The Centonomy Entrepreneur is a 14-week Online Program that helps you Build a Great Business.

At Centonomy, we believe that great businesses are not solely defined by their size, industry, or popularity but by:

  • The Impact they have on the founder, team, customers, and community.
  • The Culture they create; where people work because they want to, not because they have to.
  • How they Create Wealth substantially by having the correct Structures.
  • How they constantly translate ideas into great Opportunities, products/services.

The Online Program takes you through the following:

  • Creating Structures  (making your business run without you)
  • Vision & Strategy ( Identifying where you are going & how to get there)
  • Evaluating Opportunities in your business & Marketing/Selling those opportunities
  • Creating the right culture in your business.
  • Marketing (including the use of digital media & data)
  • Managing Money in business (paying yourself, understanding income, cash flow & profit, etc.)
  • Raising Capital & Attracting Investors
  • Tax
  • Legal structures (intellectual property, business contracts, etc.)

The Experience you can expect:

  • The course facilitators are Entrepreneurs (this not an academic program)
