Here's what you'll get when you enroll
Paradigm Shift: You’re never too old to start in business
Forget seeing age as a hindrance; it’s a huge asset. We’ll go over the structure of the course. Then we’ll focus on you and what brought you here. There will be some (easy) homework to reinforce what we’ve discussed each week.

Customers and your Business Ideas
We will find out who in the world needs your business. What problem does it overcome? We’ll suggest who your customers are and how to find them. You’ll try out your ideas.

Business Planning
We’ll discuss what you do and what the competition does. Devise a one-page business plan. We’ll find out how your customer manages without you. You’ll plan your first offer for your first customer.

Marketing and Branding
What’s your USP? You’ll be shown how to be different and get in front of your customers. We’ll unlock the secrets of social media. You will be able to explain your uniqueness in one sentence.

Money Matters
We discuss how money works in your business. How you fund it, the different business models, how much you pay yourself, and getting help. You will learn to create a simple financial model.

Legal Stuff
We’ll discuss some of the things business owners worry about, sometimes unnecessarily. Different legal entities, protecting your intellectual property, trademarks and copyright, buying a website, public liability, and health and safety – all will become clear.

All Change, Pivoting
It’s become the byword during the pandemic, but you will learn how and when it’s wise to pivot your business. You need more customers, but where can you get them? Scaling the business – is it what you want? Time for reflection and celebrating change.

It’s all about money and a celebration
Where did all the time go? A celebration of senior businesses. Brief recap on what we’ve learned. Support mechanisms. Keeping in touch and building the community. Goodbye but only for now. PLUS a Library of Good Things – handy tips to keep you focused.

What our students say

A really enjoyable and informative course encouraging collaborative working and exchange of skills which, together with a less pressured 'don't beat yourself up' philosophy, seems much better suited to those with some life experience behind them.
Jane Shenton

Absolutely brilliant and fun - wish it was longer. A must for everyone starting a business.
Harbinder Sodhi

Brilliant - so helpful to be taken step by step and also the mix of self-learning and online seminars.
Heather Wright

"I just wanted to say a Big Thank You for all your help and advice. It not only helped me with my company, it helped me build my confidence back and in turn my life.”
Max Wallace
Can you afford to pass this opportunity?
If you don't enroll, you'll be okay.
Nothing new will happen.
Nothing will change.
You will keep doing what you've been doing.
One day, you might learn to build your business without our support.
That's fine, and we cheer you on!
