• Have a business idea? Just getting started? (It’s awesome fun, isn’t it?) A lot of people would agree that this phase of business is the best part: the dreaming, planning, developing aspects of a new business excite all true entrepreneurs. If you’ve got that heady feeling, you’ll agree now’s the time to accelerate your great idea.
  • If you’re thinking of getting coaching help, then you, like thousands of others before you, realize that “two minds” can get you a lot further along your course vs. the lone wolf method.
  • After dozens of one-on-one coaching calls with clients, we discovered something earth-shaking: new start-up entrepreneurs share about 90% of the same concerns!
  • A great way to experience small biz coaching – without a costly commitment — is with Charting Dreams’ weekly small mastermind business forums and one on one coaching.
  • Sure, specific know-how is crucial to each individual business, but most new business owners have the same issues to hash out as they embark on the small biz adventure. That’s where our experience comes in with weekly “tele–discussions” on the factors and forces every start-up encounters; and a 60-minute one-on-one coaching call just for you and your business alone.

Held every week, the Mastermind Forum allows for dynamic, interactive teleconferences between start-up business owners (and dreamers) just like you. These calls give you the running start to successfully get your business off the ground. Jen McGahan and Sam Maropis host and direct discussions on topics that matter to just about everyone:

  • Home-based business issues
  • Renting an optimum space
  • Researching your idea, your markets and your competition
  • Creating a productive work environment
  • Balancing work/home life
  • Hiring employees and/or outsourcing help
  • Cash flow/finding money
  • Doing business on the Internet
  • Branding your business
  • Marketing strategies

Never fear; we have experience keeping conference calls on track. We’re committed to making sure each group of active participants is able to learn and grow from each others’ thoughts, frustrations, ideas and decisions. Our firm Charting Dreams is comprised of a cumulated 30 years facing similar concerns. And we bring our small biz experience to the table as each unique mastermind group convenes. Our commitment to each and every Mastermind participant is to tell it like it is. (We’re not here to be your best friend or sister, as well-intentioned as your closest family and friends are!) We always offer straightforward and objectively compassionate business advice as we see it. Our input is culled from three main sources:

  • Home-based business issues
  • Renting an optimum space
  • Researching your idea, your markets and your competition
  • Creating a productive work environment
  • Balancing work/home life
  • Hiring employees and/or outsourcing help
  • Cash flow/finding money
  • Doing business on the Internet
  • Branding your business
  • Marketing strategies
Included in the price of the Mastermind Coaching Program is one hour of one-on-one coaching each month scheduled to your convenience. After two weeks of forum participation, we will schedule your own personal call to address what’s on your mind: it’s all about you and your business! This is the time when you can get into the specifics and get feedback on your progress. Feel free to bring us any concerns you do not wish to disclose to the group; we understand your need for privacy. We will send you a link to your recorded personal coaching session after each monthly call.

Fabulous to work with! I highly recommend Jen McGahan to anyone looking for something outside the box. She is brilliant at brainstorming and developing your idea. Jen has provided wonderful work each time I have had a project with her. I highly recommend her firm for their professionalism, expertise and responsiveness. They were willing to ask questions if clarification was needed and ensured they were on track with my expectations. I look forward to working with them again soon!
