What does it mean to have a "Stubborn MVP" mindset when building your business?
The Stubborn MVP mindset is an obsession with hitting a specific deadline by running over every technical obstacle and personal excuse in your path.
Chad proved this by building the entire Hustle 2.0 course inside Course Sprout in a single day, refusing to let a broken toe or technical glitches stop him from finishing by midnight.
Instead of waiting for a "perfect" moment, you decide that your product will be live today, resulting in a completed asset that starts serving your community immediately.
How did Chad build an entire Course Sprout product in just 24 hours?
He followed a high-speed creation loop that focused on teaching one simple idea at a time rather than getting lost in detailed planning.
By stripping away "busy work" like complicated slide decks and sizzle reels, he was able to move from an initial idea to a finished lesson in minutes.
This speed allows you to build your business in real-time, giving you the ability to ship a training program that is 1,000% more stable because it was built through action rather than theory.
What is the exact step-by-step process for rapid course creation?
The process consists of identifying a single topic, creating a title slide, recording the lesson, and loading it directly into the platform.
- Step 1: The Title Slide. Simply put the title of the lesson on a slide in PowerPoint or Google Draw to give your video a professional start.
- Step 2: Live Recording. Start your screen recording immediately and explain the topic as if you were talking to a friend over coffee.
- Step 3: The "Pause and Ask" Trick. If you get stuck, pause the video, find the answer from a team member like G, then resume recording right where you left off.
- Step 4: Immediate Editing. Use Camtasia to cut out errors and render the file on the spot rather than sending it away for long editing cycles.
- Step 5: Load and Move On. Upload the video to Course Sprout and immediately start the next lesson to keep your momentum high.
Why should you prioritize "Done" over "Perfect" for your business courses?
Perfectionism is a form of procrastination that stops you from making money and providing actual value to your community.
Chad reminded us that people will pay to watch you build; in fact, he funded the original Course Sprout because 15 people paid him $1,000 each to see the process unfold.
Instead of polishing slides that no one cares about, you should focus on delivering the "A to Z" map your students need, resulting in a profitable asset that grows your authority while you work on the next big idea.
How does finishing a course in one day change your business trajectory?
Completing a 24-hour build provides you with a massive confidence boost and "armor" for more difficult business challenges in the future.
When you look at your finished course at midnight, you realize that you are a producer rather than a consumer, meaning you can replicate this success in any town or niche.
By winning the "mental war" against perfectionism, you gain the ability to ship new products whenever your audience has a need, cementing your status as a stubborn, successful entrepreneur
