Why Entrepreneurs Should Be Learning From Other Entrepreneurs

Teaching Startup is continuing education for entrepreneurs that actually helps grow their business

Continuing education for entrepreneurs is a tricky thing. But if you’re looking for affordable, timely advice to make you a better entrepreneur, what better way than learning from entrepreneurs who are having the same issues?

I’ve spent the better part of the last 15 years trying to simultaneously teach entrepreneurs how to do startup while also actually doing startup. I’ve done posts, podcasts, MBA-level college courses, and even founded and then sold an entrepreneur-focused startup called ExitEvent.

My latest effort is actually called Teaching Startup, named as if I’m going to do this if it kills me. Teaching Startup is a Weekly Premium Q&A Newsletter that lets entrepreneurs ask questions and get answers from experts. And by “experts,” I mean entrepreneurs who are simultaneously teaching entrepreneurs how to do startup while also actually doing startup.

As Teaching Startup rolls into the 25th issue tomorrow (35 if you count the pilot), I wanted to talk about the mission. Because the mission is why it works.
