Course Curriculum
Module 1: Product-Market Fit
Nail the problem you’re solving, define your ideal customer, stay narrow, and cut what doesn’t work.
Module 2: Operational Discipline
Know your true costs, margins, and supply chain — because you can’t market your way out of a bad margin.
Module 3: Channel Strategy
Pick the right channels, win in 10 stores before you pitch 100, and avoid channel conflict.
Module 4: Brand & Marketing
Build a brand that stands for something. Craft a story, not just a SKU. Show up as a founder.
Module 5: Fundraising & Finance
Attract the right investors, run a clean process, and back it up with data that builds trust.
Module 6: Founder Leadership
Protect your time, avoid burnout, delegate with confidence, and step into the role only you can play.
At the end of the day, you don’t need another book on your nightstand or more advice from people who’ve never built what you’re building.
You need a clear system, proven in the trenches, that takes you from where you are to where you want to go.
That’s what Scrappy to Scalable is. It’s not theory. It’s the exact operating system Jason Burke used to raise $20M+, land national retail, and turn a scrappy startup into a brand that lasts.
If you’re ready to stop guessing and start scaling — this is where you begin.
