30 DAYS OF MENTORING
30 Days of Mentoring was created after teaching over 10,000 entrepreneurs – both analog and digital – around the world.
The material consists of four weekly modules. We build your customer avatar, growth model/equation, competitor/complement landscape, financial model, pitch deck, and investor list together.
At the end of the 30 day period you will have a list of 20 vetted investors who are ideal for your company. I make introductions to investors on a case-by-case basis.
30 Days of Mentoring is a one-on-one mentoring session that’s offered 4 times per year – Jan 15th, Mar 15th, June 15th, and Sept 15th.

FOUNDERS' MASTERCLASS
Founders’ Masterclass is a 30 day interactive, DIY, course that covers everything an entrepreneur needs to know to build a sustainable company – customer avatar, growth model/equation, competitor/complement landscape, financial model, pitch deck, and investor list.
In Founders’ Masterclass, entrepreneurs work at their own pace yet have unlimited email access to the content creator to clarify material.
This course is ideal for a startup entreprenuer who doesn’t want one-on-one review and feedback* on the exercises laid out in the course.
Entrepreneurs who complete Founders’ Masterclass and decide to upgrade to 30 Days of Mentoring receive a credit for the fee of the course.

How to Profit from Your Mistakes
We all make mistakes. The goal is to learn not only from our own mistakes, but the mistakes of those who came before us. Ray Dalio is one of the greatest investors of our time.
