If you want to be open, sharing the good, the bad, and the ugly in your business, while also getting to see behind the scenes of other people’s businesses, this may be a good fit. If you’re willing to talk about KPIs in your business and what’s working and not working, this may be the group for you. 1. If you can’t prove you’re at a million dollars in revenue, this is not the group for you. 2. If you can’t commit to three meetings per year, again, you should pass. 3. If you are a jerk, you and I won’t get along well, so save us both time and don’t apply. 4. If you can’t honor commitments, this isn’t the right group for you. I know that’s a lot of rules, but putting on this group is more about making sure the people who join are a good fit. How many people join is less important to me. If you think you may be a good fit, here are the steps. I have a few rules that must be followed:

fit check. Once they sign off on you, you and I can jump on a short call, and I’ll give final approval. This will help ensure the right people make it in and the wrong people don’t.
You will never be at the top of your game without coaching and a solid peer group.
That, though, creates another major problem. Where do you find a good coach and peer group?

I’ve struggled with this for years. Finding someone who is actually doing and not just teaching is hard. Finding a group that doesn’t have 50 or 100 people in it so you can get individualized attention is also hard. The worst things that can happen in a group are either that the info is not useful or just theory, or the group is so big you can’t actually get the help you need. With that in mind, due to a larger than normal influx of requests, I’ve decided to create a small group just for companies looking to scale. What do I mean by scale? If you’re looking to add strategies and tactics in sales, marketing, hiring, firing, and training of employees, team building, culture, and management, this is a group you should consider.
P.S. The nitty-gritty: There will be three meetings, two in Boise and one in Las Vegas (when it’s cold in Boise). The
first meeting will be on April 26 and 27. The exact days of the additional meetings will be agreed upon during the April meeting. The additional meetings will be in September 2018 and February 2019.
There will be other cool benefits, which we can send you additional details about after the application.
P.P.S. This is going to be a small group mastermind, so the seats will be crazy limited. If you have any interest, apply now to reserve the opportunity to join. NewsletterPro.com/apply
In order to survive in the intensely competitive contemporary marketplace, businesses need to be more nimble and collaborative than ever. There’s no time to play telephone around the office, hold unnecessary meetings, or constantly update members of the team about every little detail of a project. What’s more, as companies expand and workers begin working remotely, it becomes increasingly difficult to keep everyone on the same page.

day off or a manager reviewing productivity among your marketing team, you can track down old communications with a simple search. These archives also index any file that’s uploaded within the system, allowing users to search for keywords not only in the chat, but in any shared Word or PDF documents throughout the network. It’s just one feature of many that makes life easier. And that’s exactly what Slack does: It simplifies your life. With an attractive and easy-to-use interface, the program gets out of the way, allowing you and your team to interact clearly and rapidly with no obstructions. There’s simply no better way to build a space of transparency and synchronicity throughout teams, whether large or small.
member of your team who isn’t in the chat, it’s easy to tag any user across the network with a simple @ mention. Then, they can join, talk it out, and leave when their task is complete. So far, these features may seem fairly basic. Aside from the robust and crystal-clear implementation, which makes navigating the program a breeze, online chat has been around for years. But when you account for Slack’s wide array of additional tweaks and features to the common chat formula, it really shines. For instance, everything within Slack is automatically indexed and archived. Whether you’re a team member catching up on a project after a
Luckily, there’s Slack, a streamlined messaging app that gathers every communication across your entire company under a single platform. As many businesses are surely aware by now, Slack is perhaps the most hyped and lauded collaborative tool on the market, and with good reason. Let’s start with its primary feature: instant chat and messaging. The application connects users in real time, but it also understands that not everyone is needed for every conversation and that every discussion should not necessarily be accessible to the same employees. You can set up open conversations in both one-on-one and sub-group settings while restricting access to keep out unwanted or unneeded parties. If your group has a question for a particular
