Without this foundation, we are likely going to focus in the wrong areas of the business and will become inefficient. Maximizing every dollar is crucial for us to keep the business growing and keeping up with a continuing evolving market.

The course is broken down into six sections:

- Building Your Team

- Business Model

- Strategy

- Cost / Risk

- Execution

Whether you are starting a brick/mortar restaurant or are launching a simple online retail business, this course will give you the necessary tools/resources to minimize efforts and maximize results.

After each lesson of the course, take notes and complete each corresponding page of the playbook.

This is meant to be a starting place to get you pointed in the right direction. The goal of this playbook is not to answer with a few words, but to truly dive into the subject, explore how these topics can improve your business and act upon the initial question. With each section, ask yourself, "How can I put this to use and learn more to help my business succeed?"

I have noticed that Dreamers learn, but do not use their knowledge. Achievers learn and use the knowledge to build great things.
