Hello there, amazing person! I have yet to know how large the pool of mentors here is however I can say one thing and that is that, no matter what you need.There's someone out there that specializes in your preferred area, whether it's within psychology, technology, branding or just business general, there's always someone out there.
You just have to be confident and keep on checking and before you know it, you have the best mentor ever in-front of you. So if your question is Clarity a good platform for it? I'd say yes, it's just up to you to choose which person fits you!
And from me to you, my friend. You already did the first step, so now you only have to do the second step as well and you'll be on your way towards success more than ever before! :)
The mentor pool is quite large in clarity, you can choose from 40,000+ experts or mentors on various topics related to business.

What is the best way to find a mentor? Do you ask and if so how do you approach in way that would provide value?
The best way to find a mentor is to look around in your industry and see who you feel has accomplished what you're setting out to do, and that you gel with the way they did it (values, brand, etc). "Ask for money, get advice. Ask for advice, get money twice" ~ Pitbull If you can get a warm introduction, do that. If not, you can always cold email them with a specific issue that you want advice on .. ideally it's something super relevant to their life experience and interesting enough to get their attention. Never ask them to be a mentor. Mentorship usually develops over a couple meetings and is informal. The value to them is to give back to the next generation. As long as you listen, execute on their advice / or not, AND follow up - then they'll continue to give you some time. Mentors are best for those large life decisions that most people turn to their parents too ... those decisions are interesting for most noteable people to give you 15 minutes on a call to discuss.DM

How do I become a mentor at 500 Startups?
As a 500 Startup mentor I would suggest the following 1) Blog about distribution, design and data. Those are the things that 500 values most and usually the fastest way to get on their radar. 2) Interact with @davemcclure (and all other partners) on Twitter 3) Attend geeks on a plane or other events they host. It's all about relationships and perception, so create opportunities to increase the probability of showing them that you have skills that are relevant to the companies they invest in. Hope that helps.DM

How can I be a good startup advisor/mentor?
I was born a maker, and I've been an Entrepreneur for six years now (and a wannabe for much longer before that) and I think the worst advice I've got was from people who had never taken a step of the journey. People with academic (or other) credentials who advise you based on theory and completely miss the point of entrepreneurship. They know about the theory of sales funnels and marketing strategies and much more but they've never made a cold call. Or a sale for that matter. The best advice I received was from my godfather, who is an entrepreneur and salesman. That advice was simple, brutal and actionable: "If you can't sell it to a customer, how do you expect to sell it to a salesman ?". That made me realize that you don't stand a chance at success if you can't convince anyone. A good startup advisor understands all of the field he's advising about and knows what a startup is. He knows how to apply his knowledge to the constraints a startup faces and how to deliver that wisdom in regular words to support the startup's decision process.LU
