    Resources for the road ahead.

    Education, business tools and professional connections that help you make informed decisions.

    Education & MicroMBA

    Build business fundamentals with free MicroMBA learning provided by OLP and taught by Juan Olmedo.

    Builders Boardroom

    Join OLP’s free WhatsApp contractor community to collaborate, exchange advice and support one another; there is no OLP membership fee.

    Technology planning

    Identify software and communication tools that fit your goals, skills and budget before making a purchase.

    Core5 on LaunchpadOS

    Complete a free AI-assisted assessment of your business situation, goals and challenges to generate a Core5 Business Map. LaunchpadOS hosts Core5, not a separate paid offering.

    OLP provides its consulting, planning and learning support. Business Made Simple uses Donald Miller’s externally authored materials, with OLP-funded course support for qualifying clients. No-cost consulting does not automatically include commercial implementation, regulated professional services or software subscriptions.

    Free support through Operation Launchpad

    OLP provides up to 10 hours of no-cost consulting per individual across its business pillars, free MicroMBA learning, a free Core5 Business Map on LaunchpadOS, and free access to Builders Boardroom. Consulting remains subject to program eligibility, scheduling and advisor availability.

    Core5 & Builders Boardroom

    Core5 uses an AI-assisted assessment of your current situation, goals, challenges and business plan to generate a Business Map. LaunchpadOS hosts Core5; it is not a separate paid offering. Builders Boardroom is a WhatsApp community where contractors collaborate, share guidance and connect with one another. OLP charges no membership fee; any work members arrange with each other is separate from OLP’s free services.

    External course scholarships

    Business Made Simple and Small Business Flight School use Donald Miller’s paid online learning platform. Qualifying clients may receive a full OLP scholarship covering the courses and one-to-one and group coaching by Juan Olmedo. A completed assessment, a score strictly above 70% and manual review are required. Not qualifying for this scholarship does not, by itself, exclude you from OLP’s free consulting, MicroMBA, Core5 or community.

    Optional private consulting — separate from OLP

    After the free consulting hours, clients who wish to continue working with Juan Olmedo may separately hire AETLAS Business, his privately owned, for-profit consulting firm. Its retainer or as-needed fees are paid directly to AETLAS Business, not OLP. Hiring that firm is not required to receive OLP services or be considered for a scholarship. OLP receives no referral commissions from AETLAS Business or Business Made Simple; these private payments are not donations to OLP or represented as funding its nonprofit programs.
