Are you ready to start your own business and learn how to make it successful? In this class, you’ll brainstorm ideas for a business, learn how to select a profitable niche and plan and launch your own business! I will also be teaching you how to pitch your product/business confidently and effectively - whether to investors, customers, or even family - and to design a fully-functional professional website. This class is lots of fun but also fast-paced. Sites are build using Wix. We also use Printful and Canva in this class. Businesses launched by past students include: a leather goods online store, a website for a science fair website, made-to-order cupcakes, dog walking with an online booking form, a digital comic book, a fashion blog, a gardening blog, a personal ‘about me’ website and a resume website.
