMMITMENT

BPP services work best when a client commits to the partner and the service over a time period. It is very difficult to realize the full benefits of professional BPP with a single interaction or session. Given time, the Participants have the opportunity to develop relationships that can greatly enhance approaches to business and personal relationships.

What you can expect from your BPP Sessions: 

• New Weekly Topics

• Group BPP Sessions/Training

• Support from BOWA staff for any program issues and questions relating to sessions.

• Mindset Strategies and Implementation Techniques

• Time Management and Organizational Techniques

• A Safe and Confidential Environment for Support and Celebration

What BPP Participants should do: 

Be prepared and on time for your BPP sessions

• All homework and assignments completed by agreed upon due dates

• Open and honest communication with assigned partners

• Keep all personal information confidential if needed

• Be completely present during our time together by turning off mobile phones, emails and other distractions during sessions.

Session Day/Time:

Your BPP sessions for a specific day and time. Members agree not to record any part of the session without all participants acknowledgement.

BPP Breakout Rooms:

If assigned, you will interact with your partner in a breakout room. Please keep session to a maximum of (5) minutes. This is a voluntary session.

Confidentiality: 

Conversations between you and your BPP are confidential. BPP Partners do not share information about their clients unless specifically directed to do so by the client or if BOWA has been subpoenaed by a court of law. BPP may, however, reference what clients have learned or are experiencing without identifying the client(s) by name.

Membership – Member agrees that they are entering a contract for membership for minimum of 12 consecutive months. Member agrees to pay the membership fees for each month of the membership in advance on the day of the month member originally signs up on. Member agrees to allow BOWA to automatically charge their method of payment on file for all membership fees. Member agrees that this agreement shall remain valid even if the member relocates or is otherwise inconvenienced by attendance at BOWA.

Initial Term – Member agrees that the initial term of this contract is the first partial month of membership plus twelve (12) additional renewal months of membership. Member agrees to pay the then prevailing rate of membership for the entire term.

Sign-up Fees: Any new membership may incur a sign-up fee of up to $199. A returning member who does not hold a currently valid membership is considered a new member. A Member can change from one type of memberships to another without new sign-up fees as long as the memberships succeed one another. Sign up fees are non-refundable.

Right of Rescission – Member has (1) session from the first day of the first session in the membership to cancel this Agreement without penalty or a $99 cancellation fee will apply. Any membership fees paid by the member before their notice of cancellation shall be retained by BOWA and shall not be refunded.

Ending Your PP Relationship:

If you elect to end your BPP relationship, you may cancel this agreement any time after the first six months. If client cancels before (6) months a $99 cancellation fee will be due. All cancellations may take up to 2 weeks to process. Cancellations must be in writing and faxed to (305) 572-7038.

You must provide BOWA written notice via electronic mail or a letter mailed first-class of your intent to cancel, no less than ten (10) business days prior to the due date of your next billing payment. Failure to provide timely notice will result in a charge for the full amount of your next billing payment. The cancellation will take affect the subsequent month. For example, if your billing payment is due the first day of the month, you must provide written notice no later than ten (10) business days prior to that date. If you fail to do so, you will be billed on the first day of the month for the full amount, and your contract will be cancelled as of the date of the subsequent billing payment due date.

If, at the time of receipt of your cancellation notice, you have outstanding payments owed to BOWA, these payments must be made in full in order for the Membership Agreement to be considered cancelled. In the event that you fail to pay outstanding amounts owed, your membership will be considered suspended, the Membership Agreement will not be cancelled, and BOWA reserves the right to pursue additional avenues or means to receive monies owed.

This Membership Agreement may be cancelled upon receipt of written notice via electronic mail (email) or a letter mailed first-class in the event of (1) the death or disability of the member, and the member is unable to receive all of BOWA services, which the member has contracted.

Satisfaction Guarantee: 

If you are experiencing any challenges whatsoever with our program, please contact our Customer Service Department at [email protected] immediately.

If for any reason during the first week/session of your contract, our BPP program does not reach your expectations, we will gladly cancel membership without cancellation fee. After the first week trial, you are obligated to fulfill your contract.

No Show

If you miss a session, it is not BOWA’s responsibility to fill you in on what you missed.

The copyright in all such materials remains the property of BOWA and may not be recorded, used, distributed, amended, or reproduced, under any circumstances.

Any unresolved disputes regarding this agreement shall be settled by binding arbitration before a single arbitrator, using the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association, in Miami, Florida.
