How to find the right mentor?

Here's a quick rundown on how to get your first client; First: Conduct Target Market and Prospect Analysis. This is the most important part. Most people never spend enough time on this. You need to have a clear understanding of your target market and who your prospects are. All that work doesn't sound fun or sexy, but fuckin do it. Second: Run A Competitor Analysis relevant to your niche. The internet is full of trash so make sure you research the winners and not losers. Third: After collecting all that data from the last 2 steps. Create a minimum viable offer based on the research you just did. Then ... Fourth: Get your ass out there and start getting as many people to and to hear about you. Start off doing Discovery or Strategy call's Post on Social Media channels, Facebook, LinkedIn, or Alignable offering your sessions In-Person Events Answer answer questions and help people here Keep at it consistently, then you'll get more than one client. It's going to take some effort, but be consistent and you'll be surprised at how many client you can land within 1-2 Months. Lastly, DON'T be like the 95% of people on facebook, instagram and just the internet who sells and gets a client but KNOWS THEY CAN'T provide what that client needs. Separate yourself from the losers, be honest and have some integrity. Which will work overall better for you and gets you more clients because your legit and can be trusted. TLDR: 1) Conduct Target Market and Prospect Analysis 2) Competitor Analysis 3) Get Your Ass Out There and Prospect (Assuming your not a marketing badass like yours truly) 4) Offer As Many Free Sessions You Can (Except Here) 5) Be Consistent and Don't Waver 6) DON'T BE A DOUCHEBAG Call or Don't Call. Just hope that helped s you out!!

Hi there. I am a small business strategy consultant, with loads of experience working with startups, like yours. What kind of coaching are you doing? Is it something you need to do in-person, or can it be done by coaching over the Internet or phone? The Internet is a fabulous way to do things at a low-cost. Not only to actually provide your service, but also to market it to a large audience. If your business is something you need to do in-person - then make sure you use the various low-cost options available to you online to get yourself a presence. There are tools, like wix.com, which will allow you to build a free website and give potential customers a way to find you and contact you. Also, if you are an expert in your field, make sure you are blogging and getting your information out to the public as frequently as possible. This will increase your ranking in search engines and make you appear like a true thought leader. If your coaching can be offered online, make use of free tools like Skype - and embed them within your website. You can take customer payments through Paypal and similar cheap online systems. There are many tricks to launching a low-cost business. Many depend on your specific requirements. Feel free to give me a call via this service if you want more information. Regards Simon

STOP!!! DON'T DO IT. GO GET A REAL JOB!! PLEASE! You don't plan to be a consultant. You become a consultant because the experience and wisdom you have is so obvious that those around you are eager to pay you for your insight. It's a calling -- not a job. Giving your "business advice" to a startup is like telling a 2-year-old to go "poo poo in th potty" -- anyone can do it. You just have to be a little bit more sophisticated than a baby. To service people who have money (and who are serious about how they spend that money) you need to take you game to a whole new level. I suggest you intern or partner with an amazing consultant who does this already. Learn. Do the gritty work that no one else is wiling to do. Everyone is a coach. Right? Drink a beer on game day and you supposedly know more than than the dude on the sidelines with the clipboard. But is that "really" the case? Of course not... DON'T BE A COACH. BE A LEADER.
