What if the best business education isn’t in a classroom?

 

Your child wants to start a business. You want to make sure they don’t fail. Maybe they have ideas. Maybe they’ve already started making money from a side hustle. They want them to build something of their own—but you keep wondering if they’re supposed to get a degree first.

Here’s the truth: Young entrepreneurs don’t need to choose between their dreams and financial stability.

Building a real, profitable business is actually much more straightforward than you might think. The secret is to stop waiting for permission and start learning by doing—with the right guidance from seasoned Christian entrepreneurs who have actually built and sold successful companies.

Which steps lead to a sustainable business? We’re going to show you, in this FREE workshop, hosted by Dr. Brian O’Rear, co-founder of The Rising Entrepreneur Institute and builder of a multi-million dollar business.

In this step-by-step live workshop, you will:

Learn the 4 biggest mistakes aspiring entrepreneurs make (and how your child can avoid them).

Discover the exact 3-step method successful young entrepreneurs use to go from idea to income.

See proof that this actually works with stories of real Christian entrepreneurs who launched successful businesses as young adults.

Walk away with a clear action plan for your child’s next steps.

 Best part? This workshop is for both parents AND students.

If you’re an aspiring entrepreneur, you’ll get the roadmap you need to take action. If you’re a parent, you’ll understand exactly how entrepreneurship can be a viable, structured alternative to traditional college—and how to support your child’s dreams without the anxiety.

You will NOT want to miss this workshop!

Dr. Brian O’Rear spent 20 years as an Air Force instructor pilot before launching his own home inspection business from scratch. He built that single location into one of the country’s largest home inspection companies—a multi-million dollar operation he successfully sold in 2018.

After earning his doctorate in entrepreneurship and teaching as an adjunct professor at Boyce College, Brian co-founded The Rising Entrepreneur Institute alongside Brett Harris, CEO of Do Hard Things, Inc. because he was tired of watching talented young people waste years studying business theory instead of actually building businesses.

He’s passionate about helping young entrepreneurs develop real skills, launch real ventures, and create sustainable income—all without the burden of student debt.

Join us for this unique FREE workshop to discover how your child can build a thriving business too!

Frequently Asked Questions

How long is this workshop?

The workshop runs approximately 60 minutes, including time for Q&A at the end. We encourage both students and parents to attend together so you can discuss next steps as a family afterward.

Is this for students who already have a business idea, or can beginners attend?

Both! Whether your child already has a business they’ve started, a specific idea they want to pursue, or they’re simply exploring entrepreneurship as an alternative to college—this workshop will provide the clarity and direction they need.

Is this just a sales pitch for your program?

No. This is a genuine training workshop where you’ll learn the proven method for launching a profitable business—regardless of whether your child ever joins The Rising Entrepreneur Institute. That said, at the end of the workshop, Dr. O’Rear will share information about the program for those who want personalized coaching and support as they build their businesses. There’s no pressure, and the content itself is valuable whether your family takes the next step with us or not.

My child is only a high school sophomore/junior. Is this workshop relevant for us?

Absolutely! In fact, starting to think about entrepreneurship earlier gives your child a significant advantage. This workshop will help you understand what’s possible and how to start preparing—even if enrollment in a formal program is a year or two away.

Who should I contact with questions?
