to experience the value of a Mastermind Group for yourself?



What is a MasterMind Group?

A MasterMind Group is like a 'virtual board'. Essentially it brings together non-competing businesses in a confidential environment where you can share your business issues and get advice from your peers.

It is facilitated by an experienced business person who knows what it is like to run your own business - how remote you can feel when the buck ultimately stops with you.

(Learn more about your host, Paul Green)

Who is it aimed at?

For business owners like you who, despite the economic climate, are looking to grow your business through 2012 by investing time working 'on' your business, rather than 'in' it.

How does it work?

The group will meet each month for 3 hours to discuss business issues with your peers; the intention being to leverage the combined experience of other business owners in the group.

In addition, you will have access to tried and tested marketing strategies, advice and mentoring/support outside of the meetings
from the host.

Why should you be interested?


Most business owners are being run by the business rather than the other way round; fighting the daily fires, dealing with staff, managing the finance - well you know what it's like!

The MasterMind Group provides you with an opportunity to take a more strategic view of your business and put an action plan together to move your business forward.

This is not a social event, it is a group of like-minded individuals taking practical steps to improve their respective businesses and be better than the competition.

Benefits of a MasterMind Group


  • Influx of new ideas and fresh perspectives.
Perhaps the most valuable asset a business owner can have to his existing business is a constant influx of new ideas and fresh perspectives from a group of peers he trusts and respects.

  • Staying positive and motivated.
The greatest challenge a business owner may face is staying positive and motivated even when the entrepreneurial seizure has ended. To give up a profitable business due to lack of motivation is perhaps the saddest thing you can do. The discussions and stimulation that occur can challenge and inspire you with high levels of energy, excitement and passion to keep you in the business.

  • Accountability and Responsibility.
Staying positive and motivated and to be charged with high levels of energy is important but not sufficient to bring your business to the next level. MasterMind Groups can act as sounding boards for your business decisions and hold you accountable and responsible till completion of your plans.

  • Shorten learning curve by a huge margin.
In an era where time is money, we have to learn double the things in half the time. By connecting with peers in a MasterMind Group who have similar experience, you tap, learn and benefit from others' input. This greatly shortens your learning curve by a huge margin and this process can be repeated with you sharing related ideas and experience to others in the future.

  • Relief from isolation.
Being a business owner can be a lonely and isolating place to be. Coming 'out of the woodwork' on a monthly basis, mixing with peers who have a shared experience will enhance your motivation, confidence and ultimately your continued business success. You will be involved in a mutually supportive environment.

  • Action based plans for your business.
Each month you will have the ability to discuss issues that are facing your business; the sharing of which will enable the group to explore potential solutions from a different perspective and provide specific actions than you can take to overcome such hurdles and move your business forward.

  • Develop better business relationships.
Working in such an environment over an extended period of time, sharing aspects of your business, will deepen the relationship between group members and potentially increase opportunities to work more closely with other business owners for mutual gain.

  • Tried and tested model.
There is nothing new with MasterMind Groups, they have proven to be successful for business owners across the world who partake in this type of group.



Testimonials from existing NABO Networking Members

"I actually thought the business network meeting was one of the best run I've attended and I was particularly impressed with the venue."

"Just wanted to say how great I think NABO is, particularly the support members provide round the table. At one of the recent ‘hot seat’ sessions where I put out an issue I was facing, I was overwhelmed by the good quality ideas given to me by members and even the referrals I was given both at the meeting and subsequently via email, almost straight after the meeting. It was splendid and I was deeply touched by it. Since then, I have applied some of the ideas and something positive has resulted from that one occasion. I will continue to explore those ideas and pursue the contacts provided. I personally think that NABO provides a great ‘relationship-building/networking’ forum and good dose of laughter, a great combination in these tough times, so many thanks! "

"I enjoyed the format of the meeting with break out sessions, networking opportunities, video topic review and the 'hot issue'. It certainly made a change to the usual tired formula"

"I went to my first NABO meeting this morning and was pleasantly surprised. A great meeting and mix of businesses. The venue was excellent too. I joined and looking forward to many more meetings"

"Having been told it was one of the best business networking groups, I was pleasantly surprised at receiving, upon registering, a short coaching video to be viewed prior to, and discussed during, the meeting. This prepared me for the excellent format that gave the comfortably numbered attendees 2 hours of highly supportive business mentoring/coaching. The group brainstorming was an inspired idea that answered some relevant issues for me around the topic being discussed. The atmosphere was extremely relaxed, thanks to Paul’s excellent hosting skills, and the venue was perfect, as was the full English breakfast. I fully endorse the NABO networking group concept and highly recommend it to all business owners"

"I thought it was a very interesting meeting and I do like the different format. I think a lot of businesses will find the training angle useful"

"I have attended three of Paul's NABO mornings and apart from his modest and not "in your face" style of delivery, itself a refreshing change, his commonsense suggestions to solving day to day problems that beset small businesses are very very welcome."
