Take your business to the next level.

Empower by Godaddy, in partnership with the IDRS Acorn Project, is your chance to up your digital marketing game, all at no cost to you.  Equipping entrepreneurs, fulfilling lives is the motto of GoDaddy’s Empower program and that’s what we’ll be doing.  We’ll be equipping you with cutting edge technology tools to brand and market your business digitally.  These tools will be free of charge for the first two years and with extensive discounts after that period.

How the program works:

  1. Fill out an application.  Click here for the application and we’ll be in touch for a one-on-one appointment.
  2. Take part in a one-on-one call with an IDRS Acorn Project advisor.  On the call we’ll ask you where you are in your business and your digital marketing journey and give you some homework so you’re better prepared when the time comes to build a site.
  3. Attend 3 learning sessions where we’ll talk more about the GoDaddy platform, walk through how to build your website, and also give you tips and techniques to improving your site.
  4. Build your site (or improve your website if you already have one built).
  5. Get tons of great goodies from GoDaddy.
