New Business

There are several different types of mentoring programs available on the market today. It seems that every self-proclaimed net marketing guru has created a mentoring program that they are willing to share if you are willing to pay their prices. The trick is reading through all of the hype in their advertising to find the mentor and program that will best suit your specific needs.

There are many different types of programs available. The program that will work best for you may be one of these or a combination of these or it simply may be the program that best fits your current budget. Some assistance is generally better than no assistance and the chances are that as you grow your business in baby steps, you will be better able to afford the more complete services in time.

First of all, there is the full service mentoring programs. Such programs can be found online offering monthly mentoring, online communities (where you can communicate not only with mentors, but other people participating in the program as well), audio courses, software to help you grow your business, the occasional motivational (get off your rear end) messages, and one on one support to help you discover where you want your business to go and the best path for you to use to get there. These generally require a heavier price tag and are more time intensive. They do however; offer the best potential bang for your buck.

The second type of mentoring service I would recommend is probably best for those who simply can't afford a full service-mentoring program (though I would seriously check them out before deciding as some are surprisingly affordable). This program involves simple one on one session with a mentor or ‘coach'. In these sessions you will discuss with your mentor where you want your business to go and brainstorm a method that you can employ that will take your business there. This is often a more affordable option but you don't get the bells and whistles you would with a full service program. It's a good start though and you can work up to the full service programs in time as your business grows.

The third and final type I will mention are online ‘courses' that mentors often offer. These are probably best for those of us who are so busy that we know we won't be able to take full advantage of the features offered through a full service mentoring program and yet are more of the ‘do it yourself' type who work best by reading and doing rather than discussing. For you, the courses will be succinct, to the point, and give you a good nudge toward growing your business, without addressing your specific needs. If you are good at reading between the lines and incorporating knowledge for different situations this may be a great program for you. Good luck finding the perfect mentoring program for you and your business.
