Mastermind Groups Forming for 2012

Are you spending your time doing what your business needs most? Or are you spending your limited time trying to solve every problem that comes up? How do you even know what’s important?

Professionally Facilitated Peer Groups Prosper

Professionally facilitated peer groups have a long track record of return on investment—most get five to ten times (if not more) their return on investment.

Business owners who join Missoula Mastermind Groups can expect to:

  • Increase revenues and find new revenue streams during peer-to-peer strategic sessions.
  • Improve operational efficiency through strategic and pragmatic business coaching and consulting.
  • Improve profit by learning from other business owners before you make similar mistakes.
  • Solve long-standing problems through advice and learning from others’ challenges.
  • Decrease operational expenses through the use of recommended vendors and resources.
  • Revitalize your organization by uncovering solutions to existing challenges and strengthening weak areas of your business structure.
  • Increase business opportunities through expanded knowledge and networking.
  • THRIVE with the support of business peers who are ready to achieve the same success that you are.

 What Is a Mastermind Group?

A Mastermind Group is a group of people with a similar interest who want to achieve extraordinary goals in the next twelve months and help others do the same. Often they are lead by a group facilitator or coach.

The idea of a Mastermind Group was introduced by Napoleon Hill in Think and Grow Rich:

“The coordination of knowledge and effort of two or more people, who work toward a definite purpose, in the spirit of harmony.”

“No two minds ever come together without thereby creating a third, invisible intangible force, which may be likened to a third mind.”

Are You Ready for a Mastermind Group?

Do you have the passion to achieve what you have in mind for the future?

Do you have the willingness to change to get what you want?

Do you have the time and energy to devote to the group?

Do you have goals and a mission statement for your business?

What Are the Particulars?

Both virtual and Missoula Mastermind Groups will be starting in January 2012. Several groups will be created as the need arises.

Each group will consist of 4 – 8 members and a facilitator.

The groups will meet monthly for 2½ to 4 hours, depending on the size of the group. Location and time will be determined by the makeup of the group.

There will be an application process to join the group and only one business “type” (e.g. graphic artist, hair stylist, fitness instructor, etc.) will be allowed to join each group.

Casey Dawes, experienced business coach will facilitate and mentor each group.

Each group meeting will begin with a business topic presentation determined by the needs and desires of the group. (An example might be “setting up a budget.) After the presentation, each member will give an accounting of his/her commitments from the previous meeting, present his/her current problems for group help, set commitments for the following month.

Online resources will be made available to the group through a password protected area such as Google Groups.

The facilitator will be available for email consultation and brief phone consultation in between meetings.

The cost of the membership is $59 per month and a credit card must be provided at the time of registration. 

I’m Ready!  How Do I Apply?

Call Casey Dawes at 493-0257 or email her at casey@wisewomanshining.com to set up a time to have an application interview. Once your application is approved, you’ll be sent a registration form to fill out.  Your card will not be charged until after the first meeting of your group.
