The Startup Path: all 7 Keys, from idea to open doors.

A structured course that walks you through every key decision a first-time founder faces — in order, in plain language, at your own pace. No fluff, no upsell walls inside the course.

Course only — tools and calculators live in the Startup Companion.

What the Path covers

Seven keys, each one a stage of the journey — validating your idea, understanding your market and customers, planning the money, making it legal, building your operation, getting your first customers, and opening day itself. Finish a key, unlock momentum for the next.

  • Built for first-time founders — no jargon, no assumed knowledge
  • Self-paced: progress is saved to your free account
  • Each key ends with concrete decisions made, not just lessons watched
  • Connects to the Network when a key calls for a pro (legal, tax, insurance)

Want the tools too?

The Companion works the Path with you.

The course is free forever. The $49/mo Startup Companion adds the doing: it writes your business, financial, and marketing plans, gives you vertical operational guides, and builds your provider checklist as you move through the keys.
