An alternative to super expensive Tableau consultants

Typically, Tableau consultants charge a high consulting fee. But Tableau mentors work by the “done-with-you” approach. This method allows you to learn how to use Tableau on your own, eliminating the need for expensive consultants or agencies.

Tableau mentors will focus on:

• Cost-Effective Expertise and Support: Because mentors are passionate about helping others, they’ll provide you with support and advice for Tableau without the steep fees.
• Tailored Guidance: Your mentor will examine your specific situation and provide step-by-step walkthroughs of Tableau’s functionalities.
• Actionable Advice: A Tableau mentor won’t leave you with a bunch of nonactionable theory. Instead, they’ll walk you through exactly how to start implementing their advice.

Most Tableau mentors have worked on hundreds of dashboards and reports over their careers. Some have even been using Tableau since its early days.

These mentors have the real-world experience you need to give your data visualizations an edge.

With a mentor’s advice, Tableau’s advanced features will be less of a mystery. You’ll understand what limits your dashboard’s performance, how to avoid common pitfalls, and what visualizations best represent your data.

For more advanced users, a Tableau mentor can walk you through advanced calculations, detailed frameworks to test visualizations, and how to manage large data sets. They can even show you examples of their own work so you can learn from them.

So you can create impactful visualizations with less time, trial, and error, regardless of your experience level.

When it comes to Tableau consulting, traditional consultants typically charge between $100 to $200 per hour, depending on their level of expertise and reputation. And when you’re already investing in software licenses, the costs can add up fast, especially for startups who need ongoing support.

In contrast, GrowthMentor offers a much more affordable and flexible solution. For just $99 per month, you get unlimited access to dozens of Tableau mentors. This flat monthly fee means you don’t have to worry about hourly rates and dread charges for follow-up calls.

Tableau Consultants:

• Hourly Rates: Typically range from $100 to $200 per hour, depending on expertise and reputation.
• Total Cost: For multiple sessions, costs can quickly add up, making it expensive for startups and small businesses.

GrowthMentor:

• Monthly Rate: $99 per month for unlimited sessions.

GrowthMentor also allows you to connect with different mentors, rather than locking you into an exclusive contract with a consultant. You can chat with a variety of experts and learn from their perspectives.

By choosing GrowthMentor, you’ll get continuous, tailored guidance from experienced Tableau pros, all without the hefty price tag. Which means you have more in your pocket to invest in other business needs.

Excellent question. After all, the “mentorship” world is full of high-priced consultants, armchair analysts who have never done the work themselves, and outright snake-oil salesmen looking to make a quick buck.

But, there are plenty of experts out there who want to share their experience and knowledge. At GrowthMentor, we’re lucky to have 700+ of those experts.

The secret comes from our vetting process. We not only double-vet all of our mentors so only the top 3% makes it through our process, we also look at their soft skills. Because no one wants a mentor who’s a snob or a jerk.

On top of it, 85% of our mentors don’t charge an extra fee. Why?

The short answer: Because they want to help people.

The long answer is because…

• They enjoy sharing their knowledge
• They learn from their mentees
• They want to be a “force for good” in the business world
• They want to pay it forward

But don’t just trust our word on it. Hear from the mentors themselves.
