Where are you on your Entrepreneur Journey?

Daniel Priestley

CEO & Cofounder, Dent

Most people believe that the journey an entrepreneur takes is unique to every individual, and no one holds onto this belief more than business owners themselves.

But in thinking that their own journey is completely different from anyone elses, they get caught up in its details and miss the actual bigger picture. Having worked with thousands of entrepreneurs and businesses from various industries, weve learned a lot about the Entrepreneur Journey particularly that it is, in fact, a lot more predictable than most people think.

On the Entrepreneur Journey, there are certain problems and frustrations that come along at a very predictable time, and there are also certain ways to overcome them if you know the journey ahead of you.

There are one of five areas where your business is currently sitting:

  1. Start-up Pre-revenue business, testing out ideas in the market, less time, more stress

  2. Wilderness Struggling solopreneur, no product offering, juggling multiple roles

  3. Lifestyle A team of 3 12 people, less hours, more freedom, great revenue, low profit

  4. The Desert Too big to be a small business, and too small to be a big business

  5. Performance Steady growth, high valuation, investable, great team culture, profitable

Based on research and experience, and also reflective of Big Data, weve just released a 20-page report on these insights to help business leaders such as yourself to find out where you currently are in your own Entrepreneur Journey and how you can strategically plan and move forward.

Your Questions Answered

You can also find out more detail on our Methodology on our next webinar.

How long does it take to complete KPI?

The programme is built around a 12-month foundation year. This is the time it takes to build your full authority ecosystem. From there, many clients continue to compound their results year on year. Within 24 hours of joining, you'll get full access to the KPI platform. In your first week, you'll attend a group onboarding session where you'll learn how to navigate the platform, access your resources, subscribe to our event calendars, and book into your first Value Canvas Kickoff.

How long has Dent been doing this?

Over 5,500 businesses across 60+ industries in EMEA, the Americas, and Asia-Pacific have gone through our accelerators.

What is your mission?

Our mission is to produce Key People of Influence who stand out, scale up, and make an impact in the world.

What makes this different from programmes?

The biggest difference is that KPI is a production environment, not a course. You don't watch videos and hope something sticks. You build 15-17 real assets of influence — your book, your scorecard, your productised offer, your lead generation system — in structured 10-day sprints with live coaching. Every asset goes to market as you build it. Real feedback, real results, real revenue impact. And you're doing it alongside 5,500+ founders who've been through the same methodology.

Is Daniel Priestley involved in the programme?

Yes! Daniel is our CEO and Cofounder. He is one of the key minds behind every aspect of the KPI Accelerator. He occasionally runs workshops himself.
