Old notes on training to be refactored
From Open Source Ecology
- Goal - We grow people. Starting a collaborative business, not going off on your own. Goal: it's an investment in the people doing the enterprise. It's an investment in joining an enterprise community. It's an investment to be taken on as a full-time job. It's a way to fund Open Source Product Development (OSPD).
- Collaborative marketing goals - improving Amazon, Etsy, Open Source Everything Stores (OSES).
- Business plan: 3 month training; revenue projections for 1st month after training - $500-1500 for 1-3 printers sold.
- Information is open source. You pay for the organized learning experience, enterprise cohort, open source product development mastermind, startup package, collaboration training, OSPD training.
- Startup - Amazon store, Etsy store, Kit.com
- Train by participating in a production run
- Workshop setup - parts bins, 3D printed.
- Access to tools - 3D printer, high T chamber, shredder, filament maker. $10k franchise fee, $5k in materials.
- 18" printer, second one to be built by the student from their own resources
- Shredder - 1/2" blades, 3D printed geardown, drill drive, hopper. Wood base. 1" bearings.
