Taking the Leap from Employee to Entrepreneur

Coursera · Intermediate ·🚀 Entrepreneurship & Startups ·1w ago
In this course, you'll assess whether you're truly ready for entrepreneurship, shape a business idea around a problem people will pay to solve, and build the systems, pricing, and financial structure that keep your business running smoothly. You'll also gain confidence in the skills most employees never get to practice: networking genuinely, positioning a brand, handling client objections, and closing sales without pressure. What makes this course unique is that it's grounded in the real-world experience of bestselling author and entrepreneur Sam Bennett, who has spent decades helping first-time founders avoid the most common and costly mistakes. You won't get theoretical frameworks or generic advice. You'll get practical strategies like the perfect customer lifecycle, the minimum viable product test, themed workweeks, and the confident close, all delivered in the warm, candid voice of someone who has genuinely been where you're standing now. Whether you're itching to leave the 40-hour week behind, pursuing a passion, or simply not ready to retire, this course gives you the tools, mindset, and momentum to take your next step with clarity.
