Typical business books talk about what uber-successful people did when they started and grew multi-million dollar companies. These are interesting anecdotes but not very helpful when trying to figure out all the little details of setting up your own unique startup.

Beyond Startup Week takes a different approach. It follows five strangers who come together after meeting at a local Startup Week event and commit to supporting each other. They figure out where each business concept fits in the world and what it takes to make that first sale.

• Andres – Inventor who spends his free time building toys and gadgets that other people would probably enjoy but isn’t sure how to get into their hands.
• Dylan – Animal lover trying to figure out how to create a utopia where humans and pets come together in bougie hangouts.
• Kaya – Frustrated healthcare provider in search of a better solution using a preventative, holistic approach.
• Malik – Burnout from the tech start-up scene looking to pay the bills with contract work before deciding whether to turn it into a full-blown consulting business.
• Jade – Home chef and lover of creative cooking wants to monetize her passion but isn’t sure how to connect with food fusion fans.

Follow their journeys through the critical planning needed to start their businesses off right, and apply the learnings to your own entrepreneurial quest.
