Hi, I'm Evan Kimbrell. Thanks for checking out my course.
**My courses have been featured in Forbes, CNN, Entrepreneur Magazine, BusinessInsider, BuzzFeed, Mashable, TheNextWeb, The Daily Beast, & Techcrunch**
Currently, I'm the Founder andDirector of Sprintkick, a full-service,referral-only digital agency based out of San Francisco. Over the past fouryearsI've overseen the development and launch of over 100 web and mobile apps. Clients range from two-man bootstrapping startupsto multibillion dollar Fortune 100s like Wal-Mart, Dick's Sporting Goods, andGNC.
Prior to SprintkickI worked as a VC for a new firm called Juvo Capital, based out of L.A. I spearheaded the firm's expansion into Silicon Valleyand into theConsumer Web tech category.

In the longlong ago, I was a co-founder for an educational software startup called ScholarPRO that raised a ton of money and then spectacularly blew up (in the bad way). Before it exploded like the Death Star, I went through fivetech incubators (yes, five):Tech Stars, Excelerate Labs, MassChallenge, Babson Venture Program, and Sparkseed.

Hope you enjoy my courses!

Great course with a lot of information that seems not very important first (strategy, presence, red flags, assumers, fizzling, pricing...), but if you think and hear about it, you will see that it's essential to build a working business. It's much better to understand that before starting a business and avoid a lot of errors in the long run. Thanks a lot for this informative course!

It was definitely worth every penny

By Roy Pieters on 7/15/2020

The course is really good the guy tells everything really good, the only thing is some topics are outdated therefore no 5 stars.

By Jayson Nabor on 7/8/2020

This is definitely not a course to buy in 2020. The strategies are outdated and need to be updated.

By Anonymized User on 3/26/2020

By Robo Kobo on 3/3/2020

Good so far. Not sure if there's a section on collecting payments, and how to avoid bad clients.

By Michelle Crisan on 12/20/2020

I loved it!

By Yuri Radaelli on 2/7/2020

I strongly recommend this course if you are a developer freelancer or web design team or enterpreneur who want to offer IT services. Evan is a guy with direct experience in offering digital communication tools to startups, so I found very helpful and practical the strategies and - most important - the mindset he propose and discuss in the course, covering really every aspect of what we need to know to grow faster.
