Build & strengthen your plan

You’re in a solid place. Next, tighten costs and test one realistic growth idea before you pitch.

Bring your saved summary to a mentor

Mentoring turns this from “nice idea” into real progress. We help your child choose one target, improve it, and build confidence.

  • Pick one lever: pricing, costs, or customers.
  • Set a 7-day mission: one small action to test in the real world.
  • Turn it into evidence: use the output towards accreditation/certification.
