What is a mastermind group?
According to  The Success Alliance.com, “Mastermind groups offer a combination of brainstorming, education, peer accountability, and support in a group setting to sharpen your business and personal skills. A mastermind group helps you and your mastermind group members achieve success. Members challenge each other to set strong goals, and more importantly, to accomplish them.” So now that we know what a mastermind group is the next question might be where do you find one?

  1. Check Out Meetup.com - This is a great low-cost way to find a local group in your area.

  2. Check out Facebook Groups - This is also another low-cost way to find like-minded entrepreneurs that are in a mastermind you might be interested in.

  3. Network with other entrepreneurs virtually who are in the same or complementary business industries.

Working with a mastermind group can help propel your business to new heights. There are a few things you should do before you start looking for a group.

  1. Determine if you are looking for a general entrepreneur group or more industry-specific.

  2. Figure out if you want to belong to a free or paid group.

Once you do the two things above then you are well on your way to finding your ideal group. One word of caution, pick the right group that matches your drive, goals & mindset. it could be difficult to extricate yourself out of a group after the fact without ruffling any feathers if it turns out to be the wrong fit.
