What a mastermind teaches you that no book or course can

Being in a room with others on the same path as you is a game-changer.

If you've heard "proximity is power," that's because it's true. Being in others' energy fields is where walls come down and breakthroughs occur.

I am super pumped Zoom is a thing and I can meet with people around the world in the comfort of my own home, a cat on my lap, and my favorite Texas Pecan coffee.

However.

Being in the same room with like-minded people creates an energy that is impossible in a virtual setting.

Which is why, although Zoom is easier, faster, and less involved, I get my mastermind together in-person twice a year. We break bread, strategize, laugh, and sometimes cry. We focus, identify, and grow. All of that takes place--must take place--together.

One thing you'll want to do is have an in-person component. I talk all about that (and how to do it without driving yourself batty in here).

If you're curious about how a mastermind fits with your book and companion. Of course I'll tell you ... tomorrow. :)

Until then.

Reading time: < 30 seconds I'm on the clock, so this has to be brief. Let me get right to it: Your book should lead to your course or companion (or both), which should lead to your mastermind. They aren't stand alones, they are apart of your system. Better, your ecosystem. I realized, once I had each one in place, that I can help more people with more repurposed content. People are unique and cool--they all learn in unique ways. Repurposing my content allowed my audience to learn in whatever...

Reading time: < 30 seconds As I mentioned, the Empire Builders Mastermind (EBM) was born in 2019 with just six people. I didn't have a massive strategy--my "big marketing push" (and I do detest when someone says, "I'm going to 'push' this..." 🤮) was a Facebook post. One other thing I did was to make a list of people I thought would be a great fit for my group. Then I called and invited them with a brief description. I didn't have a numbers goal, I had a "perfect fit" goal. I wanted people who...

Reading time: < 30 seconds About eight months after I launched Building a Million Dollar Book Business I attended a really cool conference. RIP, Tribe Conference. A sub-topic of the conference was masterminds, and one of my long-time readers looked at me and said, "If you had a mastermind, I'd be in it!" In my shock, I said, "Why?" Her reply, "You have an empire and I want one. You own it, it doesn't own you, and so if you start a mastermind, I'd be the first to sign up." Long story short,...
