Introducing The Nerd’s Guide to Starting a Side-Business:
7 Steps You Must Take - Even If You Don’t Know Where To Start.
As scientific experts, we already think and move differently. These exact methods have helped me build and create a viable side-business with nothing more than a laptop, my purpose, and unique skills and this is how I will help build your own viable side-business.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
Clarify: Define a purpose-driven side-business that is personal for you. Build confidence around your convictions, unique skills, and interests.
Commit: Set yourself up with a launch plan that is customized to your busy schedule and type of business so that your “why” can be realized.
Create: Turn your ideas into viable widgets by validating them through target market research, tailoring your branding and content, and creating solutions that people will pay for.
Profit from what you love. Make an Impact.
The Nerd Startup Incubator is dedicated to helping accomplished professionals convert their creativity and compassion into impactful side-businesses using innovative, practical, and effective strategies and tools.
You deserve both an impactful business and lifestyle that you love. We can help.
I am living my best life right now, because I finally got my dope idea out of my head and I am officially in business! I teach compassionate 9-5 experts, who are struggling with getting their ideal products & services out of their heads, to level-up by creating personalized purpose-driven side-business plans so they can:
Make a social impact,
Push past imposter syndrome,
Connect with and meet the needs of their ideal clients,
Shift from working a 9-5 to being an entrepreneur,
Grow outside of their comfort zone,
Build and sustain the life they want,
Get out of debt
Create wealth
Fund their passion projects
Have no regrets.
I absolutely love what I do because it’s purpose-driven and it applies what I am great at, which goes above and beyond what I have degrees in! Can you say fulfilling?
But…
It wasn’t always this way. I spent years thinking of a master plan... to pay off my student loans in a way that wouldn’t require dedicating 30+ years to a 9-5! I've worked lots of side-gigs during and since my college work-study years. I babysat, sold jewelry, sold ridiculously expensive sun-glasses, and I even got into real estate...but none of these avenues really stuck. I was still searching for the right thing for me, that I could really commit to and that would bring me the life I wanted...debt-free, working from anywhere, and living in my purpose.
A̶n̶d̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶n̶ ̶o̶n̶e̶ ̶d̶a̶y̶ ̶“̶I̶ ̶w̶o̶k̶e̶ ̶u̶p̶ ̶l̶i̶k̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶i̶s̶!̶!̶!̶”̶ NOT!
Actually, it's been a crazy ride on the way here. I remember spending a small fortune on what seems like countless online coaching programs, digital products, and workshops...only to be left feeling like I still did not have a "good enough" side-business idea that could really help me change my life and make a huge impact.

“Dr. Nicolas has helped me narrow down my niche, and even coined the name of my ideal client avatar! I used this targeted language in a FB group and got hundreds of replies to my post and dozens of leads for my new coaching program. PLUS she used her coding genius to help me keep track of all of the responses so that I can follow up with my leads! I sold 2 additional seats because of her ($1200)!”
