Meet Your Instructors
Mark and Suzanne have helped hundreds of individuals aged 50+ years learn the essential skills they need to start a business.
While we come from very different backgrounds, we’ve both ‘been there and done it’. Both over 50, we have both worked for ourselves for over 50 years collectively (!). That’s a whole lot of learning.
We have been featured in:
Suzanne Noble
Suzanne is the ‘connector,’ with a vast range of contacts who, with a background in PR, has used her networking skills to support her own and a number of Startup School for Students business endevours. She also walks the walk, with a portfolio career that includes jazz and blues singing and a TikTok channel with nearly 55k followers. You will struggle to find anyone with an entrepreneurial background similar to her own.
Mark Elliott
Mark is the supporter, who has been a business coach and educator for over ten years, and worked with both young and older entrepreneurs from all walks of life, helping them to spot and overcome any challenges they may be having. He’s a straight talker and, having had his own share of ups and downs in the business world (he exited from a unicorn!), he is determined to help you to avoid making many of the mistakes he has seen firsthand.
Your age is your secret weapon
Recognise the advantage that comes from being older
Here's a little known fact - people that start businesses over 50 are more likely to be successful than younger people because of the wealth of knowledge and experience gained over a lifetime. You will have a clearer sense of your goals and be better equipped to manage the risks and challenges of starting and growing a successful business. With our help and support you have every chance of running a profitable business.
Startup School For Seniors
isn't like other programs out there.
HERE IS WHY . . .
You are being taught by relatable instructors who have been there and done it for themselves. We're not academics but people with lived experience of running businesses.
We have designed the course to be done at a pace to suit you and made it fully accessible with captions and transcriptions.
We won't make false promises. Starting a business requires putting in the work and solving a genuine problem. We make sure you have the key ingredients you need.
Loads of inspirational case studies. Our bonus materials include many examples of people over 50 who have chosen and succeeded in multiple careers.
We speak your language. We won't patronise you or use words you don't understand - so no matter what your education level, we believe in you.
