A message from our founder...
A message from our founder…
I’m Paul, the founder of Startup Hive and I know firsthand just how daunting running a business can be.
Over the past 14 years, I’ve started, grown and sold several successful businesses, though I’ve had my share of failures too.
I started my first business in 2009 but it felt like I spent the first year or so just learning how to run a business instead of actually working on growing it!
Sure, most of the information was available online, but finding it, making sense of it, and then applying what I learned just took up so much of my time.
Now, if you’ve operated a business before, you’ll know that time is a luxury you don’t really have as a business owner.
So, I created Startup Hive to help solve this problem.
By taking you through a clear, organised step-by-step process, you can quickly get all the most important foundations in place and focus on what you do best – making your business successful.
I’ve made the first phase completely free to access so you can bring your ideas to life, no matter what your financial situation. Though, of course, I hope you’ll find it useful enough to become a paying member in the future.
Thanks for giving us a try and good luck with your endeavours.
Paul Bryant.
Founder, Startup Hive
