Friends.
I’m excited to let you know about our first small business and charity accelerator programme, which will kick off on November 16th and run for 8 weeks.
Who it’s for:
Individuals or small teams who want to launch a new business or charity project, and head into 2025 with a clear plan of action.
Also relevant to people with an existing project they want to grow to the next level using a structured, tried-and-tested approach.
People with a professional background who want to move into a new career and build something valuable for themselves for the long term (£££).
Particularly relevant to people building small independent media, healthcare, education and farming projects, but applicable to any small business or charity.
People who are excited about building parallel systems for a Distributed society.
How it works:
You join our structured, 8-week programme which helps you progress your nascent idea into a fully developed value proposition, operating model and action plan for 2025 that you can confidently launch into the market.
You use our accelerator frameworks to think through everything you need to set up and run your project: from the customer experience and proposition, to the underlying processes, technology and financial models required to operate on an ongoing basis.
You join a weekly 60-90 minute briefing call, starting on Saturday November 16th.
You complete 2-3 hours of homework during the week using the accelerator frameworks provided. (Although we encourage you to invest more time if you have it available).
If required, you join a second weekly Q&A call for additional support from myself and others on the course during the week (day and time TBC).
We focus on creative exploration, spiritual growth and development, as well as the technical and commercial skills required to launch your new project.
What you’ll need to complete the course:
Ideas, energy, ambition and a positive attitude to make things happen.
Access to a computer and internet connection.
The course can be completed entirely online, but we also encourage the use of physical and printed materials such as A3 / A2 paper, post-it notes and marker pens as there’s nothing quite like making a mess when working on a new idea..!
Who’s running the programme:
Ben Rubin (hi, it’s me in the video). I spent 18 years advising international corporations and big brands on launching new ventures.
I’ve distilled the best practical tools and frameworks from that world into this accelerator programme designed specifically to help people launch and run their own small, independent businesses and charities.
I also work as a reporter for UK Column and run a blog Rise UK. This required me to make my own career transition over the past 2 years which has helped me develop many of the tools in this programme.
How to get involved:
The course costs £200 and you can sign up over on our Mighty Network.
If you have any questions, please drop a comment below or reply to this email (if this is in your email inbox.)
We’re aiming for 20 people max on the programme to keep things focused and allow lots of personal interaction.
For people who’ve already bought the GENESIS course from PATTERN, you’re very welcome to join the accelerator for free as part of your original purchase. Please message me via Mighty Network for more info.
Looking forward to meeting you all and building something amazing together…!
E pluribus unum.
Much love.
