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.

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.
