WHAT'S INSIDE

Two parts. One practice.

One Kit. The Playbook hands you the thinking and the moves. The Workbook is where you do the work. Both printed, both posted to you.

Included

The Playbook

Hardcover, in plain language. The thinking and the story behind building a venture, so the path is clear. Read it cover to cover or jump to where you are.
Included

The Workbook

The space to do the work. Structured exercises that turn an idea into a plan, and a plan into a venture. Think on paper, one move at a time.

Working with a group? Extra Workbooks are available for teams and classrooms. Get in touch.

How it works

Three steps. Your own pace.

1

Open the Playbook

Understand the move and the thinking behind it, in plain language. No jargon, no MBA required.

2

Do the work in the Workbook

Turn the move into action on the page. An idea becomes a plan you can act on.

3

Build your venture

Work the phases from first idea to tested product to your first paying customer.

THE METHOD

Twelve phases of building.

The Playbook and Workbook take you through the arc of a first venture. From working out what you're actually building, to getting your first customer, to running a business that doesn't run you. Each phase is a stage of the build, with the thinking in the Playbook and the work in the Workbook.

Who it's for

For first timers. And the people backing them.

If you've got an idea and the urge to bring it to life, this Kit is built for you. It meets you where you are. No experience required.

Young Founders works for young people, or anyone, building a first venture. It also works for parents, mentors and teachers who want to back a young person through the early, uncertain years of building.

You work the Kit at your own pace. The Playbook gives you the thinking and the moves. The Workbook is where you do the work. Both are printed and posted to you.

If you're 15 to 30

"I've got an idea. I don't know where to start. I want to build it properly."

If you're a parent

"My kid has a business idea. I want to support them without taking over."

If you're a teacher or mentor

"I work with young people building things. I want a practical and proven tool in their hands."

From people in the work

Built with people who did the work.

"

I came here to learn a range of skills, and I ended up learning about myself and life lessons. It went well beyond what I expected.

"

This work lifted my career to another level. Great knowledge and technique, and it helped me grow as a solution finder. I love the passion and energy.

"

His enthusiasm for people is contagious, which is exactly what I needed. Plenty of experience and examples to draw on, and always a tip or a current example to share.

Things people ask.

Two parts. The Playbook (hardcover print, posted to you) and the Workbook (print, posted to you). The Playbook holds the thinking and the moves. The Workbook is where you do the work.
