Sneak Peek: 7 Things You’ll Learn From the Solopreneur’s Guide

This month, BLME and friends launched our first official Solopreneur’s Guide - a 7 Module crash course designed to set entrepreneurs up for success. We partnered with other solopreneurs who have been right in your shoes to tell you everything we wish we had known when starting a business. The guide covers topics from pricing to social media to accounting to personal branding. We are so excited about this course that we wanted to give you a sneak peek of some tidbits you’ll learn from our program. Below, find 7 things you’ll learn from the Solopreneur’s Guide. 


Sneak Peek: 7 Things You’ll Learn From the Solopreneur’s Guide

1. You’ll learn that establishing a solid personal brand and network is essential for establishing and growing your business. 




2. We’ll explain how branding of your business itself is of the utmost importance - it is important to create a cohesive aesthetic, tone, and message throughout things like your website, company mission, business cards, vision, and value proposition. 




3. The guide will teach you to prioritize the legal aspects of your business from the jump. You need to register your business, establish which type of company structure you want (LLC, s-corp etc.), get a tax ID number, and figure out how you will bring in money. 




4. We’ll make sure you know to never get into a business deal without a contract. Before partaking in any business arrangement, make sure you have something in writing and signed. 




5. The program will emphasize that a solid social media and marketing plan is crucial for getting your business in front of your target audience. Our course includes a module that explains how to generate leads from social media and how to get people interested in your business.




6. Through the guide, you’ll realize the accounting aspects of a business can be intimidating and confusing, but it is extremely important to work with an accountant to figure out your taxes, target revenues, expenses, pricing, etc. 




7. You’ll be taught to think about your business from an HR perspective. This will help you form your company culture from the beginning, figure out what type of people to hire, and identify the kind of clients you want to work with. 




These tips are just a small fraction of the wealth of knowledge available in the Solopreneur’s Guide. Want to learn more? Be sure to sign up for the course!
