Inspired by Mary’s story? Ready to launch a business of your own? Already in business and ready to scale up?

The M5 Academy and M5 Entrepreneurs is an opportunity to learn directly from Mary and to connect with other small business entrepreneurs. Choose from either the Business Boot Camp for entrepreneurs just starting out or the Small Business from Scratch course featuring three different education modules and 76 chapters of content and resources.

Brian and Mary Heffernan spent years in the business world in Silicon Valley before becoming cattle ranchers six years ago. They built a new model from scratch to raise and sell their ranch raised meats directly to customers all over the country by selling online and shipping.

This course includes everything they’ve learned to build and grow a Small Business from Scratch, especially in the agricultural arena - from formation and branding to social media and shipping - in an easy to follow online course with video modules as well as companion workbooks, links, downloads and an online community of like-minded entrepreneurs to offer support, discounted rates and guidance along the way. Complete with practical information and resources to take your business to the next level no matter what stage of business you are in and the tools to do it efficiently and cost effectively.

Mary and Brian are passionate about empowering entrepreneurs with the the tools to build and grow successful businesses from the ground up and to inspire agricultural business owners to fulfill and continue to grow their small business dreams and find profits quickly. They offer live Q&A sessions in the community and are active in the platform daily to help guide and answer questions.

Mary says : “I get asked often how to successfully start a business on a shoestring and make it work, how to build a business from scratch and how to balance everything. There is no short answer. It’s a lot of work - but with the right direction you can go into it confidently, one step at a time and make it happen. In this course, I offer guidance and advice on how to actually make a living by starting and running a small business from scratch - without requiring a lot of outside professionals. With a strong foundation and doing things right from the start, and by learning the tools to do these things yourself… 

YOU CAN DO IT!”
