4weekstartup Com - Coaching Bootstrapping Entrepreneurs to Product Market Fit
Sep 2013 — Present
Make Your Own Mistakes, Learn From Mine!\" I founded Agile Entrepreneurs (AE) as a collaborative network of founders of hi-tech product startups. AE is a trusted environment for them to share their mistakes & lessons learned with their fellow entrepreneurs, where I - Organize and moderate collaboration among 150 startup founders to resolve critical business issues- Facilitate shared learning via status meetings (Founder Scrum), lessons (Learn by Osmosis), board meetings (strategic timeout), legal clinics, resource sharing & online tools- Coach early-stage startups to help them get product validation in a week, traction in a month and product/market fit in as little as a quarter- Teach (through seminars & workshops) the 4-Week Startup (4WS) method to MVP - turning infinitely vast vision into high quality, low cost, MVP in the shortest time with limited resources. I created the 4WeekStartup (4WS) program to help entrepreneurs (\"Founder Core\"), where I (a) coach them 1-on-1 on bootstrapping, with the goal: 7 days to user/customer Validation, 4 weeks to Traction, and as little as 3 months to Product/Market Fit;(b) provide them access to mentoring from successful bootstrapping entrepreneurs (\"Useful Role Models\") running profitable startups; and (c) help them build virtual teams of curated & founder-recommended shared resources that are either FREE (\"Inner Circle\" of Love) or paid (\"Outer Orbit\" of Money) on-demand professionals with maximum productivity/cost ratio. The Hire an Entrepreneur (HaE) program at Agile Entrepreneurs lets bootstrapping entrepreneurs manage their cash flow needs on their terms by connecting them with local employers & fellow agile entrepreneurs- 4WeekStartup, 4WS, 4Week Startup Bootstrapper, 4WS Bootstrapper, 4WeekStartup.Guru, HireAnEntrepreneur.com are all copyrighted names and property of Agile Entrepreneurs LLC
