  • how to construct lessons, lesson plans and exercises for optimum student learning

Ask Karyn Anything

Over the years, and especially this year with the economy so precarious, small business owners have asked me all sorts of questions about growing their business. In fact, they've asked so many questions that I can't answer them all!

So I thought this month it was especially important to have a call where you can ask me *anything* about growing and running your business -- for free!

Here are some questions we covered last month:

  • "What are the best marketing techniques for 2009?"

  • "What is the best way to use social networking sites?"

  • "How can I tell if I have competitors for my new business idea?"

  • "How do I stay firm when quoting my fees?"

  • "What are the best ways to market my mastermind group?"

I can't wait to discuss the answers to your questions!

How to Create and Run a Mastermind Group

There is synergy of energy, commitment, and excitement that participants bring to a Mastermind Group.

The beauty of Mastermind Groups is that participants raise the bar by challenging each other to create and implement goals, brainstorm ideas, and support each other with total honesty, respect and compassion. Mastermind participants act as catalysts for growth, devil’s advocates and supportive colleagues.

In this three-session teleclass you will learn how to:

  • Choose which type of Mastermind Group to create

  • Determine if your Mastermind group will be free or paid membership

  • Market to attract members

  • Choose participants

  • Construct different types of meeting agendas

  • Create group policies and procedures

  • Determine your role

  • Deal with difficult members

  • Tips for facilitating discussions at meetings
