Problem Frameworks

Validate the Problem

This module shows you how to ruthlessly validate if a real, monetizable problem exists before building. You'll learn how to separate critical pain from background noise and gather evidence that a market will pay for a better solution.

Problem Impact Analysis

This module shows you how to test whether solving your problem would create enough measurable impact to be worth building. You'll quantify shifts in behavior, spending, and value perception — before you commit resources.

Investor Update

This module teaches you how to structure investor updates that build trust, unlock help, and position your startup for the next raise — even when things aren't perfect.

Startup Value Chain

This module shows you how to map the full arc of the problem you're solving — from origin to resolution — and identify where your startup creates the most leverage in that chain.

Startup Founder Tribe

This module shows you how to build a founder support system that drives growth. You'll learn when and how to use mentors, coaches, advisors, and peers to unlock insight, confidence, and leverage.

Solution First Glance

This module teaches you how to pressure test your solution idea before committing resources. You'll clarify the problem-to-solution connection, surface deal-breaker assumptions, and stress test execution reality.
