There is a lot to think about when you are starting out. Is the idea viable? Who will buy it? What should you charge? How will you reach customers, manage the money and make sure everything is set up properly? You do not need to have all the answers now. You just need a practical place to begin and the right support as your idea develops. That is exactly what GetSet is here to provide.

Ignite 28 is our step-by-step business start-up web app. It takes you through the essential stages of building a business in 28 clear steps, with focused activities, videos, resources and space to develop your own ideas as you go.

You will explore your market, customers, pricing, finances, branding, marketing, legal responsibilities and plans for launch. More importantly, you will apply everything directly to your own business and finish with a plan built from the work you have completed. Ideal if you have an idea but are unsurewhat to do next. Ignite gives you the structure, prompts and practical information to move forward at your own pace. No jargon. No enormous blank template. Just one useful step at a time.

Some ideas need a conversation, a second opinion or more hands-on help. We offer personal business planning and mentoring shaped around your goals, your circumstances and the decisions you need to make.

Looking for grants or investment? We can help you identify realistic opportunities, build a stronger business case and prepare an application that gives funders the information they actually need.

Ignite Academy brings the structure of Ignite 28 into schools, colleges, enterprise programmes, funders and business-support organisations. Participants work through a real business idea while developing practical knowledge, confidence and decision-making skills.

It gives educators and mentors a ready-made framework to use alongside the support they already provide, with options ranging from self-managed licences to fully supported delivery.
