Thank you for stopping by! I am so excited to share why it is so important to choose the right mentor for you! Have you been trying to decide if a local or long distant mentor is right for you? Well, I am here to help with that. I will have several new posts over the next month or so talking about the mentor relationship, what to expect from your mentor, etc. Keep an eye out for them!
Honestly, to me one of the most important steps in building your Origami Owl® business is to choose the right mentor! I started this business with a mentor that went MIA right after I signed up. I do not ever want to have anyone go thru that. I now have a long distance mentor that is the perfect fit for me.
What is a local mentor? That is someone who is within driving distance to you.
What is a Long Distance mentor? They might be in your same state, a state next to yours, in your region, or across the USA or maybe even overseas stationed on an APO/ FPO/ DPO, they also might be in driving distance, but chances are they probably are not!
Ready for the pros and cons of the different mentors?
{{The Pros}} of having a local mentor:
{{The Cons}} of having a local mentor:
It is important to keep in mind they are also working in the same local market as you. {Which can be competition for you.}
Does the above sound like the perfect fit for you? Then I would highly recommend you choosing a local mentor.
