The thing is, he didn't know the first thing about what he was trying to sell or how to put together a sales proposal, it was just stupid sales tricks, dollar figures and empty "guarantees". We'd always have to hold his hand whenever, during a sales pitch, the client asked a moderately challenging question. Moral of the story: in order to be an entrepreneur, you have the KNOW what the hell the product or service is first, why you want to sell it, and what makes you better than anyone else.

If you look into it a lot of CEOs can't create/engineer, they have business degrees and backgrounds in running corporations/leadership so they hire those devs engineers marketing experts etc... Spending time developing those skills can so much take time by the point you are good enough to create you're late and your competitor beat you to it so it's better to get a team that already possesses those skills and put them to work.

Entrepreneurs are risk takers that if they are good can make a product /service real and brand it well and market it to the public. In my experience as an entrepreneur, we are people who find an interest, keep our ears to the ground and sniff out opportunities and spend money and time to make it happen fast. Then we either sell the company or take it public (I haven’t done that.) You really don’t need a degree for that- your success makes people invest in you.

Yeah entrepreneurship is something you would be better off learning outside of school. If anything do community college to see if college is for you or don't go to college. A bachelors with skills will be the better route. I got a generalist bachelors degree and should've got a specialist kind (In the short term its been rough, but will see if it pays off long term). Though not the end of the world. I'm employed and happy where I am at. Companies like experience and the skills you learn from inside and outside of work instead. All the work you did before is important to where you maybe now. Always build your skills and experience! Keep trying and never quit! Cheers!

Honestly the most useful thing would probably be to learn about finances and management. I think a lot of the skills like coding or video editing are only useful in the early stages of a business, then you can just pay people to do all the work for you and things are vastly different after that.

I have degree in economics and minor in entrepreneur business management both pretty useless but the entrepreneur one was the most useful. I learned a lot more from those classes because they make you take business classes and start up plan. It's was much better than all the economics classes i took.

This reminds me of a participant in the show Shark Tank that talked about their background before the sales pitch. They felt ready to start their first business but only after teaching a class on entrepreneurship for a few years. Get that, they were teaching students how to run a business BEFORE they started trying to run a business themselves. It was all backwards.

Funny, I was looking at degrees after I finish my 3rd associate and that's one of the ones that came up. I think I'm going to stick with BA in Information Management.

I have a Master's in Entrepreneurship and Management, but this applies all the same. I don't have a regret in joining that program itself, since it was an international program, but I wish it had been a different degree. Here's some practical advice. Any business degree that is not Finance or Accounting is a soft-skill business degree--you can do well without it. Get a 2 year Associate's, get a business/marketing coordinator job for 1-2 years (that you would've used to complete the Bachelor's) to get the more valuable job experience, and you'd be starting in the same starting line that I did while spending FAR less in student loans. If you'd like to skip college as well, go for it--I don't blame you in the slightest. But do not go to college just for a business admin/entrepreneurship/marketing degree. - A Director of Marketing with 12+ years experience

The right way to start is to get a degree in the skill needed to build the product you want. And take business as a minor to get familiar with the business side of things. But sadly many colleges are businesses who care about the money more then their students.

It's just about lowering entry requirements

Us ex military just go to these schools because we just want our monthly gi bill stipend.

I always hate calling people stupid but it’s always after I call them stupid.

I remember my freshman year, i tried to tell a classmate he was wasting his money getting a degree and entrepreneurship. If he wanted a degree he could just get a management degree and he would still have a decent curriculum or he could just intern for an entrepreneur. He said i was negative 🥴

i wouldn't mind an entrepreneurship degree that actually taught practical skills related to entrepreneurship - like business accounting, basic business / contract / employment law, business writing, and those workshops like you said are legit skills/knowledge.

Smh just need to watch the Futurama episode about the businessman with boneitis

I was a FIRST Lego League judge once. Pretty fun.

The outlier being Babson or a few others that specialize in this

Damn I need to sell this course lol

Hey Josh - no talking shit on the U of U! On a more serious note at 6:45 your gripe is that it's a degree for ideas with no ability (or perhaps a general lack of specific skills) to implement that idea - but then the entrepreneur takes credit despite others doing the gritty parts for them. Well - if the coders, designers, engineers, scientists, etc. are so smart and want the credit then they can be the entrepreneur too - but they aren't and that's what you pointed out. Different breeds in the world and if it works it works, whether we all like it or not.

Totally makes sense Josh, it's not worth it...

Let's hope all the corporations and government agencies aren't bugging your phones and computers and stealing anybody's ideas.

A certificate from an accredited school that taught small business basics such as accounting, marketing, industry regulations, and basic HR would be a great program for aspiring entrepreneurs. Many entrepreneurs fall into the trap of wearing all of the hats, and a program like this would help people understand where and when they *should* hire someone else to take the wheel. A course stuffed full of flowery corporate buzzwords? Not so much.

Why is a periodontal course listed in the curriculum???

I would just take a Coursera course and go from there.im literally learning how to be a water quality specialist/technician and I alr got a bunch of positive responses, ion got a g2+ thoooo

The problem with any degree I think, I went to Uni this/last year as an adult. Im scared as to what is being taught, doing game design but we don't actually do any games design, got to put up with 50+ year old software design tecniques and configure super obscure hardware that will we likely never ever see again because the lecturer knows that bit of kit. Asa grown up who just went for a bit of fun, youngsters avoid this place like the plague! Learn your craft on your own you will probably do it faster better and cheaper.

As a U.S. Citizen going to undergrad bio/chem and medical school ( just med school at a public TX school 200k+) undergrad I had academic scholarships. I also worked grading homework/TA and was a a pharmacy tech. Then over 4 yrs residency. Today I got bitched out by a Costco pharmacist. Nothing major. Cough medicine, inhalers and antibiotics. We arent aren't. She was ready to fill it. Then "since you are not with a company and your name is your brand". She is going to report it to loss prevention? For what? I should have asked her what med school she went to

"go find CS nerds to code it for you"... *flashbacks to every time someone says "I have a great idea, I just need someone to code it for me"*.

Laughed way too hard at this 😭

_"it's the Echols experience where you do things and things get done"_ Ah yes, doing things definitely seems to get things done....imagine paying 8k to hear that.

100% placement rate. Also 100% self-hire rate. 99% self-fire rate.

Better just laid off more workers. A worker found out as her pc locked her out while she was responding to a customer. No email, no notice, just shut down.

I took a free entrepreneurship class in the Airforce (I mean, it was $5k but free for us hehehe) anyways, it was pretty insightful and being in the environment with ambitious people and a few who already had a successful business, it was a valuable use of my time. Now I’m going to use the GI bill to get a degree in entrepreneurship to match the certificate. I cant recommend the degree for anyone else though… The military gave me Aviation mechanic as a skill to fall back on, the course was free and they’ll be paying me to earn the degree. (That monthly pay being a business decision in itself as it gives me a student visa and spare cash for self investment) TLDR: If you plan on getting a degree, figure out how to make it work for you. Don’t just get one to get one.

It would be one thing if the professors had real world business experience and it was more of an apprenticeship program to start your own company but you're getting a degree in studying entrepreneurs without being one. Most degrees in college are essentially the cycle of why bother-if you want an education you can self educate without a ton of student loans or go to a two year college first.

Where you do things and things get done… 😂 🥴🤔

Doing a Masters of Entrepreneurship as part of Bach of Electrical (but I got a Bach of Computer Systems aka Software Engineering and a Bach of Electrical Engineering)....definitely wouldn't do the Entrepreneurship thing as a standalone degree tho. I also already have a real estate side business on the side so I can provide funding to whatever biz that I start.........something that most grads can't do. (oh and like 50%+ of curriculum are business startup classes and a few post grad engineering courses)

Double majoring or also pursuing a minor are ways for colleges to upsell you. Tell me I am wrong

Y Combinator Startup School - nuff said, no need to stay in university for 3-4 years for an entrepreneurship theory degrees when you can learn from some the best of the best in practice, and even better it's 100% free and lets you connect with founders, co-founders, and just some really smart and dedicated people

Having done a degree, a masters and now being an entrepreneur, it's very clear that you cannot learn to be an entrepreneur at university. You have to DO , not be taught. Far better off learning a specific skill, as he says.
