Description
This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.
Nobody starts a company because they wanted to learn unit economics. You start because of the product, and then everything else arrives whether you are ready or not. Here are 583 tools for everything else: 364 ready-to-use templates, procedures, checklists, question lists and AI prompts, 186 models and methods, 26 services shown on screen and 7 working files.
Open a lecture, take the template, apply it to your own business this week.
What actually kills early businesses
Rarely the idea. Usually the founder is excellent at one function and improvising the other five. The product is good and nobody can explain who it is for. Sales happen through personal contacts and stop the moment the founder gets busy. Marketing money goes out with no way to tell which half worked. There is revenue but never cash. And the whole operation depends on one person remembering everything, which works until it very suddenly does not.
What changes after this course
You have a strategy the team understands. You know who your product is for and which metric shows it is working. Marketing and sales run as a system you can measure. You see the business in numbers and plan the budget from them. And the operation keeps running when you step away from it.

Who is teaching
I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe. I am also a founder and lead the strategy of my own academy.
I made my first online course very simply: I saw how another person ran one and copied it, his work with the audience and his tools, onto my own expertise. Later, as the academy grew, I was offered many things to automate early on. I refused and did them by hand first. Some of them turned out to be unnecessary, and others I only understood well enough to automate after testing them manually. Sometimes it was simpler to change the process than to automate it.
