Direction and accountability are key
After reading the Think and Grow Rich book, I got intrigued with the Mastermind concept. I did a bit of research in my area and found the Bay Area Mastermind. I have to say that Jeremy does a great job at providing the environment for growth. I am realizing that being part of a Mastermind group has several benefits. Accountability, sharing resources and ideas on how to deal with challenges for starters. We started in November and I have to say that defining in detail the direction for our business is the biggest benefit we have gotten so far. We highly recommend the Bay Area Mastermind!

The peer group I was looking for
This Bay Area Mastermind has been of incredible value to me. Having the perspectives of other smart entrepreneurs has helped me move my business forward way faster than if I were doing it just by myself.Jeremy has so much experience facilitating masterminds and the wisdom and care he brings to his mastermind facilitation make our meetings 100x better. Another great perk is that our monthly meeting venue - a private members-only club - is an amazing place to be. Even though we're working hard, our meetings are so enjoyable because of who we are with and where we are.

Don't go it alone when you can have an entire tribe cheering you on.
My journey as a new business founder is probably not that unique. For years, I was all over the place, following every piece of advice I could find online. I thought I was being productive, constantly tweaking my landing pages and sales pitches. But truth be told, I felt like I was wandering in the dark. It was like taking one step forward and two steps back. I had no clue what was actually working and what was just wasting my time. Can you imagine the frustration?As a coach myself, I should have found a mentor or a support group sooner. But I just couldn’t find anybody I trusted.That is, until I came across Jeremy's Founders Group. And let me tell you, it has been a total game-changer. In just two months, I've gained more clarity than I did in the past 4 years of running my business. It's like I finally found the missing puzzle piece, you know?See, it’s easy to find generic advice online. Figure out your niche, craft your unique value proposition, create a repeatable sales process, and put in a consistent effort. But trust me, following generic advice is useless if you don’t know how to troubleshoot what’s not working. Is it my sales copy? Am I targeting too broad an audience? Should I try paid traffic? Or post more on social media?You either end up changing way too many things together, or it takes forever to try every possible variation one at a time.But the Founders Group, oh boy, it's been a godsend. Not only do we get amazing guidance from Jeremy, our rockstar facilitator, but we also have this fantastic community of fellow founders. These folks have incredibly diverse experiences, and whenever I'm stuck, I just throw a question into the group, and boom! I get all kinds of insightful responses.I finally have support, encouragement, and a sense of community. It's not just about the business advice either; the genuine connections we're building, and the emotional support have been incredible as well.So, if you're a new business founder struggling to get your business to that first big milestone, Jeremy's Founders Group is where you need to be. Don't go it alone when you can have an entire tribe cheering you on.

We grew from 1 to 7 employees and 4X'd our revenue.
I joined Bay Area Mastermind after attending other mastermind groups and it was hands down the best business decision I have ever made.My company went from team of 1 (me) to team of 7, and we 4x'd our revenue.Also, I'm looking forward to the meetings every month.The level of conversations in the group is high, compared to other groups where people talk about technicalities or working in the business, we talk about working on the business, about growing the business, which is a big deal.I actually wasn't sure about joining because the website wasn't great, the name “Bay Area Mastermind” sounded fishy and I didn't want to waste my time and money.What convinced me to join was the fact that the average revenue of the group was 750k and I could try it out for one day.I thought to myself, if it's even just ½ of that, that would be great.It turned out to be higher than advertised, actually.I joined a few years ago and since then our business grew 4x and it's growing fast now.The group used to be one of my biggest expenses, now we spend more on testing and marketing every week.And I can honestly say that a lot of changes we've made originated in the group.And that's the biggest thing the group helps with - is finding out about problems you don't even know you have or will soon have. How do you do something well – if you've never done it before?We call it seeing around the corners. Talking to people who's hindsight is your foresight. Getting feedback from people who have done what you need to do and know exactly what to look out for, how to not make mistakes that you would naturally make, as a first-timer. This way you get 80% of the problems solved before they arise, and you cut your learning curve by months.The group is great for asking questions about operations, hiring, funnels, finances, getting directed to useful resources, basically everything to grow your business.Jeremy always helps catch and analyze mistakes, track progress, figure out what to do next, what to prioritize.The group is very friendly, people help each other out, there is no information hogging.If you are serious about your business and want to grow, learn and improve, it's a no-brainer.The biggest thing I regret is that I didn't sign up 2 years earlier because I didn't even realize how much I was missing and wasn't aware of.If you want to grow and 4X your revenue, you should sign up immediately.I would come in, and leave the meeting with the list of 3 key action items to double your business in the next 90 days.

Invaluable to your business growth
Bay Area Mastermind has been a great experience for me as a current member. The group has provided me with invaluable insights into various business operations and helped me to gain a better perspective on working on my business, rather than in it.One of the things I appreciate most about the group is the diverse range of businesses that get shared and covered. This has enabled me to gain a broad understanding of different industries and has provided me with the tools to develop and grow my own business.Furthermore, the other members of the group have been a valuable asset. Everyone brings their own unique perspectives and experiences, which have helped me to gain new insights and ideas. Jeremy, the leader of the group, has done an incredible job of keeping us challenged and encouraged, ensuring that we continue to grow and develop.Overall, I highly recommend Bay Area Mastermind to anyone who is looking for a supportive and challenging group of like-minded business owners. The group has been a tremendous asset to me, and I'm confident that others will find it just as valuable.

You owe it to yourself ...
Since engaged with the BayArea Mastermind, under the direction of Jeremy Shapiro, my business has 8x'd its profit, and I've watched others way out-step me. It's also taken my service and product offerings to new dimensions of quality. Jeremy is an exceptional mentor. He is a wellspring of resources and value-add's. The community fosters meaningful support and accountability, and its diversity prepares me for challenges I'd never imagine. Every month, I'm nervous and self-conscious about what I'm bringing to the Bay Area Mastermind, often feeling unworthy ... and every month, I leave inspired, confident, and feeling whole again. Better than my psychiatrist.

Best Mastermind for Business Owners!
Jeremy is a great host, facilitator and resource for this group. I have had nothing but success! The level of business owners that he attracts will really help you get a wide array of small business strategies and techniques and you can apply it immediately to your business. Highly recommend.
