WHAT YOU GET!
The Starting Block
An easy to use tool to help you successfully manage the entire startup process. It’s here that you’ll find the “Wicked Start” list of concrete action items to start your business. You’re time is valuable so these action items have been organized into 10 manageable steps, where we identify the meaning and relevance of each, including building a case for your idea, structuring your business, writing a business plan, funding, marketing and the nuts & bolts of launching. Once you’ve finished each action item, you simply check it off as complete.
Progress Tracking
This feature is a visual graph that tracks your progress as you complete each action item. After each item is marked ‘complete’, your progress bar moves closer to 100%. This simple yet telling graph can give you the satisfaction of seeing how much you’ve completed and how much closer you are to your goal of starting your own business.
User Community
The “Community” feature allows you to connect and communicate with Wicked Start and other early stage business owners and entrepreneurs in a private online forum. You can post questions and answers and search for information relevant to your own journey for starting a business.
Resource Center
This invaluable feature provides you with useful links to resources to help you start your business, including many businesses that we have partnered with to make Launch Pad your hub for managing this process. Whether it’s finding the right legal forms, creating a logo, locating investors, printing business cards, or identifying an email marketing partner, there will be organized, low-cost, and easy to follow links for your startup needs.
My Files
This feature allows you to manage all of your files in connection with turning your idea into a business. You can organize, upload, and download files you’ve posted, whether they’re documents, spreadsheets of presentations. It really helps to keep everything in one place for easy reference and access.
Access to planning templates
This feature provides you with key business planning templates that you can use along the way. These templates include a business plan, an investor pitch, financial spreadsheets, and a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). There will also be sample documents included as well that help illustrate how to best use them.
Reminders
This feature is an email notification to let you know when action items are coming due. This gentle reminder can provide a ‘nudge’ to help you complete your action items within the timeframe that you specify. If your schedule or timeframe changes, you always have the option of changing when items are due. You’re in control.
