Got a question? We’ve got it covered.
Is this course just for online businesses?
Not at all. This course will help you find clarity and take the next step no matter what your idea is. Whether it's a shop, service or product, this will give you that clear path to getting your startup off the ground.
I don't have a clear idea to work with. Is that a problem?
No. We're confident modules 1 & 2 will help to unlock your passion and creativity and narrow down any ideas you may have. Talking with other students and hearing their stories will no doubt spark ideas. Two of our past students who'd never met before ended up co-founding an idea together!
What if I don’t get the time to finish the course?
You will get lifetime access to the course and materials and so feel free to work at your own pace. Enrolment to the program also includes a year’s access to the online community. As long as you’re a member you’ll get access to the materials whenever you want.
How do I connect with other students?
We have set up a private group which is open 24-7 and encourage members to introduce themselves, share their work and ask for help.
Is this program something I can manage alongside a full time job?
We get asked this a lot. 90% of the 1000+ students who have come through the course manage successful careers alongside their side hustle. We’ve worked hard to ensure that the classes can be completed with the busiest of schedules. A level of commitment is required though, with the approach we take to building a business you’ll launch something faster than if you go it alone.
Will I have access to advice from Laurence & Carlos?
Carlos & Laurence will always be available in the group and you an even book a free office hours mentoring slot with them.
What if someone steals my idea?
The program is hosted on our private community that’s only accessible to happy startup members. The best part of the course is that everyone shares their progress, asks for help and gets feedback and love from fellow students. It’s like a small startup family. Our community is all about collaboration, not competition. It's time to embrace this new mindset – people are here to support, not harm, you.
What happens after the course is finished?
Don't worry you won't be left on your own! This offer includes one year's membership to The Happy Startup School community where you'll get access to practical resources and a tribe of collaborators to keep the momentum going.
What’s your refund policy?
