You’ve probably been to a bunch of masterminds… perhaps even ones you’ve paid a lot of money to attend… and you end up spending your time giving and receiving advice from other attendees of your mastermind… most of whom are no further along in your business than you are.

How do you know if the advice from a bunch of people thrown together in a room at random is any good? Have they built multiple multimillion-dollar businesses?

The biggest problem with “masterminds” is that a lot of “information” you’ll get from the random people in your group you’re supposed to be learning from is actually misinformation.

People in masterminds regurgitate things they’ve heard that “sound good” in theory, but they haven’t actually built or done the thing you need help with. It’s fluff.

You need core business fundamentals that apply to where you are in your business, from people who have already “been there, done that.”

In other words, you need mentorship, not a mastermind.

A mentor is like someone who has been doing surgery for 25 years, chooses to retire, and now chooses to teach other surgeons. A mentor guides you from their experience of having already done what you need to do next in your business, not teaching regurgitated information. A mentor guides you from 25 years of mastery and condenses it to help you avoid the same mistakes. So you can duplicate what actually works.

A mentor looks at your specific business situation and tells you exactly the next steps you need to take next. While masterminds are randomized, mentorship is personalized.
