Masterminds: Why They’re Like Having a Crystal Ball for Your Business

Let’s say you’ve hit a roadblock in your business, and you keep trying out different solutions – but nothing sticks.

Now imagine sitting in a room with 30 to 40 remarkable online business owners, each bringing a unique set of skills to the table. You have the full weight of this collective intelligence to help you overcome any obstacles in your path.  

That’s the power of a mastermind.

Mastermind: A Term Not to be Trivialized

It has become trendy to label any high-end offer a “Mastermind.” However, as Napoleon Hill said in his best-selling book “Think and Grow Rich,” a mastermind isn't just a buzzword. It's a group of entrepreneurs helping each other take their online businesses to higher and higher levels. In a mastermind, you get to meet real people doing real, inspiring work in the online business world. 

When I launched the first mastermind back in 2010, it wasn't about crafting a high-end offer or a quick-fix business scheme. Instead, I used this mastermind as a way to stay on top of an increasingly competitive market.

This mastermind was my high-quality network, a group of like-minded entrepreneurs to collaborate, create, and innovate with. That was the real intent behind its creation.  

And now, years later, I’ve gained a long list of lasting connections. Plus, I get to stay on the cutting edge, gaining foresight into changes in the online ad space and emerging trends like AI. Overall, going to a mastermind event is like grabbing a crystal ball and staring deep into my industry's future.

How My Masterminds Evolved

I’m lucky enough to spend two transformative days with a committed group of online entrepreneurs three times a year. 

I've successfully orchestrated over 46 of these two-day meetings across my two high-end masterminds over the past 13+ years, and I'm not being modest when I say I've crafted one of the best mastermind experiences in the industry.

And at the risk of sounding self-serving for my own masterminds, I have yet to meet a single online entrepreneur who’s crushing it in their business and who hasn’t been to a mastermind event of some kind.

Mastermind: The Antidote to Entrepreneurial Loneliness

Let's face it: the entrepreneurial journey can be a lonely one. As your business scales and your results soar, it can become increasingly solitary. But being part of a supportive group like a mastermind can keep you engaged and focused for the long haul.

I can’t overstate the power of being in a mastermind. The time we spend together is both fulfilling and reaffirming. We have a saying in both of my masterminds: “It's good to be us.” And I wholeheartedly agree.
