In a rapidly changing world, the line between work and entrepreneurship is blurring. It is becoming easier and easier to create new products, so more and more people are combining this with their main activity. The ability to build a business becomes a basic skill needed to achieve success.
Internet entrepreneurship involves creating a product or service directly on the Internet. This allows you to enter markets of any scale: from local to global. In addition, the development of online technologies constantly opens up new opportunities for the implementation of the most daring business ideas.
The sooner a young man realizes that he has the opportunity to create and launch his own project, the sooner he will become successful in this area. There are many programs for adult entrepreneurs emerging, but we want to inspire schoolchildren.
90% of startups close in the first 3 years - mainly due to the illusions of the creators that their ideas are needed by people and will pay off. Using our own experience of ups and downs, we will teach your child techniques that will help him be among the successful 10%. No special knowledge is required to complete the course. Everything is simple and clear - you can explain it “on your fingers”.
We recommend the course to every child - regardless of whether he will ever do business. Generating ideas - the ability to distinguish facts from assumptions, test hypotheses, plan, analyze, distribute, simplify tasks, give a presentation - all this is called soft skills and is used in a wide variety of everyday and professional spheres.
The Internet Entrepreneurship course is recommended for every child over 12 years of age because it:
- will master cost-effective and flexible techniques for creating a startup on the Internet and quickly testing its viability;
- learn to work in a team and distribute tasks;
- learn to analyze the profitability of channels through unit economics;
- learn to create a product or service on the Internet;
- competently and concisely presents his own Internet project.
The course is based on the flexible and cost-effective methods of Lean StartUp and HADI, as well as Goldratt's Theory of Constraints. All this allows you to quickly and step by step launch a business in a rapidly changing external environment. This knowledge is useful for everyone, but, unfortunately, this is not yet taught in schools and universities.
What else does this course provide?
- Understanding of how online business is built;
- Ability to generate ideas, formulate and quickly test hypotheses based on them; identify facts - even when everyone is lying;
- The ability to find target segments, draw up a client portrait, communicate with the target audience, identifying their problems, ways to solve them and understanding how and where to attract this audience;
- The ability to find monetization schemes, evaluate the market, count conversions, unit economics to identify strong and weak customer acquisition and sales channels, as well as points of potential multiple growth business;
- Ability to formulate and execute compelling value propositions, announcements, offers and appeals;
- Understanding how to create an MVP (minimum valuable product), how to test it, promote it and make the first sales;
- Ability to prepare a high-quality presentation and correctly convey the main points during the speech;
- As well as useful secrets and life hacks on each topic (the author of the course is an active Internet entrepreneur and faces such problems every day).
