FAQ
How are your Advisors vetted?
Our Advisors are carefully selected and approved from a pool of seasoned experts. Each Advisor’s experience, specialization, credentials, and work is evaluated by our team to ensure each Advisor is able to offer best-in-class advice to our clients.
How much does it cost to connect with an Advisor?
Borderline is a pay-as-you-need-it service, so you only pay for a session when you have questions. The cost is $150 for a 30-minute session and $300 for a 60-minute session. If you book three consecutive Sessions in one order, receive 20% off total bill.
How do I know if an Advisor is right for me?
Our Advisor quiz is the best place to start finding your Advisor. In a few minutes, we can help match you with an Advisor that aligns with your needs. You can also browse our Advisors' experience, industry, and history to get a sense of what their specialty is. Still not sure? Our advice is to start with a short, 30-minute call to answer a few of your most pressing questions. If you feel it's a good fit, you can book them for a longer session.
How do I become an Advisor with Boarderline?
We believe in offering our clients a diverse range of Advisors and, as such, are always looking for talented, experienced people to join us. To ensure the quality of the service provided, we do have a thorough review process and there may be a waiting period if our roster is full. Please fill out our form if you would like to be considered.
What is the cancellation and refund policy?
You have until 24 hours before your scheduled Advisor Session to reschedule or cancel your Session for a full refund. If you miss the cut-off, you will not be refunded or issued a credit.
If your Advisor cancels at any time, you can choose one of the following options: a credit to reschedule with the originally booked Advisor or another Advisor, or a full refund.
How do I prepare for my Advisor Session?
Prior to your booked Session, you will be asked to fill out and submit a Questionnaire to help your Advisor prepare. This is to ensure that you can maximize your time with your Advisor. If you choose not to complete the questionnaire, you risk taking up a considerable amount of your allotted time explaining your company and challenges to your Advisor.
