Over the years we have developed an out-of-the-box, scalable and frugal business approach that is more unique than rare. This, combined with our passion, experience and teaching methods, has allowed us to create courses that are suitable for both those who already have a business and those who have no business experience.
So, apart from the Pawn course, which is aimed exclusively at novices, the Queen, Rook and Horse courses are suitable for both beginners and those who have already begun their entrepreneurial adventure.
No.
No one will ever guarantee it.
In entrepreneurship there are no guarantees, it takes sweat, suffering, bitterness, empowerment but also success, joy and a lot of satisfaction!
You have to take the risk... with the advantage that you retain control over all the cards on the table ;).
In general, our courses allow you to bridge the experience gap that makes all the difference in the first years of entrepreneurship. Put another way, you will be the sole driver of your success, we will only act as a catalyst and support you in the initial phase of your adventure and, if you wish, also in the subsequent phases.
Of course! If you don't already have a business and are starting from scratch, we recommend starting with the Pawn Course.
The Regina course will then allow you to dig deeper into crucial topics for your business such as product, market, accounting, website, digital marketing, etc).
Finally, in the Torre and Cavallo courses you can respectively build your own website from scratch and get the basics to administer it and apply growth hacking tactics to bring you traffic without any investment (ie. without any marketing budget).
Both. Your choice.
We normally hold the courses in person in Lugano. But, if you can't/won't attend, we are also equipped to let you follow them via a convenient video call.
We believe that entrepreneurship is the path to self-fulfilment and should be within everyone's reach.
We therefore offer an additional 20% discount for those who are retired, students, or are, unfortunately, in a financially difficult and/or problematic phase of their lives.
This is in addition to the 10% discount we already offer (cashback) if you want to provide feedback at the end of the course.
We know what our courses are worth and we are confident that no one will ever ask for a refund.
However, on ALL our courses, after the first lesson and should you be dissatisfied, you can request a full refund of the amount paid.
Walking in the dark entrepreneurial valley is more difficult than you think.
Allow us to shine a light on your path and we will pave the way for you to realise your dreams.
