Question 1

What is Before You Leap?

Accepted Answer

Before You Leap is a structured 30-day validation sprint for corporate professionals who want to test real market demand for a consulting or service business before quitting their job. It replaces months of guessing with 30 days of structured testing: a defined offer, real prospect outreach, and a data-backed decision brief.

Question 2

How does the Before You Leap sprint work?

Accepted Answer

Week 1: Offer Design — define your ICP, problem, and outcome. Week 2: Pre-Sell Build — one landing page, one CTA, tracking set up. Week 3: Buyer Exposure — real outreach to qualified prospects. Week 4: Analysis + Decision Brief — what we tested, what it means, your next move.

Question 3

Can I do this while still employed?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The sprint requires about 3–5 hours per week — evenings and weekends. It was designed for people who are still working and want to validate before making any career decisions.

Question 4

What does 'validation' actually mean in this context?

Accepted Answer

Validation means real signal, not reassurance. Before You Leap uses a three-level framework: Level 1 — Attention (did the right people notice?), Level 2 — Intent (did anyone take a real step?), Level 3 — Commitment (did anyone put something at stake?). A strong outcome is 5+ qualified conversations with clear patterns.

Question 5

What if the verdict is 'kill it'?

Accepted Answer

That's a valuable outcome. You saved yourself 6 months and potentially $30,000+ building something nobody wanted. The process also often reveals a better idea hiding inside the original one.

Question 6

How much does Before You Leap cost?

Accepted Answer

The founding rate is $2,000 (3 spots only, 50% off the future price of $4,000). This includes offer design, landing page build, prospect outreach guidance, 4 weekly strategy calls, and a decision brief with 14-day action plan.

Question 7

I don't have a clear idea yet. Can I still do this?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Week 1 is offer design. Most clients come in with a vague direction. The sprint shapes it into a specific, testable offer. You need a general direction (skill + audience), not a business plan.

Question 8

Who built Before You Leap?

Accepted Answer

Before You Leap was built by Patrick Jaritz — 6 years leading operations teams at Amazon, prior military officer experience. He built the sprint as the process he used for his own consulting exit, productized so others can move faster.
