Help aspiring entrepreneurs start their journey toward business ownership!
RMMFI's Idea program helps prospective entrepreneurs create a path to our Business Launch Boot Camp by clarifying potential business concepts and exploring a start-up strategy. Idea Navigators help the entrepreneurs create a high-level vision for their business and assess idea feasibility and personal stability.
As a Navigator, you will work with prospective entrepreneurs 1:1 to assess their business model, make recommendations and referrals, and help ensure they are prepared to start Business Launch Boot Camp.
