A free live training once a month, planning tools and our newsletter. This is where most people meet us.
6 working documents for the 6 things every solo business has to get right, $199 each or $849 for all 6.

Evening Salons in cities, an annual Summit and small Retreats for solo founders.
Our readers are mid-career professionals who turn what they know into a one-person business: consultants, advisors, fractional leads and specialists who sell a service. There are 3 groups we serve.
The largest group. They want to leave on a plan, with an offer and a first client lined up before they resign.
They have income and want a business: a clear niche, a repeatable offer and clients who find them.
They left a job to start something, and they want it to start paying before their savings run out.
These figures describe independent workers and one-person businesses across the US.
independents earned more than $100K in 2025, up nearly 19% from 2024.
Nearly this share of independents plan to stay on this path or grow their business.
Our readers open business bank accounts, pick accounting and legal help, buy insurance and choose software while they work with us.
Every reader is building a service business from a career they already have, so your message reaches people it applies to.
