Are you a Founder of a Start Up Business looking to beat the odds?

Then you are in the right place BUT how invested are you in your “success”?

Welcome to the Entrevia community – the way forward for founders & their business

According to the latest data, up to 90% of startups fail. Across almost all industries, the average failure rate for year one is 10% and even as high as one in three. However, in years two through five, a staggering 70% of new businesses will fail. Over the long run, 9 out of 10 startups fail.

It’s time for this to change

It is our mission to support founders and position entrepreneurship as a route of wise investment and choice, not something that feels too risky.

Our goal is to support you – to help you thrive not just survive or, worst still, become another of these statistics.

We know the role of a founder can be a lonely place. Who else is supporting you? You can’t ask questions to your team, or even your network, as it risks losing face? Perhaps your relationship partner just won’t understand? A search or Ai may give you an answer but does it come with the knowledge and the expertise of those that are, or have, experienced the journey you are on?

Entrevia is not just a community. It’s a space for founders and entrepreneurs to find their way from Start Up to Scale, from Idea to Profit.

We are a supportive community where entrepreneurs find clarity, tools, and connections to create a strong foundation for future growth.

It’s a rare space that blends mentors and topic experts with the voice of founders. A community where founders hear from other founders.

Too many great ideas never get started and thrive. Let’s change that – together.

From Idea to Profit: Build Your Business with Confidence

Access expert advice, tools and support trusted by start up founders

At this moment you have a business idea or maybe you’ve already started, but now you’re likely to be asking:

  • What’s the next step?
  • Am I missing something?
  • Am I taking the best path?
  • How do I avoid costly mistakes?
  • How do I keep this going in the right direction?

Starting a business is exciting but it can also be overwhelming. From navigating the legal requirements to set up and building a plan, to finding your first customers and delivering the promise, there are countless decisions to make. It often feels like there are just so many different hats to wear.

That’s why our founder, Mike Foster, wrote the books to help you cut through the confusion and focus on what really matters. But reading one of the books is just the beginning.

You’ve got a great idea, you are hustling and maybe you’ve even gained some traction, but you may be unsure what to prioritise next. The fear of wasting time, making the wrong move, or missing something crucial feels very real.

Many founders tell us that they often feel alone or isolated, overwhelmed by information, or worried about whether they are “doing it right” – if that’s also you, don’t worry this is normal at this stage of your entrepreneurial journey.

If you are like other business owners that we support, then what you truly want is clarity, a path to follow, the right tools, and the confidence to build something real. You want practical, proven guidance not just more fluff. You don’t want to just start a business… you want to start the right business, with direction, support, and a plan that makes sense.

We’ve supported hundreds of founders through those critical early steps. We’ve also started various businesses ourselves.

Whether you’re still refining your idea or you’ve already started trading, we’ve developed a ‘Community Portal’ full of practical tools, support, and business development programmes to help you build momentum, faster and with fewer missteps. The portal also provides you with the opportunity to learn from your peers, their experience and their expertise.

Everything here is designed to meet you where you currently are on your journey and move you forward with clarity and confidence.

The Entrevia platform and community will guide you through all the noise with proven tools, mentoring, and support – and the best bit is that it is all designed for start up entrepreneurs like you.

Our goal is to share experience, expertise and knowledge, with entrepreneurs like you, to help new founders or early stage business owners to create the business they desire and deserve.
