Your First Business
Sprint it with us.
If you’ve reached the point of building your first business - solo or with a team - let’s get started.
Building is hard, and this is where we are most useful. We bring foundational mentorship and the collective strength of the Sunny Future network. Sprint it with discipline around our method.
-
A Sunny Future Sprint is a targeted 6-week intervention designed to bring method to early stage businesses, backed by our First Business course (free).
We work through your objectives without theatre. The sprint is essential for those of you who are exploring a portfolio career or launching a first business.
The ROI is instant, with tangible results each week. Six focused weeks will compress months of wandering, with our tested MVP methodology: brand foundations + AI/tech stack + commercial systems.
-
Sprints are open to all. They are built for executives navigating tighter leadership markets, corporate leaders moving into startups, people building their first business mid- or late-career, and those landing in a new country.
-
Start before it gets serious.
First-time entrepreneurs typically choose one of two paths. They join an accelerator for structure, capital, and a venture playbook; or they go solo, vibe coding and iterating through trial and error. Both have their pros and cons.
A Sunny Future Sprint sits between these extremes. We bring robust systems (brand, AI, commercial) and perspective grounded in experience. Structure without template pressure.
-
Be prepared to work hard and be challenged. You will leave ready to launch:
A sharpened X for Y positioning
Credible market sizing with sourced assumptions
Business model and relevant operational metrics
(Portfolio moves: our Portfolio of Economic Activity)
Triple MVP: Brand, Tech/AI and Commercial Systems
Staged capital strategy, either bootstrapped or investor-backed
Discreet feedback from entrepreneurs in our network
Target leads (UK/EU/MENA as relevant)
Warm introductions within the Sunny Future network
(*) If you need results faster, join our London Sprint cohort (1 week).
-
Absolutely. Sprints are designed to be expensed as outplacement.

Title: Sunny Future sprint
Hi [CEO/HR Head Name],
I would love to enroll with Sunny Future, the career transition method developed by a former HR exec and tech founder. It came highly recommended.
Sunny Future provides coaching and a network to experienced professionals navigating career transitions.
The Exec Sprint is £4,000: bespoke roadmap with pre-agreed objectives, 1-1 sessions, exclusive resources, and a powerful network. Alternatively, I will enroll for the London Sprint (£1,000): skill assessment, market positioning, CV building, 2 sessions, and job introductions.
The program aligns closely with how I want to build my next move. Let me know if this can be expensed as outplacement.
Thank you for your support,
[Your Name]

Objet: programme d’aide à la reconversion Sunny Future
Bonjour [Nom du CEO/Responsable RH],
Je souhaiterais rejoindre Sunny Future, le programme développé par un ancien dirigeant RH et vétéran de la scène tech. Il m'a été recommandé.
Sunny Future offre un coaching et des mises en relation aux professionnels expérimentés qui abordent leur transition de carrière.
Le Sprint coûte 4 000 €: séances de coach privées et accès privilégié à un réseau d’opérateurs. Alternativement, je pourrais commencer avec le Starter Sprint à 1 000 € - 2 séances de coaching, un bilan de compétences, et des recommandations de postes.
Sunny Future est vraiment ce dont j'ai besoin pour ma prochaine étape. Pourrais-je le facturer en reclassement?
Merci de ton soutien,
[Ton nom]
