Business

The Business Track is for young people who want to turn skills, ideas, or hustle into something sustainable — whether that’s a service, small business, side project, or early-stage startup. This track helps you move from “I have ideas” → “I know how to start and grow something real.”

What You’ll Learn

LevelUp’s Business Track is built to help you understand how business actually works — in a simple, practical, and realistic way.

Whether you’re offering a service, running a small hustle, or exploring entrepreneurship for the first time, this track helps you build clarity, structure, and confidence.

We focus on:

  • action over overthinking

  • simplicity over complexity

  • progress over perfection

This is not about writing long business plans.
It’s about learning how to start, test, and grow.
