Pick a business. Start this month.

After 30+ years in software, I started building these roadmaps for friends and family who got laid off and didn't know where to start. I'm pragmatic by nature — I hate fluffy advice and I love real business. These worked for the people I care about. So I made them free.

Each roadmap is built for a specific type of business — matched to your time, your budget, and your goals. Browse above and pick the one that clicks.
Every roadmap breaks 30 days into four phases with specific daily tasks. No ambiguity. You know exactly what to do today, tomorrow, and the day after.
Every roadmap ends with a paying customer, a first gig, or a first route. That's the only milestone that matters in month one.
New roadmaps go live every few weeks. Drop your email and we'll tell you when a new path is ready — no pitch, no sequence, just the update.
