HighLevel Launches Internship Program for Business Building

TL;DR

HighLevel launched an internship program focused on building new businesses. This does not require immediate action from agency owners.

Who this affects

This update affects individuals interested in participating in future HighLevel internship programs. It may interest agency owners considering hiring or mentoring new talent, but HighLevel has not confirmed its impact on agencies.

What changed

HighLevel announced a new internship program. The program is nine weeks in length. Participants in the program are tasked with building their own companies, seeking clients, and generating revenue. The initial cohort included students from universities such as UT Austin, Houston, Baylor, Ohio State, and Dartmouth. Many participants in this first group reportedly had no prior experience in business or sales. HighLevel has not confirmed who is affected, what limits or plan gating apply, or its rollout status.

Where to find it

HighLevel has not published the location of this program or how to apply. As this is an internship, it is not a feature found within the GoHighLevel platform. Information regarding future cohorts would likely be found on HighLevel's official career or education pages.

How agencies will use this

Agencies themselves will not directly use this internship program as a product feature. However, an agency owner might consider this program as a potential source for future talent, especially if participants gain experience building businesses on the HighLevel platform. For example, an agency owner looking to expand their team might monitor news about these internships for graduates who have demonstrated the ability to acquire clients and generate revenue using HighLevel. They might look to hire individuals who have successfully completed the program, leveraging the program's focus on practical business building and client acquisition.

Our take

This is a minor update for existing Go HighLevel agency owners and SaaS entrepreneurs. It signals HighLevel's investment in cultivating new talent and potentially expanding its ecosystem. However, there is no immediate action required or new feature to implement for current users. HighLevel has not confirmed how this program will directly benefit or impact current agency operations.
