CHALLENGE CHAMPIONS

How to go from Tallo member to Challenge Champion — with only one answer.

Challenge Champions get early access to opportunities, exclusive resources, and a direct line to what’s next on Tallo. Invites only go out to people who show up.

What Challenge Champions Get

Exclusive Challenges

Priority Access

Be the first to know about future prizes, opportunities, and Tallo initiatives. Champions get priority consideration for everything we launch.

How to Get In

This month’s series runs in three parts — two entrepreneurs, two completely different business models, one honest conversation about what it actually takes. Royal owns a franchise with a team and a storefront. Matthew works alone from a basement office in Missouri. Both built something from nothing.

Jump into the July series in the main Tallo feed and drop a real answer on each episode’s prompt. This month, there’s something to win just for participating. The most thoughtful responses also earn a direct invite to Challenge Champions.

This month’s questions look like this:

Which reason would motivate you most to start your own business, or maybe it’s just not right for you? (That’s totally okay!)

What’s the smallest version of a business you could actually start this summer — and what would your first “touchpoint” be?

What’s your honest take on the tradeoffs? Both Royal and Matthew say this life isn’t for everyone. Better to find that out sooner than later.
