Hi there,

I'm Nareen Sidhu, and I'm absolutely thrilled to introduce you to "Build a Side Hustle/Business on Your Terms," a transformative course designed to help you launch a business in a way that optimises your time and money.

Throughout my journey as a Harvard MBA graduate and Strategy Consultant at Bain & Company, I've had the privilege of working with business leaders across four continents, helping them launch new products and scale their ventures. Now, I'm excited to share that wealth of experience with you in this course.

With 30+ pages of templates and tools, we'll dive deep into the core aspects of launching a side hustle, focusing on purpose, goal-setting, efficient business planning, perfecting your pitch, and mastering financial management. This course has a total of 12 sections, bundled into 4 topics, each one carefully crafted based on my experience as a fellow side hustler, Harvard education, research, and interviews with 150+ successful side hustlers across the world.

TOPIC 1: Purpose, Goals, and Energy --> set the right intentions and foundation for success

• Find your purpose as a founder, using our Founder's Roadmap template

But we're not stopping there! I've included additional resources on Building a Board of Advisors, Getting Over the Hurdle of Not Being Able to Start, and a Complete Founder's Checklist, to ensure you have everything you need to succeed.
