Own Your Business

Take back control of your business technology

Most small business owners have handed over the keys to their digital kingdom without realising it. Your email, your files, your customer data, even your website — they all sit on platforms you do not control, governed by terms you did not read, in jurisdictions you cannot influence.

This course changes that.

Own Your Business is a self-paced video course designed for UK and EU small business owners who want to understand the real risks of their current technology setup and take practical, achievable steps towards digital independence.

Who this course is for

• Small business owners who rely on cloud services but have never audited what they have signed up for
• Founders and directors who want to understand their legal obligations around data protection and cybersecurity
• Non-technical leaders who need clear, jargon-free guidance on protecting their business
• Anyone who has ever wondered what would happen if their email provider, cloud storage, or website host changed their terms overnight

What you will learn

Across five modules and twenty-five lessons, you will move from understanding the threats to building a resilient technology stack you actually own:

1. Why You’re at Risk — the real threats facing small businesses, what the law expects of you, and an honest assessment of where you stand today
2. Your Data Isn’t Yours — where your data actually lives, who has access, and what cloud provider terms really say
3. The Hidden Cost of Big Tech — vendor lock-in, compliance exposure, and the true price of convenience
4. The Practical Exit — step-by-step migration guides for email, file storage, and your website
5. Building Your Resilience Stack — self-hosted tools, backup strategies, security habits, and your 90-day roadmap

How it works

Each lesson includes a video walkthrough, downloadable slides, and a written summary you can keep. Mark lessons as complete to track your progress, and rate each one so we can keep improving the material.

You purchase once and own the content permanently. No subscriptions, no recurring fees, no content that disappears when you stop paying.

Practical, not theoretical

This is not a cybersecurity certification course. There are no exams and no jargon-heavy lectures. Every lesson is built around real scenarios that small business owners face every day — from spotting phishing emails to migrating away from a cloud provider that no longer serves your interests.

By the end of the course, you will have a clear, actionable plan for technology independence that fits your business, your budget, and your technical ability.
