  • Nate G.Founder

    3 weeks agoFinished

    I raised my prices in week two, and the course paid for itself within a month. Claire does not let a neat spreadsheet hide a guess from you.

  • Chloe M.Account executive

    2 months agoFinished

    It changed how I prepare for any conversation about money. I walked into my salary review with a number, and I walked out with it.

  • Hannah O.Marketing lead

    4 months agoFinished

    Short lessons, real homework and a project that somebody reads and answers. I have not found that on any other course I have paid for.

  • Zara H.Founder

    3 months agoFinished

    I used what I built in module three in a real investor meeting last spring. Nobody found a hole in it, and I knew where the holes would have been, because the course had made me dig every one of them myself first. We closed the round in June, and two of the investors asked which consultancy had built our model. I had built it myself, at my kitchen table.

  • Raj K.Bakery owner

    1 month agoFinished

    Useful, but it assumes a software business. I run a bakery, so I translated half of the examples into flour, rent and staff hours.

  • Steve W.Sales lead

    2 months agoFinished

    A lot of theory for a course sold as practical. The second half is better than the first, and it is where the exercises and the project start.
