The Business School
For People Who Already Run A Business.

Better Business Academy is Launch Industries' upcoming self-paced curriculum for founders, operators, and career-changers who want to actually understand how a small business runs. Built on the playbooks our consulting team uses with clients, condensed into a format you can take on your own schedule.

We're in active build. Drop your email and we'll let you know when enrollment opens, plus give waitlist members first access to early-bird pricing.

Coming soon. Join the waitlist below.

What you'll learn

The curriculum is being finalized. Here's the shape it's taking.

How a small business actually runs
P&L mechanics, cash flow, the math behind pricing, and the boring back-office rhythm that keeps a business alive.
Building a brand people remember
Voice, visual system, messaging hierarchy, and how to spot when your branding is fighting against your business model.
Marketing without burning cash
Channel selection, paid vs. organic tradeoffs, content cadence, and what to measure (versus what every guru tells you to measure).
Hiring your first real team
Job descriptions, structured interviews, offer mechanics, and the manager habits that make those hires stick.
Negotiating with vendors, banks, and landlords
How to read a contract, when to push back, and what concessions actually matter when the other side has more practice than you do.
Knowing when to scale and when not to
Reading the signals that say 'grow now' versus 'fix the foundation first,' and the cost of getting that call wrong.

Who it's for

We're building this for the people who keep telling us they wish a program like this existed.

Founders in years 1-3

You're past launch but the wheels are still wobbling. You want to fix that without taking on debt or a co-founder.

Operators at small companies

You're running ops for a 5-50 person business and want a fuller picture of how the rest of the engine works.

Career-changers entering business

You came from a different field and need to build the foundational business literacy fast, without a two-year MBA.

Common questions

Better Business Academy FAQ

What does Better Business Academy cost?

Pricing is being finalized. Expect a tier-based structure (one-time vs. cohort vs. ongoing) with a free preview module and a payment plan option. Members of the waitlist get first crack at early-bird pricing.

Is this live, self-paced, or both?

A blend. Core curriculum is self-paced video plus written workbooks. Live components are monthly office hours and quarterly cohort calls. Most of the work happens on your schedule.

How long is the program?

Designed as a 12-week core curriculum that you can take faster or slower. Some members extend across 6 months. Self-paced means self-paced.

Will I get one-on-one help?

Yes! All cohort participants will have 1:1 live sessions with one of the Cohort Leads.

When will it open?

We're targeting early 2027. Waitlist members will get a heads-up at least 30 days before public enrollment.

Want In When We Open?
