Pat Flynn – Smart From Scratch 2022Will your business idea work?LEARN HOW TO TEST IDEAS WITHOUT BREAKING THE BANKIt’s these questions that keep aspiring business owners up at night: “Will my idea work? Are there enough customers? How do I know there isn’t a better idea out there?”Smart From Scratch® is a hands-on, comprehensive course that enables you to develop a business idea, validate it, and determine if that idea is viable to pursue. Learn how to test whether or not there’s an audience for your business idea.All business ideas need validation, even this online course. That’s why I launched Smart from Scratch® to a select number of founding students in late 2016. The founding students helped shape the course content with their amazing feedback. Now, thanks to them, Smart From Scratch® is tested, validated, and ready to help you find your business idea!Meet Your Course InstructorHi, I’m Pat Flynn.I run several successful businesses, including Smart Passive Income, Switchpod, and Green Business Academy. Over the course of the last decade, I’ve conceived of and developed dozens of products and new businesses. I’ve both succeeded and failed, and all the while I’ve charted my progress to find what works and what doesn’t. I’ve also interviewed hundreds of other business owners to learn from their stories, which you can find on The Smart Passive Income Podcast.I’ve heard the same struggles from aspiring entrepreneurs time and again: “I don’t know how to find a business idea,” or “I don’t know if my idea will work,” or the biggest one, “I’m afraid I will fail.”I want you to learn from my successes and failures. I’ve poured these experiences into the Smart From Scratch® course to give you insight into the business strategies that truly work from to finish. I’m here to help you find your idea, to figure out if it will work, and to teach you how to fail early so that it doesn’t hurt as much.
