How membership works

Members have bundled access to up to 3 starter solution deployment programmes, with direct support from the Shoestring Engineer.

Each programme includes:

  2. Access online check-in sessions
  3. The impact and review workshop

What will happen once I buy?

After buying a Shoestring membership, our team will contact you to work out which Starter Solution to tackle first.

We then set you up with access to the Shoestring Community Forum,  and get you started deploying your initial solution.

We take you through the standard Shoestring process, then at the impact review stage you will decide which solution to go for next.
