Phase 1 is for you if this sounds Familiar

  • You've never made a set, and you want to learn it properly from your very first one.
  • You've watched so many tutorials that you don't know which way is right anymore.
  • Your sets look great on day one and lift a few days later.
  • There are so many brands that you're scared of buying the wrong products.
  • You're learning alone, with nobody to tell you what's wrong with a set.

If your sets already last and the business side is where you're stuck, start with Phase 2.

A look Inside Phase 1

On the day you join, the Phase 1 portal has a lesson from Chloe, the course library with all nine modules in order and the action step under every lesson.

Every lesson is a video from Chloe, and each module ends with a Take Action lesson, your homework for that module.

Questions people ask before they Enroll

I've never done nails. Is Phase 1 right for me?

Yes. Phase 1 starts from zero, and you don't need to buy anything before you start, because the buying list inside tells you what to get first. If your sets already look and last the way you want and the business side is where you're stuck, Phase 2 is the better place to start.

Do I need to buy products first?

No. The buying list tells you what to get first and which brands are worth it, and you can ask Chloe before you order anything.

How long does it take?

Most people finish in about four weeks. All nine modules open on day one, so you go at your pace, and your access never expires.

Will anyone check my work?

Yes. Every module ends with a Take Action step you post in the Phase 1 community, Chloe gives you feedback on your work as you go, and she reviews your final set herself before you start selling.

Is it live or recorded?

The lessons are recorded, so you watch them whenever it suits you. The two live calls a month are on Zoom on Sundays at 4pm EST, and the replay goes up the next morning.

Is there a payment plan?

If you're in the US, yes, and you choose it on the payment step at checkout. Outside the US it's one payment in US dollars for now, and your bank does the conversion.

Can I join from outside the US?

Yes. Everything is online and taught in English, and the Method has trained 1,500 artists across 40+ countries.

Will I get a certificate?

Not a paper one. You get a badge in the portal when you graduate, and you can say you trained with The Press On CEO Method.

What happens after Phase 1?

Once your final set is approved, you graduate, and your graduate gift on Phase 2 is waiting for you in the portal. Phase 2 is where you build the business side, from your brand to your launch day.

A message from your Mentor

When I started By Chloe Nails in February 2021, I pieced it all together from tutorials and wished there was one clear place to learn it properly. Phase 1 puts what I learned in one place, in the order you need it.

I give you feedback on your work as you go and review your final set myself, so before you sell a single set, I've seen your work up close. I can't wait to see your final set.
