This repository lays out a structured methodology for designing, launching, and operating a business solo—without co-founders or large teams. It includes frameworks for product validation, monetization paths, and minimal viable operations that emphasize leverage (automation, outsourcing, digital products). Each section provides checklists, decision criteria, and heuristics rather than rigid templates, recognizing the flexibility each individual needs. Because many solo ventures begin without funding, the methodology covers how to iterate quickly and adapt resources to revenue from early sales. It also discusses mindset, growth tracking, reinvestment strategies, and scaling to a small team when necessary. In essence, it’s a playbook guiding individuals through the typical failure points of one-person businesses with discipline, practicality, and feedback loops.
