I wish they have enough documents to download so I can use later

The marketing aspects of the course. What is your product, solving or needing the product, target audience, what does it do, and does it work?. I love a good worksheet because it helps to put your ideas and goals into perspective.

By Erkeinstia Juliette Florexil on 5/14/2025

In my opinion, this course is for people who have zero knowledge about business, entrepreneurship and this is not for people who to learn how to formulate their own products. But the last two sections were very important to me.

By Imelda Thome'-Becker on 5/3/2024

Amazing and fantastic - so much one needs to consider when starting out with a new idea - product or creation. Am loving all the informatoin Nathan imparts - thank you kindly - this is giving me the hope and tools to do it "right" and pursue my dream at same time providing me with a holistic approach to my idea/products I wish to create.

It is well-informed for the person who have some ideas about starting a cosmetic business, and dig-deep into insights, focused on Western area. Those who are from Eastern still get some ideas but have to adapt some topics, such as recommended manufacturers.

By Jessie Ratulowski on 1/11/2024

A LOT of great information is packed into this course! I now have a better understanding of how to get my products in retail and what I need to do to better my products to get to that point as well as a good foundation for marketing and pricing products for retail and wholesale. Can't wait to get my business back on its feet!
