Small business owners often work by themselves while growing their business. It’s solitary work and getting discouraged is easy when feedback isn’t readily available or the last pitch didn’t win the contract. It can cause us to doubt our own talent. Self-assurance is especially important when we’re working on deliverables for our own individual clients.

You need a sounding board or an extra set of eyes. But calling your friends or former coworkers for feedback isn’t a sustainable model.

My goal as a Professional Mentor is to give my clients pertinent advice directly related to their chosen industry, identify their challenges and build up their confidence. I work with clients 1-on-1 or in a group setting with other business owners.
