Brant Cooper, author of <a href="http://leanca.us1.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=85c6ba2a410b1e10aefd30ebc&amp;id=cc9b6b0589&amp;e=6257bfc98e" target="_blank">The Entrepreneur’s Guide to Customer Development</a>, is coming to London to share his experience with Customer Development and fundamental Lean Startup practices in a in a one-day workshop. If you&#8217;ve started Customer Development already, you know it&#8217;s hard. If you&#8217;re interested in learning how it works in the real world, including tips and techniques to overcome different Customer Development challenges, this is your chance. Teams are welcome!

<em>5 evenings, running March &#8211; June (£80)</em><br />
I&#8217;m creating a two-month hands-on program – 5 evening workshops – to get your business to enough revenue so it pays for you to run it full-time. After all, so many successful businesses weren&#8217;t the result of huge personal risk, visionary business plans or up-front venture capital investment. They were started as low-risk part-time projects.   Among other topics, which you will help select, I&#8217;ll run sessions on Lean Startup approaches, choosing the right business model, how to structure learning activities so you can validate quickly on a few hours per week, design techniques, and short paths to paying customers. Plus, I&#8217;ll be inviting some of our local leaders to sit down with you and share their advice and experience too. <a href="http://leanca.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=85c6ba2a410b1e10aefd30ebc&amp;id=fe64f985d1&amp;e=6257bfc98e" target="_blank">Register here.</a></p>
