We can all learn something from Toby. In order to really be successful in our businesses, we need to learn what methods we're using that work best and get most response. The only way to do that is to try different methods and analyze results. I'm not going to go into mechanics of coding ads to determine which are pulling better, best web design techniques, or other technical aspects of your marketing efforts. That information is easily available. What I want you to really learn from this is that you DO have to test your methods, record results, and STICK WITH WHAT WORKS!

Toby does - and he is always successful!

There is a lot of literature available of joining or locating a mastermind group. I personally belong to 4 separate groups... each with a slightly different purpose. I located or formed these groups by exchanging emails with like-minded individuals. I also met several members of my mastermind groups at conferences. The face-to-face interaction confirmed that chemistry was right. What is critical is that groups purpose be very clear to each member, and that group adhere to that purpose.

How do you, find or join a mastermind group, and begin achieving much more than you ever could individually? I would begin by asking those I frequently communicate with if they would like to work together on projects or form a group. I would also approach someone I admired or respected and seek their advice. If they were not part of a mastermind group open to new members, they could probably point you in right direction. They may also be open to serving as a coach or mentor for you.

Working closely with and contributing to a mastermind group has been a big part of my success and that of all of my very successful acquaintances. It's one of those obvious things you can't afford to overlook. Begin seeking out and cultivating relationships today. Instead of going it alone, learn to harness incredible power of mastermind!
