What you get
Easy-to-follow UK business guides, links to our sources and tools to help you plan. We call each step-by-step guide a playbook. The library has four playbooks. Read the free sample before deciding whether to join.
You do not need a business qualification. This is information to help you make your own decisions. Membership does not include personal coaching, a business set up for you, or a promise that you will earn money.
What it costs
The planned price is £19 per calendar month including applicable tax. Once paid membership opens, you pay when you join and again each month until you cancel. There is no yearly commitment, joining fee or delivery charge. Your billing page shows the next payment date.
Paying for ChatGPT does not include Venture Manual membership.
Signing in and reading the guides
You need an internet connection, a current web browser and your own ChatGPT account. Sign in with the same account each time. Member guides normally open after a successful payment has been checked. Email us if you have paid but cannot get in.
Your plans and notes stay in the browser where you write them. They do not move between devices. Keep a separate copy of anything important.
Stopping your membership
Open My account, then Manage billing & cancellation. Follow the steps and check the end date. You can also email us with a clear request to cancel. Access normally continues until the paid period ends, unless an earlier end or refund is agreed.
Read Cancellation & refunds for the full explanation. We do not offer an extra money-back guarantee. Your rights under consumer law still apply.
Using the guides
Use the guides for your own learning and business planning. Do not resell them, post paid guides publicly, share your account or try to bypass the website's access checks.
Check whether an idea suits your skills, money and time. Example budgets and prices are starting points to test. They are not quotes or promises of profit. Read the source dates and check current rules before spending.
Updates and problems
We plan to add new guides and refresh existing information each month. If we plan to raise the price or make a major reduction in what members receive, we will give reasonable notice. You can cancel before the change applies.
If we close the service, we will deal with any unused paid time and any refund required by law. If something is wrong, email us so we can try to put it right.
Your legal rights
Nothing on these pages takes away your legal rights. This includes rights where content or services are faulty, wrongly described or not supplied as agreed. We do not exclude responsibility where the law does not allow it.
The law of England and Wales applies to these terms. Any protections and court rights that must apply where you live still apply. You can print or save this page.
These pages are being checked before paid membership opens.
