Default Entrepreneur Internships

We been getting a few calls recently about internships entrepreneurs are setting up. The way this works is that the entrepreneur will typically have a high-value course/program that someone would have to pay. The amount is usually $1000 or more. And it's really only beneficial to entrepreneurs who have a business or at least a business idea.

Of course, that price is high for TBF members. So one entrepreneur asked if members would be interested in an internship where they work for x number of hours a week for y weeks while learning social media and other things. And at the end of the internship, they would get a free pass into the $1000 incubator program.

Is this something you guys would be interested in?

That sounds a great idea Jack. Making people work for the pass will potentially also make the people who get the pass appreciate the internship more.

with $ 1000 which is a lot of knowledge and business skills, it's a low figure

Well, it sounds like something I would do, if I had the time, and knew a little more (i.e. to know if I have the time). But, considering that, for $1000 alone most people could start up their own business, so this is either a very expensive or incredibly valuable course.
