Andrew created the Build Your Own Business (BYOB) Program to give people a practical pathway from idea to income. It’s a 24-week course where we walk step by step through the foundations of building a business. Everything from clarifying your idea, setting up your brand, and marketing it, to actually winning clients.
The aim is simple: by the end of the program, you’ve got a working business, paying clients, and the confidence to keep growing.

The Build Your Own Business (BYOB) Showcase is where our community comes together to share stories, ideas, and connections. It’s not just another networking event — it’s a space to hear from entrepreneurs who’ve taken their idea and built it into something real. Whether you’re just starting out or already running a business, you’ll walk away with new connections, fresh ideas, and the motivation to take your next step.
