• Pivot: Not hippies for the enterprise/ose track - but Business Opportunity packaging.
• Question: for our package, this is not 'real estate investing' - this is actually building. Is that too far off into the world of physical production to make it impossible for most?
• Business opportunity definitely aligns with OSE Product - we are defining the product, so if we are solving housing, then we are on-mission.

• Parametric house design - for customization. Digitized - this is a great aspect for automating delivery. WikiHouse is good at it. Hire the boyz.
• Pivot: building entrepreneurs don't want to learn. Young people do. Young people do not have money. Need to fund them. Solution: the Promo Video of All Time, showing how one goes from a 3D printer to CNC torch table to build tractors to build a house.
• Critique of Epic Promo of the Century - it will get people excited, but not think they can do it themselves.
• CM solution: simple video where you get convinced that you can also build a house. No bearded bikers please. CM - excited to see a woman building a house.
• 2 videos needed: epic entrepreneur will like the epic video. But make epic video second. First is OB video.
• Clients we HAVE TO GET. Entrepreneurs - not really necessary. We can hire them and crash course teach them.
• CM can do a custom job in 2-4 days.
• Goal is how to get people - and retain them.
• Maybe its 1000 people to weed out to get to 500.
• Catarina estimates 50% deep challenge on regulation: flood plain, Florida coast, sandy, hurricane grade. Fire zones.

CM Critique of sponsorship: that adds a whole level of complexity, and make a hard project even harder. Not only do we have to prepare the program, we need to raise money for sponsorship.

$25k to sponsors. Need to justify cost: absolutely! Build houses, 3d printers, tractors. Learn collaborative design.

Also - many corporates need one year.

Summary so far: Young guys, the potential idealist movement entrepreneurs - who don't know that in a business, more money has to come in than leave - will want the program, and they are eager to learn. Not industry-standard entrepreneurs or seasoned builders. They are established and think they know better. Gary, Dan, Brett, Drew, etc. Nobody thought that our method was superior.

Another thing: Side by side comparison added to budget.

Good point - additional OSE Fellows can be sourced globally.
