Curriculum
Get a look at what's inside
We know every business is different, and there’s no magic checklist or step-by-step guide to guarantee success.
Think of this as your daily plan of attack. Every day, you’ll know exactly what to focus on, how to take action, and how to move your idea forward.
This isn’t a course. It’s a blueprint designed to push you to do the hard things: building an MVP, testing it, launching, and getting real feedback—from both the community and the outside world.
Everything you need to build a successful business,
fast:

Testimonials
Don't take our word for it...
The Starter Story Academy is focused on
outcomes,
and our members have seen insane results.
Here's what quite a lot of them had to say.
Wow. In just 15 months, I went from generating $1.5k to hitting $3k this month, and on track for $5k.
Having a supportive community (Starter Story) that normalizes success and growth was key.
I set a goal to generate $10K/mo.
Just 30 days later, I reached my goal, earning $10,047 in revenue!
Feeling abundant - earning money from complete strangers on the internet never gets old.
Finally crossed 100k ARR on my SaaS project. The accelerator (and deep work) was a huge part of making daily progress.
Wow. I set a goal to hit $40K in revenue this month, and I’m closing it out at $56K. Spent my deep work hours prospecting, writing proposals, and pitching. Man, I’m tired but it was so worth it.

That was ace. Feel like I've had the most unusual workout over the last month. Wouldn't have got here without deep focus. First month into Starter Story has been a game changer in how i approach getting sh*t done.
I achieved my goal of launching. And I've never come this close. Deep work feels like it's a part of how I operate now. And I love it. I would wake up every morning at 4am, log into starter story and get my deep work in, I hit the gym at 6am PST, and I've already won the day no matter what happens after that. Grateful.

I made more progress in the last 35 days than in 35 years prior. I went from having 100 ideas and 0 execution, to 1 idea and 100% ship fast mentality. I owe it all to a few moments of encouragement that I never got before, not for the lack of skill, but for the lack of trying. Don't wait. Start tonight. LFG!!!

This got me moving forward on things I wish I started 3-4 months ago. Thank you!
I don't think I ever would have taken the first step without Starter Story.
Joined Starter Story last week and I love how supportive they are! These guys are building something special and I'm all in.

Joining Starter Story was the best decision I made this year.
I can't think of a better place than Starter Story for the everyday person to take their side hustle to the next level. The community is filled with smart and like-minded individuals who are driven to build great businesses. Pat and team are highly involved with the community, bringing tremendous value and insights.
This cohort caused me to hustle and get my biggest cash month to date + fastest outreach to close ever!

Committing to this program actually got me off the sidelines & taking action. In the past, I'd have an idea like this, then sit on it for months without doing anything. This changed everything for me.
Just closed my first client. Such a proud moment for me.
I've accomplished more than I ever have and learned a lot along the way. Most importantly, I've made PROGRESS and finally have enough momentum to launch my idea.
Just amazing. The structure, tasks, and gamified process has really pushed me to do the necessary work. It is just crazy good.

Joining this program pushed me to make some of the toughest decisions in my life, but they were the right ones. The support and deep focus I gained through this experience gave me the courage to let go of what wasn’t working and double down on my real passion. I’ve already seen the results, and I’m excited for what’s to come. This was a game-changer.
The accountability and gamification in the accelerator was such a good motivator. I finally launched my MVP. I also felt like I wasn't doing it alone, thanks to the good vibes and feedback from my cohort and the Starter Story team.
This cohort not only gave me the knowledge I needed to start my business but also the discipline to network with others and the confidence to put my idea into the world. You can’t teach that in a regular course, and that’s what makes Starter Story different.
Have you ever launched your product in less than 2 weeks? Well, I did it. But I couldn't have done it without Pat or this program. If it weren’t for Starter Story, I might still be working on features that don’t matter. Now, I’m focused on getting customers.
Joined Starter Story, there’s no looking back. I absolutely love the program, the community, and the team. It’s so empowering to know that I can validate any idea within just 4 weeks!
Pat & his team are so close to you during the experience. It felt like a performance sports team where we all work individually and together to make something great happen. Plus - the accountability, content & structure are top notch.
Don't waste months or years trying to crack the code on how to start an online business. Just join Starter story, listen, learn, and get shipping.
This accelerator gave me the structure, focus, accountability and motivation I needed to get my first paid customer!
Launched a landing page, validated my idea, and talked to potential customers in just 3 weeks! Very proud of OptAIcs so far thanks to Starter Story.
We didn't just learn the theory, we put everything into practice through real-world projects. The accelerator was challenging but well-paced, highly recommend.
Would highly recommend joining if you're still on the fence about it. You will ship something and you will be pushed to do it. Stop overthinking it, and send it!
No other program I’ve been part of has offered such positively life changing transformation in just five weeks - plus the incredible experience of being surrounded by other like-minded people! If you’re ready to start an online business, join Starter Story and take your place in the next accelerator!
Great community, amazing members, and an accountability platform that ensures that each cohort is focused on shipping, building and growing a business idea.
