Frequently Asked Questions

How can we help you?

What can you offer that I cannot get at other online schools?

Our workshops combine practical, hands-on exercises tailored for small business owners with real-world insights from experienced founders who’ve been through the journey themselves. You’ll benefit from personalised guidance, interactive activities, and a supportive community of peers, ensuring you can apply what you learn directly to your business. This mix of tailored, actionable content and direct access to entrepreneurial wisdom sets us apart.

Do I need previous business experience to participate?

No prior experience is necessary! The workshops are designed to support both new and aspiring business owners, providing practical guidance regardless of where you’re starting from.

How do I choose which modules to do?

You’ll get the most well-rounded experience by completing all six modules in the series, as they are designed to build on one another and provide a comprehensive foundation for your business journey. Plus, by purchasing the full bundle, you’ll only pay for four modules, making it a cost-effective way to gain all the insights and tools you need for success.

How long does each workshop take to complete? And when can I start?

The duration varies, but each module is designed to be flexible, allowing you to work through the content at your own pace.

You may enrol any day of the year. Be online and start your learning journey within a matter of seconds after enrolling.
