Notes from Chris

Episode 2418
Today on the podcast we have Alex, an engineer from Alberta, Canada who's keen to start his own side hustle but is short on time. He came across the concept of business boot camps on our show and found the idea of fully setting up a side hustle within a few days quite appealing. The idea of concentrated, rapid business setup is becoming more and more popular, especially among professionals who can't dedicate a lot of time to their side hustle. I’m not sure I have a great recommendation for Alex, but I’ll do my best to be helpful.

"Hello, thanks for taking my call. My name is Alex, and I'm an engineer from Edmonton, Alberta. I've always been interested in entrepreneurship, and I've been toying with the idea of starting my own side hustle. But between a demanding job and family obligations, finding time to set everything up has been a challenge. I’ve thought of something that could be the perfect solution: a small business bootcamp where people work online to do everything they need within a few short days, or maybe a number of evenings over the course of two weeks. The idea of getting everything ready at once is appealing. But now I’m wondering—does this exist? Can you recommend a good boot camp that I could explore?"
