Lighthouse
Harnessing community expertise to illuminate new frontiers for small businesses
July 2018
We live in a world of wasted expertise
There are many experts, whether it be consultants, industry experts, lawyers, or even just excel gurus who have valuable skills but aren’t being utilized to their full potential. On the other side of the market, those who could benefit from these skills often cannot access them in a convenient affordable way. Lighthouse is a product designed to eliminate this friction, specifically for small business owners seeking opportunities to upskill and grow their ventures. The focus on small businesses emerged from the 70% rate of failure for small businesses in their fourth year of operation.
Lighthouse is a two-sided ecosystem and platform for learners and guides to engage with one another. It leverages the LinkedIn platform for user acquisition.
