What’s going on

We’re all busy, and it’s easy for good ideas to stay ideas. This is a reason to make time, put a date on what we want to do, and help each other follow through. No more talking about it. Let’s share ideas, learn from each other, help each other build, and make track days, trips, and the things we want to do happen. Fewer excuses, more figuring it out together.

Our first project

A friendly, optional competition to build and launch a small side business before October 31. How quickly can you turn an idea into something real? Share ideas, learn from each other, and help each other move faster. Think speed run: small ideas, quick decisions, and a deadline that makes it fun.

You’re welcome at the meetups whether you compete or not. Read the rules below, then add your name if you’re in.

The rules

No excuses. Start small, build, test, fix and ship. Cut the scope, keep the deadline.

Start fresh
Build your own new side business, starting on or after September 18, 2026. Existing projects don’t qualify. Bring your own idea and work.
Present your project or business idea at the October 4 kickoff
Share what you plan to build and where we can help each other. Ideas and work in progress are welcome.
Launch before October 31, 2026
Have something real that customers can buy or use, and a way to deliver it. A teaser or waitlist isn’t a launch. You don’t need a first sale yet.
Build your way
Advice, collaboration, tools and AI are welcome. It’s your business.
Share your progress
Tell us what you’ve built, what’s working and what’s next. Be honest about your progress.
