Course – University of Houston: Entrepreneurial Revenue from Idea to Pitch

At the University of Houston's Wolff Center for Entrepreneurship, I had the chance to guide students through a course focused on one of the most exciting parts of business building: generating revenue from your ideas. This isn’t theory. It’s a hands-on sprint where students build side hustles, test real markets, and learn to sell. From customer interviews to pitch decks, these undergrads walked away with not just business plans—but confidence, clarity, and momentum.

• How to validate a business idea through customer discovery
• Revenue models for small-scale ventures and side hustles
• Building a minimum viable offering (product, service, or digital)
• Crafting and delivering investor-ready pitches
• Entrepreneurial mindset: resilience, resourcefulness, and execution

“This course pushed me outside my comfort zone... and helped me realize I’m capable of actually launching something real.” — UH Student
