This online course wants to help entrepreneurs understand how successful startups are run
by Alessia Grunberger

Behind every great startup is a great idea. An idea that will fill a void, solve a common problem, and — of course — make money.

While launching a startup is an exciting entrepreneurial venture, too many people get wrapped up in the fantasy that they’ll attract investors or get rich quick. It’s a common pitfall, but it’s a mistake nobody can afford to make.

A successful startup requires time, tenacity, money, and above all else meticulous planning. It can be a tough journey to get started on. But with the right guidance, you can build a sustainable business.

If you’re serious about launching a startup, we’d recommend having a look at “The Serial Entrepreneur’s Guide To Setting Up A Startup” on Udemy.

The online course is taught by Mike Stemple, an entrepreneur responsible for creating and building 20 companies from scratch. His course comes with a lot of interactive material — including 36 lectures, four downloads, and four-and-a-half hours of video training. Stemple will cover everything from learning which software to use for building a website, to creating the best research strategies, to even to picking the right co-founders.

Simply taking this class won’t make you the next Elon Musk or Drew Houston. But it could definitely help put you on the right track.

The course normally costs $150, but you can enroll virtually risk-free for just $10 through January 15. If you realize it isn’t for you, you can get your money back as long as it’s within 30 days of enrollment.
