Getting Started

Getting Started in 10 Minutes

Welcome! This quick-start guide will help you get oriented, start learning, and know exactly where to go for help. You’ll be up and running faster than most founders can say “MVP.”

1. Log In → Dashboard

Log in to your account, then head to your Dashboard — it’s your command center for everything on the platform.

• Bookmark: /dashboard for one-click access next time.
• Use it on any smart device — the whole platform is fully responsive.

2. Confirm Your Plan

Not sure what you have access to? Your Dashboard shows which program you’re in — Incubator or Accelerator.

• Free trial? You’ll have the first 5–6 lessons unlocked.
• Your progress automatically carries over if you upgrade later.

3. Start Your First Lesson

Each lesson includes reading, examples, and assignments designed to move you forward quickly.

• Incubator: Priming Your Mind for Idea Validation
• Accelerator: Week 01 – Administrative Organization
• Click Mark Complete at the bottom of each lesson to advance your progress bar.

4. Explore the Resource Library

Visit the Resource Library for curated tools, articles, and guides to supercharge your startup’s growth.

• Search, skim the category you need today, and save pages via bookmarks or Pocket.
• Freemium members: see the first half of each page.
• Paid members: unlock the full page and all linked resources.

5. Ask Smart Questions in the Forums

The forums are your go-to support hub — and where collective learning happens.

• Use this template when posting:
  Goal → Context → What I Tried → Blocker → Links / Screenshots
• Expect a reply within 1 business day (Mon–Fri).

6. Need Momentum? Book Mentoring

Mentoring is available to program members who want faster progress and accountability.

• Weekly or bi-weekly sessions — $100 each.
• Rescheduling rules apply. No refunds, but credits may be issued per policy.
• To join, you must be enrolled in the Incubator or Accelerator.

Pro Tip: Time-box your learning sessions and act the same day. Capture your next steps at the end of every lesson for compound progress.
