Introduction To Lean Start-Ups - MGM (rev0)

This is an 8 week training program for business owners who desire to retool their entrepreneurial skill sets and for business start-ups, particularly those in the following areas:

• tech
• makers/hobbyist
• creatives/artists
• foodies

What separates this training workshop series from other types of business development training sessions being offered throughout the region include:

• focusing upon "customer discover and development" and not on a "marketing plan". Individuals are trained not in how to conduct "market research" but in how to actually discover and develop their customers and then walk them through a process that results in those customers generating revenue.
• teaching individuals how to build a viable business enterprise without having to take out a home equity loan or the elusive "unsecured" business line of credit, self-fund their business through their personal savings, or having to chase "seed capital" from investors which rarely exists. This allows the entrepreneur to be beholden to the only individual that really matters in the life of the business operations - THE CUSTOMER!
• for high growth potential businesses, training individuals how to create an economic and operational foundation that provides them with greater leverage once they begin to entertain a discussion with any form of an investor such as an angel or venture type.
• to interested parties, showing individuals the proper time to transition from their 8am-5pm employment into the world of entrepreneurship.
• a step-by-step walk through of how the Lean Start-Up technique is one of the best techniques for preparing for any and every type of proverbial "business pitching" opportunity.
