You’ve got an idea for a purpose-driven business.
You’re buzzing with energy and your idea’s been keeping you up at night.
But it’s just not happening quick enough.
Things keep coming up that slow you down.
It ought to be easier to bring a good idea to life.
That’s what Good Hustle is all about.
~
Life is too short to give your energy and skills to a company or work life, that at best bores you and at worst violates all that you stand for.
Good Hustle is for passionate, ambitious and future focussed people with big hearts and sharp intellects.
You are the future makers, the community builders, the good hustlers!
Now is the time to empower yourself with a flexible lifestyle and purpose-driven business; to use your smarts, skills and creativity to create a positive impact in the world, you'd be proud to tell your grandkids about.
You could go it alone, but why would you want to? Trying to figure things out by yourself is slow and you'll likely make costly mistakes.
We'll save you time, money and frustration as we help you organize your thoughts into a business model with thoughtful design for a product or service your customers will love, that generates profit and creates REAL change on the issue area you are seeking to impact.
Give Your Good Idea The Time and Energy it Deserves
There are two ways you invest in your dream... financially and with your time: getting focused, making a plan and doing the work!
Let's talk cash first.
Good Hustle is $749USD.
But if you are tight on cash book in with the payment plan - 4 x monthly payments of $200USD
Time-wise, you'll want to give yourself at least 3-6 hours a week to watch the videos, complete worksheets and connect with your peer learning group.
Of course the more work you put in, the more you get out of it. You may find that when passion and purpose collide, time dissolves, you get in the flow and you end up investing two or three times the suggested time commitment. We'd call that a good hustle ;)

There has never been a better time to start a business that does good.
We see this all around us from consumers wanting to shop their values, graduates demanding purpose-driven work, the rise of social enterprise and the increasing interest in impact investment.
But what does it really take to design and launch a social enterprise?
With decades of experience working in the social startup sector, we believe there are:
3 KEY FACTORS TO SUCCESS:

There has never been a better time to start a business that does good!
We see this all around us from consumers wanting to shop their values; graduates demanding more purpose-driven work; the rise of social enterprise and the increasing interest in impact investment.
But what does it really take to design and launch a social enterprise?
With decades of experience working in the social startup sector we believe there are:
3 KEY FACTORS TO SUCCESS:
1. Learn from those who have walked before you.
Great mentors and trusted teachers are essential on the road less traveled. We hear this all the time, including recently at the #StartingGood Summit where both Mark Brand and Holly Ransom talked about how vital it is to have great teachers and mentors in your corner to support you along the way.
The teaching entrepreneurs you'll learn from in this program are all experts in their niche. They'll share strategies and tactics to help you avoid common mistakes that DIYers make and set you up for success!
2. Know Your "Why".
You need to be 100% clear on why you do what you do. The 'How' and 'What' can be learned (and we'll walk you through it step by step) but your "Why" is unique to you: it will come from within and it will light the way for as long as you are out there hustlin' for good.
3. Courage to start and discipline to keep going.
Let's be clear, whoever said: "Do what you love, and you'll never work a day in your life" probably wasn't out there running a social enterprise and trying to change the world.
Some days the good hustle will make your heart burst with joy. Other days it will make your heart break. And so we have included lessons on mindset, mindfulness, and self-care to help you keep your head in the game.
What is the Good Hustle really about?
✓ Live A Values-Aligned Life
You want the freedom to create a life and business that is aligned with your values. Yes!! It is time. The world of work is changing and never before has it been so easy (and urgent) to use your skills to create a positive impact in the world through starting your own business.
✓ Turn Your Idea Into A Real Business Plan
The world is abundant in good ideas.
What really counts is your ability to bring the idea to life.
The difference between an entrepreneur and someone with a good idea is ACTION.
We'll help you get your idea out of your head and create an actionable plan for a thriving business that creates meaningful change.
✓ Get The Support And Guidance You Need To Succeed
You could go it alone, but why would you want to?
Trying to figure things out by yourself is slow, and you'll make costly mistakes.
We'll save you time, money and frustration as we help you organize your thoughts into a business model with thoughtful design for a product or service your customers will love. Generates profit and create REAL change on the issue area you are seeking to impact.
It is taught 100% online and runs for 10 weeks. You get 5 modules, 14 video lessons, action focussed worksheets, assigned peer learning pods, and 3 x live group calls (which will be recorded)

SHIFT
At Good Hustle we want to shift the gender investment gap, the underrepresentation of females in leadership roles, while helping build the impact businesses of the future.
We now know that women develop more profitable ventures than their male counterparts [1]. While there are increasing numbers of female-founded startups and attention on gender equality, there is much more room for women to lead change in social innovation.
Which is why we set to bring together female founders, design ideas and impact in their own safe space, and ultimately build their community.
Working with leading women in social enterprise to teach and inspire participants, we strive to help launch more successful female-led social enterprises, increase the confidence and skills of hundreds of potential entrepreneurs, and profile inspiring success stories as well as emerging innovators.
So we created SHIFT, a 10 week online social enterprise design course for female founders.
Do you want to be part of the next generation of successful female founded social enterprises?
