Evaluate Your New Business Idea

Every successful business starts with an idea. Got one you may want to pursue? We’ll help you figure out if it’s viable, and whether it’s a good fit for you. That way you’ll get off to the right start, and increase your chances of reaching your goals.

Assess Your Startup Idea - Online, On-Demand Course

Every founder faces the same decision – is my idea worth pursuing? To answer that question, you need two things – a way to get feedback on your idea and a framework for making your decision. This course provides both, using a methodology recommended by professional investors like Kleiner Perkins, TechStars and the MIT Enterprise Forum.

  • Learn to assess your startup idea
  • Step-by-step guidance
  • Get expert tips and example documents
  • Start anytime, go at your own pace

Assess Your Idea - Private Coaching Session

Is your idea good enough to turn into a business? Sadly, your mom’s approval isn’t enough. Instead, get an objective reality check from an UpStart coach. First, we’ll help you determine if there’s an attractive market, a real customer need, and a solid business model. Then, you’ll learn whether the idea is a fit with your personal goals, passion, skills and resources. After that, you can go make mom proud.

“UpStart coaches aren’t just consultants – they are mentors, who truly care. They helped me realized I needed to say “no” to some ideas, and narrow my focus. Now my business is booming.”
