Learn to communicate your game-changing vision in just one sentence!

Do you have an idea for a startup? Maybe you’ve read some books, taken some courses. Maybe you even have a minimum viable product and some financial projections. But when you explain your idea to family and friends you’re not sure if they’re actually getting it.

It can be a struggle to distill your idea into a succinct statement that gets people’s attention and that they can easily understand. So, how do you communicate your game-changing vision in just one sentence?

The Lean Innovator, Dan Casas-Murray, will be presenting his next round of Lean Innovator workshop series to help founders refine their product or service offering so that they can put it in a way that is both compelling and cogent.

About the Lean Innovator Series

The Lean Innovator Series is a foundation and launchpad for you to feel confident in reaching out and securing customers and investment. They will do this by supporting you in getting clear on your messaging, story, and collecting evidence to verify the various aspects of your business model.

The Lean Innovator Series will run for seven weeks on Zoom, beginning on August 29 and ending on October 13 with 2 sessions per week;

  • Mondays 11:30 am to 1:00 pm
  • Thursdays 11:30 am to 1:00 pm

At the end of this course you will have a product statement, a one minute pitch, and  a five minute pitch deck that you can use to tell people about your startup.

The Lean Innovator Series is a cohort-based course where you will get peer support with other founders, the opportunity to practice with each other, and hold each other accountable.
