(Founder & CEO of Cheeky Scientist)
Time: Oct 12th (Saturday), 2013, 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM
Place: Maxwell-Dworkin G125, Harvard University

<Introduction>
Isaiah’s Bridge to Business seminar will show you how to transition from academia, or your current career track, into a highly successful entrepreneurial career track with many options. The core message of this seminar is that all successful startups follow the same "3P" model of development: finding a Purpose, building a Platform, and launching Product. This seminar includes specific information on how to launch your first online product, how to start a successful consulting service, and how to form a business partnership, as well as how to get face-to-face with startup company decision-makers. We will cover cutting-edge sales and marketing topics like brand strategy, sales prevention, viral spinning, identity targeting, capital converting, impact planning, gifting, community building, and client highlighting. Finally, we will show you how each of these topics fit into our 3P model of startup development.
