Yes I agree, you'd be a good fit. Last year I got talking to some really young (19?)guys that were starting a digital marketing company. They were hopeless, they were trying to network but didn't collect my details or have a business card to give me. Afterwards I was like 'damn, I wish I could mentor them or something'....I even had a plan to build their agency.
They could pick a business in the area, let's say a chimney sweep, & offer to build them a decent website & sort out the digital marketing for free, no obligation. They'd just earn commission on any NEW business generated & be allowed to use the biz as a case study of their work. It would be little effort to optimise the Google visibility of the biz (as everyone else is terrible at it), and get some decent reviews posted on Google and hey-presto! Instead they were trying to get commissioned for a monthly fee to do your dig. marketing...but they had no track record. What would people be paying for? Anyway I'm rambling but it would be the type of people I imagine helping with the B'ham Incubator.

Yes, it's such a massive learning curve starting a business, isn't it? So many different aspects, that have absolutely nothing to do with your key skills often, need to be mastered quickly. I was really lucky to get places on SPEED and EFS whilst I was still at uni and got a lot of mentoring through that. So many of these programs disappeared when all the RDA's were closed though - definitely time to restart!
