Entrepreneurs
can’t be taught
 (but they’re expert doers)




   a flicker of an idea from
You can’t teach
           entrepreneurs


They can’t sit still   They’re non-conformist




They prefer action     They think different
But everyone’s trying to
     “teach them”



 classroom   Books & Blogs   videos
Why we think it makes sense:
The Concept of Applied Learning



   Learn        Plan          Act


  (that’s just how its always been)
Startup Reality: Iterative doing




  Act           Learn         Plan(b,c,d...)


(which is actually how its always been)
It’s like riding a bike.
You don’t study it.
You don’t read
about it.

You just peddle
(and hold on tight.)
Collective Action:
   StartupPlays.com helps you
    Cheat the Learning Curve



The actual plan I use
for content marketing

Proven Plan                Act       Learn   (Refine)


          start with a proven plan from
      entrepreneurs who’ve done it before
It’s about how you start.
            Applied         Iterative     Collective
           Learning           Doing        Action
                Learn         Act           Plan
can’t sit still
takes too long Plan          Learn           Act    start with a
                 Act         Plan           Learn   proven plan
                  reinventing the wheel
                  too much to learn


             start with a proven plan from
         entrepreneurs who’ve done it before
Just like riding
a bike.
You can’t be taught.

Start peddling on the right foot.
(with some help from people who’ve
          done it before)
