•Online💡 How to Get Your First Pilot Users & Customers
Online🌟 Register on https://luma.com/se6zr87u to receive your Zoom link.
​
​​​​​You’ve built something promising but getting those first yeses feels impossible. People are curious, but hesitant. They say “sounds great!” and then disappear.​This masterclass, by bMightie founder and GTM expert Sylvia, unpacks how to break through early-market resistance with creative, human, and low-cost ways to win trust fast, even as a brand-new startup.
​We’ll share examples of how early-stage founders turned cold leads into warm believers, reframed pilots as opportunities, and used smart positioning to make “testers” feel like insiders.
​💡 What You’ll Learn
- ​The psychology of early trust why people hesitate, and how to dissolve that friction
- ​How to turn your pilot into an irresistible win-win for early customers
- ​Simple outreach ideas that cut through skepticism
- ​How to amplify your minimal credibility
​🧠Why It Matters
​Getting your first customers is not about complex, highly optimised funnels. It’s about engineering belief. Before people buy your product, they buy your story, energy, and promise.​When you learn to lower the right barriers, social, emotional, and cognitive, you’ll unlock traction faster than founders still trying to “look bigger.”

Online🌟 Register on https://luma.com/fi7jts6w to receive your Zoom link.
​
​Finding the right technical co-founder is one of the hardest and most defining moves a founder can make. Do you wait until your product vision is ready? Build alone? Outsource? Or find a partner who believes in the mission as much as you do?​In this candid fireside chat, SkillsRobin founder Lisa shares with interviewer Jack, CTO of Kumo Study, her experiences of helping founders search for and ultimately winning over technical collaborators.
​Tune in for the missteps, mindset shifts, and practical strategies that helped the founders bridge the gap between vision and attracting the talent for execution.
​💡 You’ll Hear About
- ​How to spot and appeal to the right kind of technical partner for your stage
- How to interview for technical collaborators
- ​How to pitch your vision so it excites builders, even before traction
- ​When to partner, when to hire, and when to wait
- ​Common red flags and lessons learned from the early journey
​🧠Why This Matters
​
A technical co-founder or collaborator isn’t just a coder, they’re a creative counterpart who amplifies your ideas and brings them to life. This conversation will help you reframe the search from “finding someone to build for you” to “building with someone who believes in you.”

•Online🌟Conversion Rate Optimisation on a Budget
Online🌟 Register on https://luma.com/emq06rxy to receive your Zoom link.
​
​​​​​​When you’re bootstrapping, you don’t need more traffic, you need more traction from the traffic you already get.​This masterclass shows you how to find and fix the silent leaks in your customer journey, the drop-offs, hesitations, and missed moments that quietly kill sales, and how to boost conversions without spending on new tools, agencies, or ads.
​You’ll learn how to use founder-friendly methods (like real conversations, message testing, and tiny UX tweaks) to turn browsers into buyers and skeptics into sign-ups, all using insights you can gather in a single afternoon.
​🚀 What You’ll Learn
- ​How to diagnose where and why people drop off, even without analytics tools
- ​Quick-win messaging and offer tweaks that instantly increase conversions
- ​The “trust layer” fixes that make people feel safe to buy from a small brand
- ​Low-cost experiments that deliver compounding gains over time
​
🧠Why It Matters
​You don’t need a funnel rebuild, you need sharper clarity. Most founders try to grow by adding more, but true traction comes from removing friction.​Learn how to make every impression count and turn what you already have into the engine that funds your next stage of growth.
