ABOUT Our Course

The Online Business Lift-Off Program is a 12-week course that shows you how to come up with a good business idea, validate it, get your website and other online tech set up and get people coming to you for help with their problems. When it comes to starting your own business, we're here to guide you along the way.

U

Find An Idea

Business ideas are a dime a dozen, but not every idea is created equal. We show you how to find ideas that solve problems that people actually want solved – we'll also show you how to be paid for this too.

Get Yourself Set Up Online

Getting the technical components of your business setup, like your website, can be challenging. We make it quick and easy so you can get started helping customers fast.

w

Help People Find You

Content is the cornerstone of online business. We show you how to discover what people are looking for, as well as how to help people find you and your content.

Grow Your Business

Lots of things contribute to your business growth, but the secret is to continually improve the things that matter! We show you how to do this – and help decide what matters to you.

Study When It Suits You

Everyone’s timetables are different – You may only have evenings free, you might be working split shifts, or simply don’t have full days off. With the Online Business Lift-Off program, you can learn what you need as you need it, from wherever works for you.

Modern Tools & Courses

We teach you the tools that we think will help you the most, for people who are starting their online business for the first time. And we practice what we preach! We use these tools ourselves to create, build and grow our own portfolio of online businesses.

A Team Who Cares

We’re passionate about creating opportunities for a better life. Everyone is welcome – our speciality is working with people who struggle with traditional 9 to 5 jobs. And we’ve been blown away – there are some amazing success stories so far.

Testimonials

Marnie Bone

“Online Business Lift-Off is the most incredible opportunity to develop and grow my business. The sense of team and belonging is highly evident through the support, even though what we are doing is an online course. OBL has shone a light on a dream that seemed unattainable alone. Thank you Trudy for your vision and your awesome team for making the impossible, possible!”

Joe Pascoe

“Joe found a gap in the marketplace for online apps. You can learn how to find problems that need fixing, too.”

Ellen Fletcher

“After completing the Online Business Ignition Course I found I had many business initiative ideas that I wanted to start to create and apply to my life. This course was very useful in getting me excited and thinking about new ideas and products that I would never have come up with on my own.”

“Are you blind, like Ken? Then, just like Ken, you can do the Online Business Lift-Off program and start a new chapter in your life.”

OUR STORY

The OBL story began in 2016, as a solution to help the vision-impaired find work. Now the OBL program is used to help serve anyone who cannot work the traditional “9 to 5” job.

Our founder, Trudy Rankin, explains how she got to her big ‘why‘ moment and the inspiration behind the Online Business Lift-off program.
