SPIN Virtual Masterminds Groups Forming Now!

Picture
We hear you, SPIN members! Many of you are unable to attend quarterly Think Tanks regularly, but still want a way to connect with other members.  SPIN is excited to announce the second round of our private, SPIN-only Mastermind groups!  

Do you struggle with something and wish you had your own Board of Advisors?  SPIN Mastermind groups are designed to help each member achieve goals and overcome challenges through candid advice, brainstorming among your peers, accountability, and a strict code of privacy.  The SPIN Masterminds program will arrange groups of four to eight members who all share the same challenge or goal (marketing, SMMP, accountability, book writing, etc.).   Members meet via video chat, so you can 'meet' with your group even if you're on the road.

Cost for a 6-Month Mastermind

  • Elite Members: Free 
  • All Others: $90 (equals $15 per month)

  1. Individuals register for the SPIN Masterminds program during which they identify their biggest challenge or goal for the next six months
  2. The SPIN staff matches groups accordingly (we try not to put you in the same group with local peers; this is a chance to interact with other SPIN members across North America, since you meet via video conference)
  3. The SPIN staff help each group to identify the best times for monthly video conference (Third Thursday, First Tuesday, etc.)
  4. SPIN creates a private group toolkit for each Mastermind group
  5. SPIN provides each group with access to a free private video conference system (webcam required)
  6. SPIN provides each group with a private Dropbox account where they can share documents, track progress, or work collectively
  7. A SPIN staff member will join the first group call to set ground rules and help the group establish their goals and objectives
  8. The group then meets independently via conference call once per month (or more often if desired) for a total of six months
