Course Curriculum

Module 1 – Welcome

This first module is all about setting the stage for your success. We’ll explore tips and tricks, map out your course, and give you the grand tour of your new online home.

Think of this as your pre-flight checklist before we take off! We’ll help you pick the perfect launch date, carve out a workspace that inspires, and honestly assess if now’s the moment to make your dream a reality.

Module 2 – Validation

It’s time to roll up our sleeves and put those business ideas to the test! In Module Two, we’re ditching the guesswork and diving deep into validating your concept.

We’ll start by tapping into your passions and exploring the lay of the land in your chosen industry. Then, it’s all about getting to know your ideal clients like the back of your hand – their struggles, their aspirations, and how you can be their ultimate solution.

We’ll also craft a killer positioning statement that sets you apart from the crowd and start building trust with your future clients. By the end of this module, you’ll know for sure if you’ve got a golden business opportunity or just a fun side hustle.

Module 3 – Foundations 1

Module Three is all about getting the legal and foundational bits in place, so you can launch with confidence and clarity.

We’ll tackle the exciting (and sometimes daunting!) tasks of choosing and registering your business name, navigating the world of legal structures, and getting cozy with HMRC. We’ll even build a buzz-worthy website holding page to get your audience excited for what’s to come.

Then, it’s on to defining your offerings – those amazing products or services that’ll make your clients’ lives better – and crafting pricing strategies that make sense for both you and your customers. And to top it all off, we’ll dip our toes into the world of start-up accounting, so you can keep your finances in tip-top shape from day one.

No more legal jargon headaches or financial worries – just a solid foundation for a business that’s built to last.

Module 4 – Foundations 2

In Module Four we’re diving headfirst into the nitty-gritty of launching your business, making sure you’ve got all your legal ducks in a row, and building a buzz that’ll have your ideal clients lining up at your virtual door.

First up, we’re tackling the legal side of things – permissions, insurance, and all those important details that’ll keep your business safe and sound. Then, we’re unleashing your inner content creator! We’ll explore why content is king, who you’re talking to, what kind of magic to create, and where to share it for maximum impact.

Finally, it’s time to shine a spotlight on your business! We’ll explore strategies for building visibility and connecting with your tribe through online communities, networking like a pro, and growing an email list that’ll be your marketing goldmine.

Module 5 – Mindset 1

Get ready to dive deep into the most important asset you have on this journey – your mindset! Module Five is all about cultivating the mental strength and resilience you’ll need to not only launch your business but also thrive as an entrepreneur.

We’ll uncover your core motivations and shine a light on any limiting beliefs that might be holding you back. We’ll tackle that pesky imposter syndrome head-on and equip you with strategies to overcome challenges with grace and grit.

This module is packed with practical tools like business journaling and vision boarding to help you set and achieve your goals while staying connected to your bigger vision.

Let’s turn those “I can’ts” into “I wills” and those “I’m not enough” into “I am capable.”

Module 6 – Mindset 2

This week in Module Six, we’re taking a deeper dive into the entrepreneurial mindset – the mental fortitude that’ll keep you going when the going gets tough. We’re equipping you with the tools to stay motivated, create a work schedule that’s actually sustainable, and prioritise self-care so you can thrive in the long run.

We’ll master the art of time management and scheduling, ensuring you’re making the most of every minute. We’ll also explore strategies for overcoming challenges and those inevitable moments of doubt that creep in.

And to wrap things up, we’re going to plan your victory lap! Because launching your business is a HUGE accomplishment, and we’re going to celebrate it in style.

Module 7 – Implementation & Accountability

It’s time to turn those dreams into reality! Module Seven is all about putting your plans into motion and holding yourself accountable every step of the way.

We’ll kick things off with a catch-up to make sure everyone’s on the same page and any lingering questions are answered. Then, we’re tackling the fear of failure head-on. We’ll equip you with strategies to not only bounce back from setbacks but also to learn and grow from them.

Finally, we’ll dive into the nitty-gritty of crafting a business plan – your roadmap to success.

No more procrastination, no more excuses – just focused action and unwavering commitment. Your business is ready to take flight, and we’re here to cheer you on every step of the way.

Module 8 – Graduation

Congratulations, graduates! 🎉

Module Eight is your victory lap, a time to celebrate all you’ve accomplished!

We’ll kick off with a virtual graduation party where you can connect with your fellow entrepreneurs, share your wins, and toast to your bright future.

But the celebration doesn’t end there! You’ll also be welcomed into two amazing communities: the FindAMilspo Directory, your gateway to connecting with potential clients and collaborators, and the Milspo Network, an alumni network where you can continue to learn, grow, and support each other.
