Mentoring

"Better than a thousand days of diligent study is one day with a great mentor" ~ Japanese proverb

Having the right mentors is like having a GPS for your business. They can advise at different phases of the business lifecycle from ideation, validation, launch and scale of both lifestyle concerns and scalable ventures.

Our mentoring program is simple by design and provides two categories of service. First, we help early stage ideas through our Advisement Mentoring which is great for a team that is still going through different idea iterations and early market analysis. Team Mentoring is reserved for businesses that are more developed, validated and closer to a launch and scale through our Team Mentoring.
