BOOST: Build Your Business Foundation

A hybrid, multi-day intensive for entrepreneurs ready to turn momentum into a real plan.

Overview

Boost is a hands-on, mentor-driven workshop for entrepreneurs already generating revenue and ready to strengthen their business foundations. Over two in-person Saturdays and four evening Zoom sessions, you'll work side-by-side with experienced mentors to build the tools every growing business needs — and leave with something you can actually use.

What You'll Walk Away With

By the end of Boost, you'll have built:

• 📋 A Business Plan — a clear roadmap for where your business is headed and how you'll get there

• 💰 A Financial Model — real numbers that show where you stand and where you're growing

• 🎤 An Elevator Pitch — a compelling, confident way to talk about your business to anyone, anywhere
