Three steps. About two weeks.

From application to a branded vehicle on the road and a property advisor on a call. The process is built to take as little of your time as possible — because new business owners don't have any. Five-minute application, two-business-hour review, real install in two weeks.

The process

From application to finished install in about two weeks.

Each step has a clear handoff and a real human responsible. No automation, no chatbots, no "your application is being reviewed" loop.

01

Apply

Five fields, five minutes. Name, business name, license date, county, services you want. Hit submit. You'll see a confirmation page within seconds.

02

Verify

Within two business hours, a real person reads your application. We confirm eligibility (date + Chicagoland address) and route you. You get an email with next steps.

03

Get going

Graphics: 30–90 minute install scheduled at the CFW Chicago studio. Property: Regions PM advisor schedules a 1-hour consultation within a week.

What to expect at each step

Detail. Step by step.

STEP 1 · APPLY

The five-field form

The form asks for the absolute minimum: your name, business name, email, phone, license date, county, and which services would help. There's an optional "anything we should know" field — vehicle make/model, space needs, timeline, logo files, that kind of thing.

You don't upload your license at this point. We ask later if eligibility looks good. We don't want to slow you down at the front of the funnel.

Time required

Five minutes if you have your license date handy. Two if you've got it memorized.

STEP 2 · VERIFY

Real human review

A real person — not an algorithm — reads your application within two business hours during business days. We check eligibility (date + address), look at any notes you left, and decide which founding partner(s) to route to.

You'll get an email confirming eligibility and asking for the one document we need: a photo or scan of your business license. From there we connect you with the right partner for next steps.

Turnaround

Two business hours typical. Same business day always.

STEP 3A · GRAPHICS

Vehicle graphics install

Chicago Fleet Wraps schedules your install. Bring your own logo files if you have them (vector preferred — AI, EPS, SVG). If not, CFW's in-house designers will produce 2–3 layout options for your approval before printing — design is included.

The install itself takes 30–90 minutes in CFW's heated, climate-controlled studio in Chicago. Drop the vehicle off, grab a coffee nearby, drive away with a branded vehicle. Most installs happen within two weeks of approval. Specific address and scheduling details are sent directly to approved recipients.

STEP 3B · PROPERTY

Property search consultation

Regions PM schedules a 1-hour consultation call (phone or video, your choice) within a week. They walk through current listings matched to your needs — office, retail, warehouse, or co-working space — anywhere in the six-county Chicagoland metro.

You leave the call with a packet of properties to consider, neighborhood-level rent benchmarks, and lease term guidance. The kind of conversation that keeps founders from signing 5-year leases on spaces they outgrow in eight months.
