Build Your Business from Scratch — Step-by-Step with a Piece of Paper 📄 (Forget Your Business Plan)

In this video, I share how I'm currently building my business — using a tool I created called the Build Canvas.
I explain the gaps I found in Ash Maurya’s Lean Canvas, and how I simplified the idea into something more actionable: a flow you can actually build from.

I’ll take you step-by-step through the components of the Build Canvas — from getting customers, nurturing them, discovering their real needs, to designing better products that people truly want.

If you're trying to build a business from scratch, you'll find this insanely helpful.
