Why this Growth & Scale Bootcamp
Growth can feel harder than it should when the numbers are unclear, the funnel feels patchy and too much still relies on manual effort. You know you want to grow, but it is not always easy to see what to measure, what to improve, what to automate or when to hire. This bootcamp is designed to help you get clearer, feel more in control and take practical action you can apply straight away.
Growth still feels hard to measure, hard to repeat and too dependent on guesswork.
It is hard to see which numbers matter most and what to fix first in the funnel.
Hiring, systems and AI can feel useful, but still disconnected when growth needs scale.

Frequently asked questions
Is this bootcamp right for me?
This bootcamp is designed for founders and early-stage business owners who want clearer growth priorities, better use of numbers and systems, and a more confident approach to hiring for scale. It is especially useful if growth feels inconsistent, too manual or hard to measure.
Do I need to understand funnels, numbers or AI already?
No. The bootcamp is designed to be practical and accessible, whether you are still building confidence with the basics or want a clearer structure for what comes next.
Will this be too basic if I already have customers?
Not at all. The focus is on helping you make better decisions about growth, systems, automation and hiring, even if you are already trading and want to scale more effectively.
Will this be too advanced if I am still early-stage?
No. If you are already trying to generate leads, improve conversion or make decisions about capacity, the bootcamp will help you build stronger foundations before things get more complex.
Why include hiring in a growth bootcamp?
Because growth becomes harder to sustain when the numbers are unclear, the systems are manual and hiring decisions are rushed. This bootcamp helps you think about growth and scale in a more joined-up way.
How practical is the bootcamp?
Very practical. The sessions are designed to help you apply what you learn straight away, so you leave with clearer priorities, stronger foundations and actions you can use in your business.
What makes this different from free online advice?
This bootcamp brings practical guidance into one focused day, with expert input, structured learning and follow-up support. Instead of piecing together disconnected tips, you get a clearer path and space to work on your business in a more joined-up way.
What if I am not ready to hire yet?
That is absolutely fine. The hiring section is not about pushing you to recruit too early. It is about helping you understand when hiring makes sense, what good recruitment looks like and how to avoid costly mistakes later.
How does the free mentoring benefit work after the bootcamp?
Bootcamp attendees can apply for priority review for free One to One Business Mentoring. Attendance at the bootcamp does not guarantee a mentoring place. If your application is accepted and a suitable mentoring match is available, the usual £27 admin and programme set-up fee will be waived. Mentoring places are offered subject to fit and mentor availability.
Why is the bootcamp priced at £27?
UP is committed to making high-quality business support more accessible. The £27 price is made possible through support from UP and the contribution of volunteer experts.
Will I leave with something I can actually use?
Yes. The aim is that you leave with clearer numbers, stronger systems thinking, more confidence around growth decisions and practical next steps you can apply straight away.
Are places limited?
Yes. There are only 15 places available so participants can benefit from a better learning experience and more meaningful follow-up support.
