Veterans & service members
You served.
Now build what's yours.
Veterans and service members starting a business get up to 50% off Growth Aware: half off any website build and 25% off monthly marketing retainers.
What you get
The same team, the same work and the same standards every client gets. Just at a price that respects what you've already given.
50%
off website builds
Your full custom website at half price. Mobile-first, built to turn visitors into calls and customers, usually live in about 30 days.
25%
off monthly retainers
Social media, business coaching or follow-up systems: 25% off your monthly rate for as long as your retainer is active. Month to month, no long contract.
Up to 50%
off other projects
Branding, AI tools and other one-time projects. We'll set your discount on the call, up to 50%, based on the work.
Discounts apply to Growth Aware's fees. Domains, hosting, software subscriptions and ad spend are billed at cost.
Why we do this
The discipline, follow-through and grit you built in uniform are exactly what it takes to start a business.
Marketing shouldn't be the thing that holds you back. A website that brings in calls and a steady presence online cost real money, and that money matters most at the start. This program is our way of saying thank you with something more useful than a handshake.

Questions
For as long as your retainer stays active. Retainers are month to month, so there's no long contract.
Program terms
Open to U.S. veterans discharged under honorable conditions, military retirees, and current active duty, National Guard and Reserve members who own at least 51% of the business. One business per eligible owner. Eligibility must be verified before the discount is applied, and it applies to agreements going forward, not past invoices.
50% off applies to Growth Aware's website build fee. 25% off applies to Growth Aware's monthly retainer fee for as long as that retainer stays active. Other one-time projects receive a discount of up to 50%, set in writing on your proposal. Third-party costs (domains, hosting, software subscriptions, ad spend) are billed at cost and aren't discounted. The discount can't be combined with other discounts or promotions and has no cash value.
Growth Aware may change or end this program at any time. Approved clients keep their discount on agreements that are already active. Growth Aware is a private company; this program is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Department of Defense, the Department of Veterans Affairs or any branch of the U.S. Armed Forces.
