Editors Note: let us get our repetitions in. Beginners mindset.
Let’s just have summer 2025 be the summer of joke business experimentation. Whether you’re a 50-year-old first-time founder or a 15-year-old who’s never had a job, let’s jump into the same startup boat and start dash up a small franchise concept business.
this is the MOST permissionless moment in history.
10 years ago, you needed investors, cofounders, an office, and 6 months of burn just to start a startup.
not anymore:
1. you want a startup idea → go mining on reddit, app store reviews etc
2. you want customers → build an audience
3. you want a beautiful software product → learn bolt, cursor, replit, lovable etc
4. you want to charge → stripe link. done.
5. you want distribution without using your face → partner with a niche creator. their trust is your launchpad.
6. you want ops → string together GPT-4o + Claude + Gumloop/Lindy/n8n agents
7. you want an office → kitchen table + noise-canceling headphones
8. you want exceptional advisors → binge 1000 hours of podcasts + you can DM anyone on the planet
9. you want momentum → ship something small today. the rest figures itself out.
no gatekeepers. no resumes. no permission needed.
you need consistency, taste, and internet access.
the startup school is open 24/7.
enrollment is free.
but shipping is the tuition.
there are no excuses anymore.
