Starting An Internet Media Business? Startup Business School Has It All.

I’d be willing to venture a guess that many of our visitors are self-employed search marketers that love their work and relish in the fact that pants aren’t part of their self-employed dress code. That aside, what happens when the one-person show turns into something very profitable or we decide to fragment our efforts and build a separate company focused on other possible internet media ventures? Wouldn’t it be great if we had a tool that could organize, construct, and record our new business plan? A new website has been developed that can help us do exactly this.

Startup Business School is a web based business plan creation application developed by online entrepreneur Richard Banfield, founder of Fresh Tilled Soil, Tia Carr-Williams, VP of Communications at TycoonSystems.com and IndustryPlayer.com, and Alex Fedorov, new media designer and Fresh Tilled Soil Co-Founder.

According to the website, Startup Business School “provides the knowledge and tools to succeed during the early stages by providing a step-by-step startup process and range of support services that are appropriate to the stage in the lifecycle of the new business.” This step-by-step process is a 12 step process where you create your company, then move into rapid prototyping, operations & launch, and finally marketing and ideas. Along the way there are lessons for each step. Each section has about 4 questions that you need to answer as accurately as possible to help maximize the successful planning of your future business.

Tools that are included in the Startup Business School program are a strategy creation application, a contact list feature that allows you to build and collaborate with your team and advisors, a huge database of online business advice videos for guidance along the way, a sales roadmap application, and loads of documentation on various business topics.

Best of all, Startup Business School is completely free!
