What our clients say
"Thank you for this incredible service that I would have had to pay thousands of dollars for."
"The mentors did an amazing job of breaking down what the important steps are to take next."
"For me, this all starts with the mentor that was assigned. He has been outstanding in all aspects of what a beginning entrepreneur would want. These aspects include active listening, good questions, great insight and the ability to keep the conversation light but yet focused. I am so grateful to have had him to meet with while I am building my business to launch this year."
"She was professional, welcoming, respectful and without judgement."
We discussed the SOP, hiring process, nonprofit and for-profit structures, and various areas of the business plan for my company. What he does exceptionally well is understanding problems and helping to solve them. I really value his expertise in business. Compared to mentors I’ve had in the past, this one is a perfect fit. He helps me stay motivated, ambitious, and driven. He’s also played a big role in improving my mindset and clarity. Before having a mentor, I felt all over the place but now I feel much more focused and clear on our direction for my business."
"Kept the conversation focused and helped me identify what was working and how I could build upon that to grow my business. Thank you!"
Colleagues are a wonderful thing - but mentors, that's where the real work gets done
