ā€œThis course really built this discipline in me to say, ā€œLord is this what you want?ā€, and then because I wait and hear from Him and then adjust, now there’s been no doubt in what I built. So it builds my confidence and now I’m not just running around, I’ve done the work, I’ve consulted with the Lord. My confidence has totally shifted.ā€ — Mekdes Haddis, Founder, Just Missions

The BYBI Curriculum - The Step-By-Step Process We’ll Walk Together

A clear, self-paced path that walks you step-by-step to turn your God-given idea into a God-led, impactful, profitable business.

Phase 1: ALIGN // Get in step with God and your real life

In the Align phase, we slow down and make sure you are actually building the big idea God is asking you to build right now, not just what the internet says you ā€œshouldā€ be doing. You will:

  • Clarify which big idea (and which first version of it) God is highlighting for this season so you know exactly what to focus on next.

  • Pray through your plan using guided exercises that help you ā€œgive God roomā€ to speak, adjust, and confirm your next steps.

  • Calibrate your calendar so there is realistic, scheduled time each week to work on your business and your mindset, not just think about it.

  • Activate community and accountability so you are not building in isolation or trying to figure it all out in your own head.

By the end of Align, you are clear on your God aligned big idea, your next 6 month goal, and when that work is actually happening week to week.

Phase 2: TEST // Date your idea before you marry it
In the Test phase, you stop guessing and start gathering real data with real people so you can build an offer that actually works in the real world. You will:

  • ā€œDate your avatarā€ by having short research conversations with the exact people you want to serve so you can hear their real language, pain points, and desires.

  • Craft a simple 1.0 test offer that is fast to deliver, valuable, and focused on giving them a specific quick win in 30 days or less.

  • Run a low risk, low cost private trial of your offer so you can validate pricing, structure, and promise without a big public launch.

  • Collect structured feedback and 5 star style testimonials that become the ā€œreceiptsā€ you will use in your marketing later.

By the end of Test, you have proof that people will pay for your offer, clear insight into how to improve it, and impact testimonials that boost your confidence and your sales.

Phase 3: LAUNCH // Build a simple funnel that sells on repeat
In the Launch phase, you turn your tested idea into a simple, sustainable sales system you can keep running over time. You will:

  • Design a 1.0 funnel that walks people from first discovering you, to considering your offer, to buying, to becoming raving fans.

  • Create a community building content plan that matches your personality, your avatar, and your real life so you can actually show up consistently.

  • Set up your basic sales assets, including a clear sales letter, simple checkout or invoice system, and confirmation and follow up touchpoints.

  • Turn your funnel ā€œonā€ for your first 30 days, then learn how to monitor and optimize it so you can grow from ā€œoccasional saleā€ to ā€œconsistent sales.ā€

By the end of Launch, you are not just sitting on a dream. You are running a real, God aligned offer with a simple funnel, real customers, real testimonials, and a clear path to keep growing your impact and income.

This curriculum can be completed in 6 months or less if you follow the recommended pacing.


What Our Founders Say…

  • ā€œOne year ago, I shared a goal of having house cleaning covered via my business earnings…They will be here Friday. But God!! Thank you for our work togetherā€ — Kiva Slade, Business & Growth Consultant

  • ā€œThe test phase was hands-down my favorite part of the entire process. Taking a small, contained piece of my idea and actually testing it gave me momentum I didn’t know I needed. It pulled me out of analysis paralysis and showed me what it feels like to put something into the world without overthinking it.ā€ — Arienne Milkles, Founder Audacious Heirā„¢

  • ā€œMy biggest wins were clarity on the direction of my business, landing my first client, receiving an overflow of testimonials & learning how to truly partner with God in my business.ā€ — Carmen Brown, M.Ed, Systems Strategist

  • ā€œFor the first time since I embarked on the entrepreneur journey, I don’t feel frazzled, overwhelmed or hopeless. My life and business feel so much more organized since I joined.ā€ — Vanetta Morrison, Founder, The Blueprint Way

  • ā€œAs a busy wife and mother of small children, I thrived because of the framework and strategy Marlena created not only helped me be in alignment with God; it also aligned with the demands of my actual daily life—which was an absolute game changer for me.ā€ — Nikiah B. Campbell, Coach & Consultant

  • ā€œWithin 60 days of working with Marlena I secured my first client with the signature offer we created, and within 60 days of that I raised my prices and that same client paid the increase.ā€ — Ebony James, CEO The Empire Effect Agency

  • ā€œThat session brought me so much clarity and alignment. The result is the business I run today—we signed our largest contract to date shortly after, using the brand language and direction that emerged from my work with you.ā€ — Susan Onigbinde, Founder DODO Design
