Crash, burn and rebuild
The brutal cost of bad LMS planning
Building an LMS without a solid strategy is a financial and operational disaster. What starts as a bold move quickly spirals into delays, runaway costs, and a platform that falls apart.

What follows is a cascade of issues that stall growth:
Bad UX frustrates users → They stop engaging
Poor scalability → Growth slows or goes backwards
Delays kill momentum → Competitors move ahead
Forced to rebuild → Lost time, money & trust
The Innovator Blueprint
Your shortcut to a high-impact LMS
Most LMS projects crash and burn because they rely on guesswork instead of a clear, strategic roadmap. The Innovator Support Blueprint eliminates the risks, giving you a proven framework to build an LMS that launches faster, performs better, and scales effortlessly.

Frequently asked questions

Question not answered? Book a call.

Does it take ages to deliver?

No. While generalist providers may require months to work out how to actually deliver your vision, as a specialist LMS studio, we've already done it 200+ times. Scope Starter can be delivered in under a week

How much time do I need to put in?

About 2 - 8 hours in total, depending on your package.

What if I'm not technical, or I don't know what we need?

That's fine, you don't need to be technical or know what features are required. Tell us your goals and we'll work out the rest. Many of our deliverables will use simple language for non-technical stakeholders.

Who should I invite?

You, plus up to 4 others. We encourage you to bring those most invested in the outcomes of the product and those most influential in the budgetary and decision-making process. This helps us to deliver great work, be efficient with your time and avoid blockers.

What happens after?

If we decide to move forward together into the full build, we'll have everything we need to draw up agreements and get started. If for any reason we decide not to move forward, that's totally fine - you're free to deliver the project by other means with the strategy we created for you.

Not happy with your Blueprint?
We’ll refund you, 100% risk free.
