Solo, Not Small. A course by Bhavik Sarkhedi.

You're a full company that hasn't hired anyone yet.

I run thirteen jobs alone, each on a system I built in Claude. This course gives you the same systems.

Where my work has appeared

  • 21books written, authored or co-written
  • 3companies built and sold
  • 25+countries my clients come from

What this course is

This course is a hybrid of you and AI.

You bring the judgment, the taste and the clients. Claude does the jobs a team used to do: your posts, your proposals, your research before a sales call and the welcome every new client gets. One person can now run what used to take a team of twenty.

People in tech are already betting on the first one-person company worth a billion dollars. Yours doesn't have to be a unicorn to change your life.

Don't take my word for it.

Drag to spin.Swipe for more. Tap a Reel to hear it.

What ate your week?

Your business needs systems, not more of your hours.

Tap every problem that cost you time last week. Each one turns over to show the system that fixes it, and the lesson that builds it.

Pick everything that ate your week.

Fine, convince me

Who's teaching

Check me before you pay me.

From an engineering job I didn't want to the course you're reading about.

  1. 2014

    An engineering degree, a job I hated and no plan.

  2. 2015

    My first book came out.

  3. 2016

    Started Write Right with two people and no outside money.

  4. 2019

    Left my last salaried job to run my own companies.

  5. 2021

    Sold Dad of Ad, my first exit.

  6. 2022

    The Unproposed Guy reached Amazon's humour bestseller list.

  7. 2023

    Sold Write Right, by then a team of 75. Featured in Forbes, and my story ran in The New York Times, in Modern Love.

  8. 2024

    The New York Times ran my story again. Forbes India took me on to write about AI.

  9. 2025

    Forbes named me among the top global personal branding experts. I joined the Fast Company Executive Board.

  10. 2026

    My third exit, and this course.

They brought structure to what can often feel like a rather personal and difficult process: understanding how one's professional identity should be presented to the world. What I appreciated most was their ability to listen carefully, ask the right questions, and translate complex ideas into a clear and coherent brand direction. Their approach was never superficial or formulaic; it felt considered, grounded, and respectful of the person behind the work. They helped me see how clarity, language, positioning, and presentation all need to work together if a brand is to feel authentic and credible. I would gladly recommend them to anyone who wants support in shaping a professional presence with care, intelligence, and depth.

I've failed dozens of times, so you don't have to.

Some of the mistakes happened on camera, so I kept them. Tap one, sound on.

You'll get a few things wrong in this course, the same as I did. Keep going.None of my systems worked on the first try. Each one took a few rounds of getting it wrong before it ran without me. The lessons show you where I tripped, so you trip less.

Learn AI. But also live.

The life the systems gave back to me. I've jumped out of a plane twice, bungee jumped, paraglided and snorkelled in the Maldives, all while running my business.

After you pay

    You answer them.

    In your own words, as rough as they come out.

  4. 4

    I send your own AI system, built on your answers, within 48 hours of your answers.

    It is set up for your business, so you start from your work, not a blank chat.

  5. 5

    Lessons and bonuses keep arriving by email as they release.

    Each one adds a system to the one you already have.

If you want AI to write for you, this course isn't for you. Every system here starts from your own draft.

Bhavik SarkhediQuestions I get

I already use ChatGPT. What's different here?

You're probably typing a prompt and fixing what comes back. Here, Claude reads your business, your clients and your voice file before you type a word, and it edits your draft instead of writing a stranger's.

Lesson 02: Claude that already knows you

I'm not technical. Can I do this?

If you can write an email, you can do this. Everything in the course happens in plain English inside Claude.

Lesson 02: Claude that already knows you

I don't have an audience yet.

You can start without one. Lesson 05 gets your site live, lesson 06 works on what Google and ChatGPT say about you, and lesson 07 shows you how to pitch the publications your clients read. None of them need followers.

Lesson 05: Your website, live this weekend

Can AI really sound like me?

Only when it starts from you. You write the rough draft or record a voice note, and Claude edits it with your voice file. Lesson 02 builds that file with you.

Lesson 02: Claude that already knows you

I don't have time for a course.

Each lesson ends with one system you set up that week, so you put it to work the same week.

Lesson 01: Solo, not small

What if it does nothing for me?

Do the first three lessons and build the three systems. If nothing changed in your week, write to me within 7 days of lesson three opening and you get your money back.

I live outside India. Can I pay?

Indian cards, UPI and net banking work today. Paying from outside India? Write to solo@solonotsmall.com.

What I say in it: I've been there, and I've done that. I started with an engineering degree, a job I hated, and no plan. Since then, I've written twenty-one books, and I've built and sold three companies. The New York Times ran my story twice. Forbes named me among the top personal branding experts in the world. Today, I run my business alone, with a system in Claude for every job a team used to do. For the last three years, I've worked with consultants, coaches, founders and dreamers from more than twenty-five countries, and helped them build a business around their own name. You don't need a team of twenty to run a real business anymore. You need the right systems, and one honest week to set them up. That's what this course gives you. Solo, not small.
