3 Key Takeaways from the Solopreneur’s Guide

Did you know that in the past year almost 57% of Americans have thought about starting their own business, but the overwhelming majority of them never got past the dreaming stage? 

Are you part of that percentage? 


We get it, starting a business is risky, and not for the faint of heart. You may be hesitant because you’ve heard, “You won’t be profitable for a while,” or “How do you know it’ll support you in the long run?” The truth is, a business can be extremely successful, if launched thoughtfully and built intentionally. The key is to minimize the risk of failure, but how can you actually do that? By using all resources available to you, whether it be advice from people who have been there, done that;  a proven framework that walks you through every loophole you need to know, or by keeping yourself accountable along the way.

The Solopreneur’s Guide, created by a diverse and established group of solopreneurs who have been in your exact position--aka the state of anxiety between hating your 9 to 5 and being too scared to take the leap into entrepreneurship-- is the key to your businesses success. 

But wait, what’s a solopreneur? A solopreneur is a small business owner or entrepreneur who solely owns and operates their business. In the beginning, many small businesses are run by solopreneurs, but it definitely takes a support system to keep yourself moving forward. Below, one of our first students shares their takeaways from the course:

  1. First, Build Your Foundation

This course will give you invaluable resources and worksheets, including financial spreadsheets for all of your first year finances; brand and website examples; contract templates and a variety of tools that are not available in other courses. 

2. Next, Develop Your Strategy

Along with foundational resources, this course will give you strategic insights to help you develop your specific business processes and launch your business effectively. 


3. Then, Execute Your Plan

Many courses give you the resources, but fail to help you truly execute a strategic plan. This course gives you actionable steps to take in order to successfully launch any type of business--from small to scaled.
