Most startups make the mistake of 'winging it'. I admit it ... I made that same mistake over 25 years ago when I started my first business.
Years ago, it was easier to start a business without a plan and make money at it. Today, that's not the case. Social media is saturated with online marketers, making it difficult to grab the attention of scrolling target clients. Today, over half the population has a side hustle, so you're competing with millions of disengaged workers trying to find their purpose in a side 'gig.' Perhaps you're one of them.
Sadly, most startups today are unprepared for the journey and quit. School doesn't prepare us to start a business. And trying to copy successful influencers on social media doesn't work either. Unless you've held that top job in your career, nothing prepares you for the scope of responsibilities, accountability and loneliness of the role as startup business owner ... until now.
According to McKinsey, "the best CEOs are excellent in a few areas, and do a solid if not exemplary job in the others" (CEO Excellence). The goal of my 8-week GET STARTUP READY Program is to help you develop an 'inch deep' capability in every area of your business, and to set you on a path to becoming a 'mile deep' in those key areas where it matters - preparing you for that 'top job'.
