Paddling Furiously is a community of business owners (and future owners) working together to gain the knowledge and skills they need to succeed.
We launched this community because starting a business is scary and, quite frankly, no form of education prepares you for it. What gives you an edge? Learning from someone. Our hope is that the collective knowledge of others who have been in your shoes navigating incorporation, through hiring, taxes, and many other challenges will help you avoid many of the errors the rest of us have learned from.
We’ve been in your shoes. We’re business owners and mentors who know the highs and lows that comes with entrepreneurship and going out on your own.
Starting a business is a thrilling and sometimes terrifying experience. To do it well, you need to not only have a great product/service/platform/etc but a solid structure around it.
Our Community Form is a place you can ask questions and get answers specific to your unique situation from people, not LLMs.
Our Resources section contains stories from entrepreneurs like you plus guides on commonly asked questions like the differences between incorporation types.
Our Startup Support provides simple and cost effective products to help you get your company off the ground, supported by people who understand small business life.
