What this course is NOT about . . .

It’s important to understand that entrepreneurial endeavors come with inherent risks and uncertainties. While mitigating these factors can increase the likelihood of success, there are no foolproof guarantees. Entrepreneurs must remain adaptable, resilient and proactive in addressing challenges as they arise.

It’s NOT a ‘Start Up’ Course

You’re not going to learn how to set up a business or create a product or service. What you’re going to learn is how to take the guesswork out of validating an idea BEFORE wasting valuable resources.

It’s NOT a ‘Marketing’ or ‘Selling’ Course

You’re not going to learn how to market or sell your product or service. What you’re going to learn is how your competitors are marketing and selling their similar products and services.

It’s NOT a ‘Funding Your Business’ course

You’re not going to learn how to fund your business, product or service. What you’re going to learn is your chances of securing funding with a validated idea.

It’s NOT a Guarantee for a successful outcome course

Once you’ve validated your idea, there are many factors influencing a successful outcome. Such as insufficient funding, economic downturns, shifts in consumer preferences, intense competition, lack of skills, ineffective management, operational inefficiencies, flawed marketing and sales strategies, legal and regulatory changes, geopolitical events, or unforeseen disruptions (e.g. pandemics, natural disasters) . . . just to name a few.
