Build Something That's Yours. A Business. A Legacy. A Life on Your Terms.
You have always been the one who thinks bigger. When you see a project, you do not just see the work. You see the opportunity. You see what could be built, who could be hired, how the whole thing could grow.
The Entrepreneurial Owner track is built for people like you. People who want to do more than work in the trades. People who want to own the company. Lead the team. Build something that lasts.
This is not a theory class. This is a structured, 3-year path from tradesperson to business owner, taught by people who have done exactly what you want to do.
The skilled trades are facing a massive leadership gap. Thousands of business owners are retiring every year, and there is no one trained to take their place. The demand for skilled trade services is not slowing down. It is accelerating.
But knowing a trade is not the same as knowing how to run a business. Most trade professionals never receive formal training in leadership, finance, marketing, or operations. They figure it out on the fly, or they never figure it out at all.
That is the gap the SOE Entrepreneurial Owner track was built to fill. We give you every skill you need to launch, grow, and lead a trades business, and we do it in 3 years, not a lifetime of trial and error.
Legal structure, licensing, insurance, and the fundamentals of launching a trades company from the ground up.
Pricing, estimating, cash flow management, profit and loss statements, and the money skills that keep businesses alive.
Recruiting, hiring, training, and retaining top talent. Build a team that runs without you in the room.
Generate leads, close deals, build your brand, and create a marketing engine that drives consistent revenue.
Create repeatable processes, manage production, and build the systems that turn a job into a scalable company.
Protect what you build. Insurance, contracts, compliance, and the strategies that keep your business safe.
Access your full curriculum anytime, anywhere. Daily micro-lessons, progress tracking, mentor connection, and community forums, all from your phone.
