Future Builders Enterprise Formation Track
About
The Future Builders Enterprise Formation Track is a tuition-based, non-wage program in house construction in which participants develop founder-level capability by training inside a forming production enterprise, including supervised field work on real, saleable assets. All commercial ownership, risk, and revenue belong to the Enterprise during the formation phase.
Retention
Source [1]
Future Builders Enterprise is a high-throughput, low-friction production and sales platform that independent builders choose to plug into because it beats going solo.
Critical Design Principle (This Matters)
Architect for graceful exit, not retention.
A system that must trap participants to survive is already broken. Legitimacy comes from choice, not dependency.
1. No Exclusivity
Never require:
- Exclusive supply
- Non-competes
- Volume commitments
Participation must always be voluntary and reversible.
2. Publish Everything
The better your documentation:
- The easier it is to leave
- The stronger your open claim
- The lower your legal risk
Opacity creates lock-in. Documentation creates freedom.
3. Price Honestly
Do not hide your margin. Say plainly:
- “We take ~X% to provide Y services.”
Transparency builds trust and filters for aligned collaborators.
The Paradox to Embrace
The easier it is to leave, the more legitimate it is when people stay.
