Terms of Service

1. Who we are

Blue Collar Board, LLC ("Blue Collar Board," "we," "us") is a South Carolina limited liability company based in West Columbia, SC 29172.

2. When these terms apply

These terms apply when you apply, book a call, sit in, buy a seat, buy a VALT product, or sign up for texts. When you pay, you check a box that says you agree. Members also sign the Member Agreement. Sit-in guests sign the Guest Agreement. If one of those says something different from these terms, it wins for that topic.

3. What Blue Collar Board is, and what it isn't

A peer table. Owners bring real business decisions and get questions, pushback, and follow-up from other owners who've lived something like it.

It is owners sharing what they've lived. It is not coaching, counseling, therapy, or training. It is not legal, tax, accounting, insurance, investment, or other professional advice, even when a member or a guest works in one of those fields. Get your own licensed professional before you act. Every decision you make stays yours, and so does what comes of it.

4. Applying

Seats are by application. Applying doesn't guarantee a seat. We decide who sits at which table. We keep competitors off the same table.

5. Seats and price

• In-person seat: $500 a month, month to month. Once a month, half a day, in the Midlands of South Carolina.
• Your first sit-in meeting is free. We don't take a card for it.
• No long-term contract.

6. Billing

When you buy a seat, your card is charged the seat price that day and on the same date every month after, until you cancel. Payments run through our payment processor. Your statement shows BLUE COLLAR BOARD. You get an emailed receipt every month. Each January we email you a reminder of your price, these terms, and how to cancel.

7. Canceling

Cancel any time, any of these ways:

• Use the cancel page at bluecollarboard.io/cancel.
• Email [email protected], or use the "Cancel my seat" link on our site.
• Reply "cancel" to any email from us.
• Text CANCEL SEAT to 803-303-0655.

Cancel before your next billing date and you won't be charged again. We process it the same business day and confirm by email. No questions asked and no sales pitch.

8. Refunds

All sales are final. We don't refund part of a month. You keep your seat through the month you paid for. One exception: if we close a table or remove you without cause, we refund the unused part of the month.

9. Price changes

If the price changes, we email you at least 30 days before the new price hits your card. Cancel before then and you won't pay it.

10. Attendance

Miss two meetings in a row and the seat opens. We stop billing, tell you by email, and offer the seat to the next owner. You can apply again.

11. Conduct

This ain't that. No politics, no religion, no selling to each other in the room. Show up with your Work Order ready, or ready to work somebody else's. Proud of the work, humble about yourself. The full rules are in the Member Agreement.

12. Removal

Blue Collar Board is a private membership. We can suspend or remove any member at any time, for any reason or none. Billing stops the day you're removed. If we remove you without cause, we refund the unused part of that month. Removal for breaking confidentiality or the conduct rules comes with no refund for the current month.

13. Confidentiality

What's said at the table stays at the table: what was said, what was decided, the materials, and who was there. Members and guests sign to that. It survives after your seat ends. It's a promise between owners, not a legal privilege. A court can still order someone to talk or order records produced.

14. Recording

The Foreman records meetings on a notetaking device so nobody's commitments get lost. Only the Foreman hears the audio. It's deleted within 7 days, unless the law requires us to keep it. We keep one written list of who said they'd do what by when, and only your table sees it. Anyone can say "off the record" and it stops. Recordings are never used for content, marketing, or AI training. Members and guests may not record. Full details are in our Recording Policy.

15. Introductions and expert guests

Members introduce the pros they use. Nobody gets paid for an introduction, not us and not you. If that ever changes for us, we tell every member in writing first. Expert guests give general talks and don't give advice about your situation from the front of the room. Nobody raises money from the table.

16. Text messages

Program: Blue Collar Board texts, covering Blue Collar Board and its programs, including VALT. Messages come from 803-303-0655.

What you'll get: application and scheduling texts, meeting reminders, billing notices, and anything else you checked a box for. If you checked the separate news box, invitations and table news, up to 4 a month.

Frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out. You'll get one confirmation and nothing after that. Reply HELP for help, or email [email protected]. Carriers aren't liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Texting consent is never a condition of applying, joining, or buying.

If you text us first, we'll reply by text. That's all. We don't add you to any texts unless you check a box.

17. VALT

VALT products are sold by the same business. The price and what you get are shown before you pay. One-time purchases are one-time unless the pay page says otherwise. If a VALT product didn't deliver what the page said, tell us within 14 days and we'll make it right or refund it.

18. No guarantees

We make no promises about revenue, profit, growth, or how any decision turns out. Business carries risk.

19. Limits on what we owe you

As far as the law allows: we aren't responsible for lost profits or for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages from taking part. Our total responsibility for any claim is capped at what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. What other members share is their experience, not advice, and you agree not to hold them or us responsible for what you decide. None of this limits responsibility for gross negligence, willful misconduct, or anything the law doesn't allow us to limit.

20. Our materials

Our formats, meeting designs, and documents belong to us. Don't copy them or use them outside the table without written permission.

21. Accessibility

If any part of our site or forms is hard to use with a screen reader, keyboard, or other tool, email [email protected] or text 803-303-0655. We'll fix it or get you what you need another way.

22. Disputes

South Carolina law governs these terms. If we disagree, we talk first: email us and give us 30 days to make it right. If that doesn't settle it, either side can bring it in the state or federal courts for Lexington County, South Carolina, and you agree to those courts. Either side can use small claims court instead, if the claim qualifies.

23. Changes

We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version. If we make a change that affects your price, billing, or rights, we email members at least 30 days before it applies.
