Let Us Help You Grow an Amazing Business

We'll show you how to put the pieces in place to operate your small business successfully. You'll find free training, events, interactive tools, a Mastermind community and much more. We cover sales, marketing, operations, finance and staffing - and we make it fun. Join us!

What You Get from this Community

Mastermind Group

This is a free group helping small business owners and entrepreneurs to learn from each other. No time commitments required. Join in when you have a few moments. Bring questions you can't get answered anywhere else.

Online Events

Need to learn how to do something? Or simply want informal coaching? Perhaps you'd like to connect with peers and ask questions live. Our events are tailor-made to connect you to the best and brightest no matter what the expertise.

Self-Guided Courses

Taking courses online is a great way to learn. Ours are fun, fast and geared toward small business challenges and opportunities. You learn just what you need. Since they're self-guided, you can take them when you have time, at your own pace.

Monthly Challenges

Each month you'll be presented with a new challenge you can master and then apply to your business. Learn how to set and track key performance indicators, how to interview and hire, how to drive profitability and more. Our structure makes it easy to stay on track.

Goal Setting 

Setting goals for your business is crucial. After all, if you don't know where you're going, how will you know when you've arrived? But goal setting doesn't have to be hard or boring. Our goal templates make it a breeze. Use our free goal setting templates for your business.

Scorecards

Ever wonder how well you're doing? Our templates, calculators and self-assessment scorecards make assessing your progress fun and interactive.  See how much progress you've made, and where you stand to learn more.

Benchmarks

Need data to see how your business stacks up? How much do others spend on certain expenses? How much growth is realistic to expect? Our community surveys yield valuable data to help you evaluate how well your business is doing compared to your peers.

Transparency

We pledge to be open and transparent about everything we do -- from our traffic stats, to our growth, to our failures. This Community is itself a business, and we want you to learn from our successes and mistakes. Check out our stats and reports.

What it takes to run a Mastermind

Having started a Mastermind group using Skype years ago, I have a pretty good idea of what draws people. An inviting environment. The best minds. People willing to share. I think you'll like it here.
