Launch Your Startup Idea for less than $5,000

Classroom

Ever wonder how the founders of Skillshare, Dropbox, and Foursquare got their startups off the ground? Enroll in this Skillshare and walk out with a framework to successfully validate your startup ideas, over and over again. Need more information? Feel free to watch the “Course Introduction” (pw: skillshare).

Format: We believe students "learn by doing with others" so imagine me as a teacher, curator, and facilitator. I've hand-selected different videos (from me and others), reading materials, projects, assignments, and in-person study groups to craft the best learning experience for you as a student.

Project: Each student will determine their MVP and create an actionable plan to iterate as fast and cheaply as possible to reach product/market fit. The collaborative project in this Skillshare will revolve around:

1. Conducting Customer Interviews
2. Defining your MVP and Creating an Action Plan

Prerequisites

Required: Startup Idea. Also, please budget 5 hours per week to really learn the material in this skillshare. This skillshare is geared towards "doers" and not talkers.
