If you want to start an online business but you don’t know where to start, this masterclass is for you.
Maybe you know you want to start a business, but you’ve got no idea what your business would even be. Or maybe you’ve got too many ideas and you don’t know which one to actually pursue. Either way, the bit you’re stuck on is the most important part of starting a business: nailing the idea.
Get this part wrong and you can spend years building something that nobody actually wants to buy. Get it right, and everything that comes after is dramatically easier.
That’s what this 2-hour live masterclass is designed to fix.
I’ll teach you the same frameworks we teach inside our online business school – the ones that have helped complete beginners with no business experience start real businesses and actually start making money:
- Jawad a surgeon, started his health care VC fund securing founding and making his first 4 health tech investments.
- Salma bought a dental practice, quiting her made $86,000 in the last 5 months doing DevOps consulting.
- Fari built and launched her faith based habit tracking app while traveling 4 months out of the year.
- Layla a lawyer wrote and published her first childrens book made $14,000 in the last few months helping busy professionals lose weight.
None of them had business experience when they started. What they had was a systematic process for picking the right idea, validating it, and landing their first customers.
That’s the process I’m going to walk you through, live, on June 9th.
By the end of this session you’ll walk away with:
- A business idea filtered through the Spiritual MBA Idea Filter.
- Your niche defined as a clear “I help X do Y” statement.
- Your idea scored against the FAITH framework- the validation tool to figure out which business ideas actually correlate with making money.
- A minimum viable offer and a price point you could start with next week.
- Live feedback on ideas and offers (if you attend live).
This isn’t a passive watch-it-on-YouTube type of session. It’s a working session, with exercises throughout designed to give you clarity, a process, and the path to actually starting your lifestyle business.
You could ask ChatGPT for a business idea and it would give you something generic. The point of this masterclass is the opposite of generic: a specific, validated business idea built around your skills, your interests, and what people are actually willing to pay for.
And no, you don’t need to become a content creator or influencer to build a lifestyle business. This is about building a business doing what you’re already good at and giving you the financial and time freedom to live the life you want.
Spots are capped at 100. Once it’s full, it’s full. Replay will be available to all registrants.
