About this Event

This program is for you if:

Stage 1 — Idea: You have a startup idea but no clear path from concept to MVP. You need a validated sequence before you spend a dollar or hour in the wrong direction.

Stage 2 — MVP: You have built your Minimum Viable Product (MVP) and need proven strategies in Product Positioning, Sales & Marketing to get your first real traction.

Stage 3 — Growth: You are running a startup and want to achieve YoY growth, secure investment, and map your Exit strategies.

**

This startup masterclass walks you through all of it, live and in-depth — whether you are still sitting on an idea, deep in the MVP phase, or already running a startup and stuck on growth, investment readiness, or Exit strategies.

**

IMPORTANT (MUST READ) : This Startup Founders Masterclass will be DELIVERED LIVE via ZOOM VIDEO MEETING.

**

THE AGENDA OF THIS EVENT/PROGRAM:-

1. BUILDING A STARTUP BUSINESS

  • No idea is too old — the market is always ready for it, when executed properly
  • How to execute your startup idea with minimal time, money, and effort
  • How to validate whether your startup idea will work — and what to do if it won't
  • The exact sequence every founder must follow before spending a single dollar


2. MARKET RESEARCH & STATISTICS

  • Why market research is non-negotiable — and how to do it for your startup
  • How to use Crowdsourcing to get the data you need, fast and at low cost
  • How to read Demographics to pinpoint exactly who will buy your product
  • How to build product and marketing strategies from real data, not assumptions


3. MVP/POC (MINIMUM VIABLE PRODUCT / PROOF OF CONCEPT / PROTOTYPE)

  • What your MVP should actually look like — and how to build it for free
  • How to test whether the market will accept your product before you invest heavily
  • How to define your Business Model, identify Early Adopters, and apply Iteration methods
  • How to generate your first real traction before you have a finished product


4. PRODUCT & PRODUCT POSITIONING

  • How to determine the real value customers will pay for — without hesitation
  • Whether your startup is B2B or B2C — or both — and what that means for your go-to-market
  • Whether Loss Leader Pricing applies to your model and how to use it correctly
  • How to build CTAs (Calls to Action) that convert interest into paying customers


5. GO TO MARKET (GTM) STRATEGY

  • How to let the market know what you are building — before you finish building it
  • How to lock in your First Mover Advantage (FMA) before competitors catch up
  • Whether Freemium or Gamification fits your startup model — and how to execute it
  • How to choose between a soft launch and a launch party — and build a Market Penetration strategy


6. CUSTOMER ACQUISITION & RETENTION

  • How to identify your ideal target audience and stop wasting budget on the wrong people
  • Customer Behaviour Modelling (CBM) — what it is and how to apply it to your startup
  • How to calculate CLV (Customer Lifetime Value) and use it to project MRR, ARR, and IRR
  • How CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost) interacts with CLV / LTV for sustainable recurring growth


7. SALES & MARKETING STRATEGIES

  • How to build a complete Sales & Marketing playbook — Direct, Indirect, Offline, and Digital
  • What actually motivates new customers to buy — and how to engineer that trigger
  • How to optimise SQLs and MQLs to increase conversion rates at every stage of the funnel
  • Why Advertorials, Growth Hacking, and PR are essential to hitting your MRR / ARR targets


8. INVESTMENT READINESS (STARTUP FUNDRAISING)

  • Why investors keep saying no — and the specific, fixable reasons behind it
  • How to Bootstrap, Crowdfund, and Equity Crowdfund your startup
  • Burn Rate, Cash Flow (positive and negative), Churn Rate, and IP (Copyrights, Patents, Trademarks) — explained
  • How to build a compelling Pitch Deck and Business Plan that earns real traction and fair Valuation


9. INVESTOR’S ANALYSIS OF YOUR STARTUP

  • The simple questions every investor asks — and why most founders cannot answer them
  • How to read a Term Sheet and understand the clauses that affect you as a founder long-term
  • How a founder with 100 customers can raise $1 million — while another with 10,000 customers raises nothing
  • How to calculate and defend your pre-money and post-money Valuation


10. ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE OF YOUR STARTUP

  • How to build an internal organisation structure that can actually execute your strategy
  • KAM (Key Account Management) and KPI frameworks — how to set them up from day one
  • How to build Evangelists inside your team and customer base — and when and how to Pivot
  • How to run a proper SWOT Analysis and turn it into an action plan


11. COMMON ISSUES WITH STARTUPS & FOUNDERS

  • Why your startup is not picking up — even after months of effort and real money spent
  • Why customer acquisition keeps breaking down and retention never sticks
  • How to overcome financial, operational, and customer problems simultaneously
  • What to do when your startup is on the verge of collapse — and how to find a way out
