FIT CHECK

Great for creators who want to develop a step-by-step product that guides users through clarity, focus, or mental resets.

STEP-BY-STEP BUSINESS STARTUP

1. Choose a format (course, live challenge, workbook)
2. Break topics into modules with actionable steps
3. Use Notion, Teachable, or ConvertKit
4. Launch with a waitlist and testimonials
5. Offer group accountability and Q&A

COMMON MISTAKES

Launching without a user onboarding guide, bundling too many tools in one product, or offering an untested structure.

LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY (LLC) CONSIDERATIONS

Offering a workbook series or structured creativity plan is a business venture — forming an LLC gives it a legal structure and allows for brand development. Launching a guided course or workbook series for creatives should be done under an LLC for intellectual property protection. Selling structured guides or transformation kits? Form your LLC to operate like a pro.
