📣 New: one onboarding session, every week
I want to meet new members earlier, not months after you join. Right now a lot of people join the paid tiers and figure things out on their own. That's slower for you and it means I don't get to know you until you've already won a competition or posted in the Vault a few times. Further our Afternoon and High Tea calls 🫖 High Tea 9: The Graph the first bit of each call has been ALOT of intros and I think that eats away valuable time (not that getting to know you is not valuable) that members who have been around for a while look forward to during our live sessions. So starting this week, every new VIP and Premium member gets a standing invite to a short session with me and the mods. Calendar · Clief Notes 🕑 Wednesdays, 2pm 🎯 Open to new VIP and Premium members We'll cover: 🔑 Getting into Discord 🧭 Finding your way around 🤝 Getting the most out of other members 🏆 How to win the competitions ❓ Quick questions at the end (and feedback on what you really want out of value and such, helps me decicde if I need to add or change anything in the community) 30 minutes. One goal: you walk out knowing the community and I know your name.

Where are the skools, youtubes,.... for entrepreneurs (not for the consultants)
hm... i am wondering. is it so early in this process of using AI? in this community - and i just joined another one and see they are mainly focused on the consultants (i call it here like that for that purpose) - we are many entrepreneurs, compared to the ones consulting them. i mean: programmers and marketing people ... if i say consultants. here we are also some that are not within that group. i guess because Jake Van Clief is working with whats there already for all of us - the folder and files. so while everyone is building for us, the entrepreneurs that need these consultants - something that we can use, like some sort of SaaS, we skip that part and go directly to the root and the future. so i am wondering. are there even any platforms out there that train the non technical entrepreneurs? EDIT: because of the comments of @Mira Bradshaw and @Bas Rosario because i am not sure if i got it right what Bas understood i was saying. so i probably was not clear enough and try to correct myself. Bas, you seem to have understood that i struggle on the business part. to clarify that: i was struggling till 30th of June. that was a tipping point in a good way. i was struggling because the business enviroment was and is a serious challenge here in Europe (last 3 years with sun rays again since january, so its getting better). if i understand you right Bas, you are talking about entrepreneurs that are in any industry BUT marketing, bookkeeping and programming but need all these skills, simply as part of any business and underestimate how important these areas are - i couldn´t agree more and that something i am observing as well since years with friends and business partners. Mira, you got my point on the spot, with the underlying topic of the gap that Bas described. EDIT again since the second half of the copy got lost 🤦‍♀️ its not that i am seeking something. but now with Bas` comment i came to one more insight.
Building the construction crew who build bakeries
I've been enjoying my ICM builds and systems. They are living and breathing and battle-tested. Now I've hit the point where I want to scale and expand them more than I practically can. The limiting factor? Me and my taste. My taste... well there's plenty of posts in here that will give you a pretty good indication of it. Human in the loop. Augment that human at every turn rather than cutting them out. My judgement where it matters. Guardrails and governance and stakes considered from the outset - as @Gabriel Azoulay put it, build the refusal and verification first and the rest will follow. (Yes, I've mangled it, it's not a quote, but the sentiment is there nonetheless). And in the middle of all of this, I've had a few ideas that have come in together. @Curtis Hays has agents in his system who sort requirements and building within his system. @Ari Evergreen has been inspiring me to think about where model vs model loops could play a piece in this picture to actually move things further along with my taste still driving all of the outcomes. And somehow this mashed up together into the following. @Bas Rosario taught us about how ICM was like baking a cake. And that moving from a workflow to a workspace was going from having a system that baked a cake to building a bakery. I can bake cakes. I have not one but two working bakeries. Now I need a construction crew. Not any construction crew - ones who know my bakeries and my taste and follow those to the letter. They don't suggest things that aren't compatible with my industrial grade ovens. They know what is and isn't compatible with my delicate equipment. They understand that in my bakeries, my rules govern; and they honour and enforce that. Enter a new workspace where tools are made and bakeries are built. If you want to see them, glimpses of what these look like are already present in the week 8 competition builds - Chalky PRD (now 01 Chalky) and Architectural Thinking Partner (now 02 ATP).
