We founded Zenagos to help people start their own businesses and avoid common start-up mistakes – without investing tens of thousands of dollars in an MBA and without taking several months to build a complicated business plan.

Zenagos’ Innovation Trek is a 12-week experience designed to give entrepreneurs the tools, feedback, and plans they need to confidently start their dream business. The program is a mix of online videos, written instruction, live working sessions with the Zenagos experts, and accountability check-ins with fellow entrepreneurs. 

At the end of the Innovation Trek, entrepreneurs will have their own personalized financial, marketing and advertising plans as well as a series of checklists to keep them on track. The goal is to provide each Trekker with personalized feedback on their business ideas and help them see their path forward.

The program is not an incubator and is not designed to find Angel investors or VC’s. 

We are looking for entrepreneurs who want a structured way to validate their idea by helping them:
* Examine the business’ likelihood of profitability
* Determine how much money they really need to start the business
* Understand their target customer and how to reach them
* Evaluate their competition and differentiate themselves from competitors
* Identify the roles and numbers of the team they need to build
* Calculate their customer acquisition costs
