Course overview

Unlock growth and funding.

As a startup founder, it's easy to spread yourself thin without moving the needle.

Stop:

❌ Wasting time building more features

❌ Increasing burn by hiring prematurely

❌ Aiming for growth by investing in sales & marketing

When working on the wrong things, you delay your pathway to growth.

In this 1-week course, you'll go from "trying everything" to "nailing your next steps".

This course is for an action-driven founder who:

Have an idea with a bright potential.

You've limited resources and need confidence in what to do next to validate a market need.

Have a Product/MVP with some traction.

You are spread thin, feel like you're wasting time and resources but still struggle for growth.

Have a startup with some customers.

You're struggling to see good retention and unlock scalable growth or investment.

Key Outcomes:

Gain a clear picture of product-market fit and how it applies to your product 💡

Before you rush for growth and expansion, you'll narrow down your target audience and underserved customers' needs to identify a blue ocean opportunity.

Nail your value proposition 🚀

Get to the core of the problem you solve so that defining your value proposition becomes a walk in the park and your messaging 10x more effective.

Build a test, iterate, and validate mindset 🔁

Confidently prioritize and focus your efforts so you stop building more than you need until you learn.

Measure what matters 📐

Determine what to measure (and what not!) and navigate pitfalls when validating your product/market fit.

Gain clarity on your actionable next steps 🔍

Get personalized and hands-on help for your specific case and product to progress toward your product/market fit.

Testimonials ❣️

Here is what alums have to say...

It was a game changer for my Startup and me. I've gained so much valuable and applicable information. It changed my mindset and kept me focused on the problem I've looked to solve. The exercises in the live workshop were productive.

Maddalena Facci

Founder & CEO at Insurtic

It was an excellent hands-on course. I came overwhelmed with a full list of features and tasks to do and was able to throw half of them out. I got a ton of feedback from the instructors that I was able to implement immediately!

Guy Levy

Founder & CEO at MyBodyPro

I was facing a mental block on various things when it comes to operating as a sole Founder. I was able to unblock that and get my thinking back on track. I don't know how they can connect the dots so fast and tell you what you need to do next.

Ayhan Isaacs

Founder at Growth Rhino

This course helped me gain confidence and clarity in writing my pitch to investors. I was spread thin trying to solve 3 different problems for 3 different target customers, and I was able to narrow it down to one problem for a specific target audience.

Founder & CEO at AidSupply
