All your questions about mentorship, answered

What can a sharing economy mentor offer compared to a sharing economy consultant?

Typically, sharing economy consultants charge steep consulting fees. But sharing economy mentors take a “done-with-you” approach, empowering you to navigate the sharing economy landscape independently, which means you avoid the high costs of consultants or agencies.

Sharing economy mentors focus on:

  • Cost-Effective Expertise and Support: Mentors are passionate about helping others and provide support and advice for sharing economy ventures without the hefty fees.
  • Tailored Guidance: Your mentor will assess your unique situation and guide you through sharing economy tools and strategies step-by-step.
  • Actionable Advice: A sharing economy mentor provides practical advice, not just theory. They’ll show you exactly how to implement their recommendations.

What can a sharing economy mentor do for me?

Most sharing economy mentors bring years of industry experience.

These mentors offer the real-world experience needed to sharpen your strategies.

With a mentor’s guidance, the complexities of the sharing economy become manageable. You’ll gain insights into market limitations, regulatory hurdles, and features that resonate with customers.

For more experienced professionals, a sharing economy mentor can provide niche market strategies, detailed frameworks for testing, and advice on managing large-scale implementations. They might even share examples from their successful projects for you to learn from.

So you can achieve greater success with less time, testing, and money, no matter your experience level.

Why should I trust GrowthMentor’s mentors?

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.
