SUMMARY:From Idea to Business: First Steps [workshop]
DESCRIPTION:From Idea to Business: First Steps\nMost innovators end up pitching an idea\, not a business. The idea is often excellent. But an idea is not something a customer can buy\, an investor can back\, or a partner can rely on – and the gap between the two is where most good ideas quietly stall. Closing that gap is not one big leap. It is a handful of first steps\, taken in the right order. \nThis 90-minute workshop is for innovators and early-stage founders who have an idea and are trying to figure out those first practical steps. It is hands-on. You will leave with your own answers written down\, not a set of slides. \nWhat we will cover\n\nUnderstanding what you want\, and how that shapes the business (30 mins)\nYour personal goals dictate the form your business should take. Licensing\, lifestyle business\, high-growth venture\, or something else – each suits a different founder. Get this wrong and you will spend years building something you do not want.\n\nYour secret sauce: intellectual property and your unique selling proposition\n\nWhat do you actually own\, and why would a customer choose you over the alternative? Two questions every founder gets asked and few can answer clearly.\n\nCustomers\, investors and the priority actions\n\nWho needs to say yes\, in what order\, and what does each of them need to see before they will?\n\nBringing it together: your 100 day plan\n\nThe difference between momentum and busyness is a plan. You will build the first one hundred days of yours.\n\nWho should come \n\nInnovators\, technical founders and anyone with an idea they are serious about. No business background assumed. No jargon\, no consultant-speak.\n\nDetails \nThursday 20 August 2026\, 10:00am to 11:30am | Saltwater\, Busselton | Free to attend.
