I'm a former Google engineer who wants to help other people learn to code. I'd like to start a coding bootcamp where you get once a week 1:1 personalized coaching instead of 6 day a week classroom instruction.
I think I can get people from 0 to career in 3 months - but I need to prove it.
My plan is to charge normal bootcamp tuition (~18k) and offer:
- Paying a 3k deposit upfront, 6k before the first lesson, and the last 9k after the 6th lesson.
- Continuing to coach people for up to a year or until they get a job offer, whichever comes first.
I'm essentially trying to sell the easiest path to a high paying, high quality of life career, for the same price as the other guys.
But I don't have testimonials and I'm concerned the price will scare people off.
Any suggestions for how I can get my first students?
Any thoughts on the pricing or the offer?
