Young Entrepreneur: Interactive Business + Hobby Discussion, Pricing, Marketing

* Please feel free to use the auto-schedule feature if the available class times don't suit you! *

This class starts with an overview of the elements of a business plan and then dives into a collaborative discussion of each element.  Learners can bring specific questions about their business idea/product or just come to learn!  (Students can also submit questions via private chat and I can read them anonymously.)   This class is appropriate for any level of business knowledge and benefits from lots of different perspectives!  

Please note: This class will not teach learners exactly how to start a business, or create a business plan, rather, it's a jump start conversation!  I do offer multi-day and semester classes on crafting a business plan, a business plan Flex class, as well as 1:1 support (one time and ongoing).

This class currently has a minimum size of 1, however, class is much better with other students!  Please consider sharing with friends!  If there is just 1 learner signed up, I may reach out about an optional transfer to a section with other student(s) enrolled.  

Learners need space to wiggle and be silly.  I try to be flexible and understand that everyone learns differently.  It's also my responsibility to have a classroom that's not super distracting, as this can impact learning as well.  These classroom guidelines help us all start from the same page, and keep class flowing well!
1)  Video on or off (after verification)!  Discussions can be verbal or in *on-topic* chats.
2)  Be respectful; don't interrupt; raise your (physical or digital) hand!  Don't intentionally distract other students (e.g. putting things directly in front of the camera)
3)  Because they can be quite distracting, this class does not allow video filters, avatars, or background changes (except blur).
4)  If necessary, I will move a disruptive student to the waiting room.  If appropriate, I will let them back in for another chance to stay in class respectfully.  If this occurs and you have questions, please reach out to Support.
5)  Any racist, homophobic, body shaming, violent or inappropriate language/images will result in removal from class.  If this happens, you may email outschool@support.com with any questions.  

A few other notes:
-  Please click your meeting link 2-3 minutes early so we can start class on time!  
-  Per OS policy, if there are no students in the classroom 10 minutes after class starts, I will log off and end class.  (If you're having tech issues trying to enter the classroom, just send a message or post in the classroom, so I know you are there!)
-  If you cannot attend, please let me know at least 24 hours before class starts, so I can transfer you to a different section (when possible).  When it might not be possible: if you ask for a transfer for a multiday class the day before it starts, and your transfer will result in the class dropping below the learner minimum, I may not be able to offer a transfer.  But if I can, I will!
-  Class recordings are not automatically shared; they will be made available when possible.  Please note, new OS policy is that a learner can't watch a video until they have attended class, unless they are a verified learner.
-  Learners are encouraged to advocate for how they would like to participate.  If your learner needs adult help (e.g. adult on screen, adult answers for child or facilitates answers, adult takes notes), please let me know in advance per OS parent guidance.
