What was the last idea you had, and what stopped you from pursuing it?
You were in the shower weren't you? You were rinsing the conditioner out of your hair and then BOOM! A great idea came to you. But just as quickly as the excitement hit you, you're suddenly filled with dread.What was the last idea you had, and what stopped you from pursuing it?
You were in the shower weren't you? You were rinsing the conditioner out of your hair and then BOOM! A great idea comes to you. But just as quickly as the excitement hit you, you're suddenly filled with dread.- You have no knowledge of where to start,
- you have no prior experience in the industry,
- you're way out of your depth and have zero confidence,
- and you don't even know the right questions to ask

What to expect from the curriculum:
Right at the beginning we'll be discussing our ideation practices, and the ideas that we're wanting to develop during the programme.
With this introductory session, you'll understand that not all ideas are good ideas, but it's good to get in the habit of keeping a note of the different ideas we have - who knows when they might come in handy!
During this session, you'll learn how to explore the market your ideas are in. What companies are trying to solve this idea? Who is the audience and how big is the opportunity? We'll think about category management where applicable, and where your idea might fit.
Here, we'll introduce you to the backbone of any idea - the business model canvas!
We'll go through each element of the canvas and start to map out where the opportunities for your ideas reside.
This part in the programme is to help you get some clarity about what you can potentially do with your idea.
At this stage of the programme, you're starting to get the lay of the land. Your idea is looking a lot clearer. Now it's time to start thinking about how we actually build this.
We'll firstly look at the operations of running such a business - what's the cost of goods if it's a product? How will we make money?
Where do you go to find out about legal requirements for running such a business? What are the non-negotiable features of the business? What platforms can you use to build a prototype?
At this point in the programme, you'll be stepping out of your comfort zone. You'll be talking to people about your idea and gathering information.
Whether you've got a prototype or not, in this week, you'll learn how to talk to customers and evaluate problem-solution fit.
We'll be sharing a range of tools that you can use to find your audience and either get direct feedback, our observe audience behaviour.
At this point, you've reached the end and the one question we have for you is how is your idea shaping up?
You'll have the opportunity to present your progress with your idea. Here, having a great idea isn't the most important thing, it's building the confidence in going through a process of elimination with your ideas that's important.
At this point, you've built up your own mini data chamber of information. You're more familiar with the different ways to explore ideas. Who knows, you might even unlock a new opportunity.

Hey, I'm Fiona!
Founder of Visualise in Motion and the resident fighter of fires.By day, I’m an event/project/operations manager who works primarily within large scale events and venues, brand activations, partnerships and strategy.
I work with brands and clients such as Printworks, Relentless Energy Drink, The V&A, Mark Ronson and Tomorrowland to develop ideas, projects and events, whilst also overseeing key business operations.
By night, I'm a Social Impact and Food Entrepreneur running Visualise in Motion alongside a DTC made to order sweet butter business called Dolce Butter.
I often think about what makes me qualified to run such a bootcamp, and the simplest reason I can give is that I am you.
There have been numerous times over the last couple of years where I've been stumped on how to develop my ideas, but the more practice I got, the more confident I became.
This has overflowed into my day job, as well as all of my side hustles. It has helped me be resourceful, and use my perceived lack of direct experience and insight to my advantage, and I want to help you do the same.

We'll start off with a weekend bootcamp to test out the material and overtime will increase the length. The question is, how long would you want to commit to such a programme? We'd love to hear your thoughts - email us on hello@visualiseinmotion.com.
Not at all, but you might find it helpful to have one, simply because throughout the whole process you'll be building your own data chamber with notes and examples that you can always refer to.
If you don't have an idea, I suggest taking an idea that already exists and perhap approach it from your own unique perspective.
The course will be taught over Zoom to begin with, and will be a combination of slides, videos, breakout rooms, quizzes and worksheets.
Our aim is to make it an interactive experience. We don't plan to talk at you for hours on end!
