Last Friday we got to do one of our favorite things. Talk entrepreneurship with people who are hungry for it.

We partnered with the CEC and spent time with a room full of aspiring entrepreneurs just getting started. Fun fact: we are actually a ministry of Bible Center Church

Helping people build is literally what we are called to do.

If your business has a Homewood address, we need to talk.
There is a scholarship available specifically for Homewood-based businesses enrolling in Cohort 21. This is not just business development. It is ministry. Own Our Own is part of the Bible Center Church church family and we are invested in this neighborhood and the people building here.

Quick question: who is your customer, really?

Not who you hope will buy from you. Who is actually buying, and what words do they use to describe their own problems?

Customer discovery is one of the most powerful tools in business and most people skip it. We don't. It's a core part of what we teach at Own Our Own.
