Nevertheless, great products are created anyway with almost zero budget. How do they succeed?
What does the best path to innovation look like? Do you really need an investor or a big budget? You often feel like you keep hitting a wall. You’re frustrated. Every hurdle you’ve cleared so far seems like pure luck and your road is plastered with stop signs.
When you just start creating something bigger than you, the true pain of an innovator kicks in. What actually stops you from bringing your innovation to market?
SYMPTOM 1
But you don’t know how and where to start. “What and who do I need?” “How much time and money will it take for my idea to see light of day?” Have you been asking yourself these questions?
SYMPTOM 2
You have never done any innovation projects before and feel kind of lost because you don’t really know what it needs to implement your idea and don’t want to take any unnecessary risks either – knowing that over 90% of all products fail after their market launch. All that has been daunting and preventing you from finally getting started.
SYMPTOM 3
Your innovation budget is close to zero and you have been trying to find investors to build your product and found a company. You think you need costly manpower or even specialists to implement your idea. And you wonder where to get all that money from that it needs to make your idea become a reality.
SYMPTOM 4
You have tried everything, given everything. However, you have noticed how your own frustration level keeps rising and your motivation constantly decreasing.
SYMPTOM 5
It's like building a house, which most of us do once or twice in lifetime - if at all. So how on earth should you know how to do it?
Moreover, most books and templates are so focused on the theoretical part and don't provide any execution insights so you desperately looking for someone who can show you the easiest and fastest way possible.
Any startup pitfalls out there? I've fallen into all of them.
From not being heard despite having great ideas, to resistant people and completely bloated innovation approaches. From struggling to hire the agency to not knowing where to start at all . I've been there and gone through all that. Being an innovator myself, I can feel your pain, too.
Facing all these challenges, I've learned the hard way what doesn't work. But thanks to what I have experienced myself, I can prevent all that from happening to you.
And in addition to showing you all the things that don't work, I can show you what does work by sharing my knowledge with you.
15+ years of experience in the innovation development business.
Together with my team I`ve worked with 7 out of 9 of the most innovative German companies worldwide!
Bestselling author and Keynote Speaker on innovation topics
Experience in almost every industry and all types of innovation
You bet. Instead of playing the endless "I believe, you believe" game, we develop tangible high glossy prototypes and go to market straight away.
But it's not that easy. You'll need a bulletproof process called "Innoweek®". Our goal is to find out in the fastest possible way, if a new product works without the need to actually building it in all details. We stop the guessing game!
Groundbreaking innovative products and services are no longer out of reach. You thought only a genius could develop, launch and validate a product within such a short time and without budget? Nope. Our Startup Bootcamp will enable you and your team to do the same.
With 15 years of experience in innovation and a long list of customers, including well-known DAX companies, but also a large number of startups, I can tell you it doesn’t take more than a week to bring your product idea to market. And it doesn’t need a big fortune either.
You want to learn how to develop tangible products within the shortest possible time? We are going to show you the system behind as well as all the tricks of the trade – a process that we have continuously been improving over the years.
That can happen very easily if you lack the courage of the one who may have the same idea as you and just implements it.
In fact, there's nothing more painful, more soul-crushing than having a great innovation idea, only to watch a competitor going to market with it before you.
So why let someone else win the race if your success can be just one week away?
Startup budgets are always tight.
Or maybe you even have to raise money from scratch.
What if it took one week only to build a tangible and testable version of your product idea? To get real customer feedback instead of building your product and trying to find a market for it afterwards?
Great ideas need and deserve execution. Therefore, it would be a pity if they didn’t see light of day for reasons that don’t actually exist.
If it doesn’t need months or years, if it doesn’t take huge budgets – why not start straight away?
Nearly two decades in the startup industry, plus proven processes, templates and mindset tips.
You can overcome these hurdles all by yourself, but our experience is here and available for you. Learn from our mistakes so that you won't lose your motivation or miss the unique opportunity to implement your idea. Whatever path you take – it won’t be easy. But we've put every red flag, warning sign and how-to into this entire program.
That's what makes the Startup Bootcamp so different from any other program out there. We have actually been there, done that.

The collaboration with Granny&Smith has been enormously profitable and also been a lot of fun. Even the selection of the employees shows that Granny&Smith is really professional. The result is convincing in every respect. I will always recommend the GRNY team and hope that we will work together more often.

Granny&Smith always understood, delivered, questioned status quo, presented straightforward, bulls-eye answers and solutions.

In sprint Granny&Smith helps to make our ideas into something visible and tangible. Creativity paired with a structured way of working, inexhaustible know-how and a cordial manner let me look forward to common work appointments with joy. This makes work fun! Granny&Smith are much more than just consultants - they are like a rock by our side.
Nadja Kahn

We contracted a sprint with Lars to get an online configurator mockup and click model. The result exceeded our expectations. We further received a lot of valuable food for thought and insights. We will surely work with Lars again!

The Startup Bootcamp needs more than watching the course as an entertainment. Bringing a product to market requires your full commitment.
I’m not going to show you shortcuts to success because they don’t exist. What I can promise though is that your investment in the Startup Bootcamp will help you save time, tons of money, and reduce your workload. Being where I am now took me decades of learning innovation the hard way – a fact that will prevent you from making the same mistakes yourself.
I can’t do the work for you, but I can support you and catch you when you fall. If you want your ideas to successfully make it to market, this course will help empower you to achieve that.
Take your time to study the material packed in 7 modules. Be part of a community for mutual exchange and support.
People have different approaches to learning and varying schedules. Although most participants will be able to finish this course within six weeks, you can choose your own pace. Whether it’s longer or shorter, it won’t have any impact on your learning success. Moreover, being an innovator, you have had the experience that your day may vary a lot and requires re-scheduling, too.
By subscribing to the Startup Bootcamp, you will have lifetime access to all course materials.

Coaching calls take place at monthly intervals. The entire group is invited to participate. These calls provide a unique opportunity for you to get answers to your most important questions. Don’t miss the opportunity to get valuable advice from coaches and peers.
If you struggle to get tangible results, if you don’t reach your goals, if you don’t find the right organizational form, or if you can´t build the products you’ve always wanted, the Bootcamp will give you the answer. (If you still don’t know whether it’s right for you, click here for a brief quiz.)
The Bootcamp is a masterclass which allows you to choose your own pace. Take your time – no matter how long it takes you. You will have access to new modules as you proceed.
The Bootcamp is not a panacea. To achieve the results desired, it needs your full commitment, i.e. your time, effort, and energy. Innovations differ. That’s why there is no template to tackle the challenges you and your team are or will be facing. They can only be solved with active contribution.
After completing the 7 modules of this course, you will see more clearly and be more confident when it comes to dealing with the challenges of innovation. This masterclass is not an answer to all your questions on how to build a solid product, but it will enable and encourage you to design your own roadmap for that and finally bring your idea to the market.
