Who is your greatest Mentor?

[soladollar]

Hello everyone,

For someone to be successful in life they have to follow some l;aid down principle... Which automatically leads us to having a mentor... Every business man (Regardless of the type, whether online or offline) needs someone to look up to; someone to shape a business around.

WHO IS YOUR GREATEST MENTOR?
WHO DO YOU LOOK UP TO FOR ADVICE?
WHO IS YOUR ROLE MODEL?

[guopei01]

Hi soladollar

You asked a splendid question! Here's my answers: My role model is Mr Lee Kuan Yew ( the mentor minister of Singapore), but generally much as I wish to, he's not available for advice. My greatest mentor so far is my father, and the person I look up to for advice...well...again my father!

[dean_holland]

Hey Soladollar

My mentor is Alex Jeffreys of Post Launch Profits...

As you can see on my blog or in the few threads I have put in the forum I am having amazing results


After only 7 weeks I have my own product on my blog and have made over $2k

I urgently agree that people need a mentor, even if it is someone to hold you accountable.

Alex has made over $250,000 in less than 2 years online.. Now that success I look up to and wish to follow !

GET A MENTOR PEEPS !!

Good question.. Well done

WHO IS YOUR ROLE MODEL?

Craig Desorcy of Make Money Online The Honest Way and a member of the Warrior Forum for all of the above. Now here's the why:

1.) He saw something in me and lent a hand to me on my very first foray into eBook publishing without asking for anything in return.
2.) He tells me when something's fishy and I need to watch my back.
3.) He spoonfeeds me with great ideas I hadn't thought of.
4.) He cares about my state of mind and if I'm off track, he gives me a swift kick in the ass to get me back.
5.) He doesn't promote things just for money - he promotes what works, period.
6.) He makes me learn things even if I don't wanna! Wah! (But that's what good teachers do). Most recently, he sent me two great books to force to learn what I abhor most - sales copy!
7.) He's just good people. You gotta be able to trust and look up to your role model.

Hi soladollar

If it is mentor for online business then for me it is Mack Micheals a marketing mentor. He uses easy step by step video coaching in his coaching program to setup different types of online business and unique ways of promoting products.

Cheers to your success !

Dang, I really wanted to check him out, but his site is closed to new members! What a mean trick

[Scott84]

I don't have a very good mentor at all, but life must go on. At 24 this is a stumbling block but the system I have in place has everything I need to succeed it just would of been helpful to have my mentors techniques (which he brags about so much through autoresponders) to get traffic to my site.
A huge learning curve and when I start getting the knowledge of internet marketing I am in a promise to myself that I will never leave my recruits floundering as it is a horrible and lonely experience.
Anyone who is interested in starting their own business in whatever niche, one important research is on your future mentor, ask questions directly about the opportunity, products, marketing and how they progressed right from scratch.

Any advice on how to best market an extensive range of e-books,graphics,audios,videos ETC . View the link and get in touch.

[Andrew Maule]

Chris Everson, Eben Pagan and Frank Kern, I don't know the last two in real life though but they provide kick ass info so I have to give it to them.

[Anthony Smith]

Chris Everson and Destin Cribbs, my partners in many ventures, i appreciate their help and etc. if it wasn't for them i wouldn't have the opportunities i currently have, nor would i be here! Very knowledgeable guys.

[redicelander]

I don't have one. But desperately want one and soon. But I will not be duped into some scammer.

[aboutalhah]

For me, it's those two:

1. Mark Ling,

2. and Eben Pagan.

Franck

[NiallR]

Hard question to answer but two people I would consistently listen to are:

Colin McDougall
Michael Campbell

Consistent, no BS and proven money earners who don't need to flood your inbox promoting every super duper, mega launch to earn money. They do what they teach and make money from it.


On the WF I have to give Hamida Pall a mention of course. Genuine, very clever and helpful :-)

[Tenzo]

Well, I don't have a mentor per se, but I've learned a lot from Dr. Mani. If I am looking for specific info, he is one of my go to marketers.

Kevin

I only listen to Frank Kern and his emails...no one else. Why? I like the guy, he lives the lifestyle I want, has the likable personality, works smart, and gives great free content in an easily digestible manner.

Plus, he actually RESPONDED to a few emails at one time and I was shocked. That simple gesture won me over.

He gets my vote.

[Louis Raven]

I'd have to say the WarriorForum as I don't really look up to anyone or follow a specific "someone".

This forum made me over $40.000 (top of my head , more or less) so I owe it to here.

Quite simple really.

Eben Pegan is "the man". I have learned a lot from him when I was struggling with my "who am I, where I am going" questions. He used to teach dating as 'David DeAngelo'. Great guy.

Eben was / is DeAngelo? Really? Didn't know that. Wow, great. I haven't bought any of his stuff, but I was at a time really impressed by the whole PUA thing.

Your blog is a money maker

nonsense.

i do this full time and never had a mentor and don't follow anyone.

the only way I've found success has been experimenting with things I didn't think existed, keeping what works, throwing out the rest, and doing it again.

many people figure it out themselves.

[markquinn]

Nikhil Parekh who influenced my thinking about automation, outsourcing, and building a team and who continually drives home the idea of focusing on your long-term business model.

It's also been an inspiration for me to watch Michael Brown scale up his business so quickly AND get yelled at by him alot to stop relying on my affiliate commissions and make my own products.

Thanks, Michael. Keep yelling at me. LOL.

The word Mentor gets thrown around quite a fair bit in the business world especially internet marketing. Sorry to be a geek but the word "mentor", if you do a word search actually means something like "A loyal teacher/coach/counselor/friend".

I personally dont yet have someone im physically talking to and or seeing about my goals, aspirations and seeking insight from. But like most of us here, i read plenty of books, watch videos etc.

A teacher can come in many forms...

My favorite at the moment is Frank Kern. Simply because i like clean cut no BS no sugar coating teaching. And also the fact that he, like myself spends his days wearing flip flops and realizes that life is also about having fun and not just making money. Basically he is not an arrogant tosser and hes always trying to add humility to his programs. Adding to this i think he is one of the best copywriters and internet marketers out there today.

One other big one which is from a totally different industry is the famous chef Gordon Ramsey. Again for the reason that he too does not sugar coat things and gets straight to the point, also a very funny guy. What i like most about Gordon is the fact that he understands his business so perfectly, its a marvel. A true professional.

Meditation also is a great teacher, hoping not to intrude into peoples personal beliefs, but i really do get much from meditation. Just the simple process of sitting down taking some deep breathes and then letting it all flow. There are many different forms of meditation and many different things you can try to achieve through it. When you enter the vast corridors of your consciousness and bring back certain pieces of data its then you realize the true potential inside all human beings. The answers i believe are in all of us.

Hi All,

My greatest mentors are my students!

We all think we know a lot (at what we do) then there comes a question which stumps you... if you're intelligent you jump aboard the opportunity to learn the answers to these questions, they make you wiser, then give you more wisdom and knowledge yourself.

People at seminars always ask me "why are you so smart?"... "how do you know so much?".... I credit a LOT of what I do from the students I've taught, and the students of mine who teach me (each and every day).

Hope this helps!

I don't have any mentor.

I'm just participating of rums and reading a lot of blog post.

My role model is JOhn chow and Jeremy Schoemaker.

[DavidJBrooks]

I've been learning a lot from Michael Cheney, he gives a lot of good information delivered with passion and good humour

[gcjmarkets]

Good questions;

The person I look to and try to role model after eventhough I have never met him is John Delevera creator of the Turbo Line of products and JVM 1 and JVM 2 Fantasos. The reason is because he creates and markets products that provide real benefit and he takes care of his customers.

The person I go to for advice is my father

I sure hope so!

LOL

My apologies to the OP. I've just gone so long without a Megan Fox post, I had to get it out of my system...I mean...just look at her!

So, for those who know his story, one of my mentors goes by the name of Neil Peart. Genious, Courageous, Stand-Up Guy.

I haven't seen him in several months...August 07, I think it was.

Might get some bad responses, but mine is Mike Filsaime. Reading his stuff gets me in a positive mindset and that puts my productivity way up.

Not in person, Allen! I was watching "R30" on Saturday. I haven't run into Neil, Geddy or Alex since the 1980's when I was still doing some showrunning for Gulf Artists and Silverstar Productions.

See my PM for more info.

With respect,

No they don't.
No it doesn't.
No they most certainly don't.

Christ! Where does this stuff come from? The three questions in upper case are fair and stimulating questions, but please don't prefix them with such nonsense. There have been enough examples of limiting views and misinformation around here lately without adding to the quagmire of business ignorance, fatalism, nincompoopery and numptiness!

My mentor is research.

Just by using a bit of assertion and elbow-grease, I can, over time, clearly see what is working best and what to do in regards to any target process.

The internet makes this quite easy.

Other than that, and faith references aside, I find that my most influential "mentors" haven't been a specific person - or words that someone has said.

No, it's the collaborative effect of watching people ACT when they're confronted with real life shit.

Whatever it may be.

You find out real quick what someone's real colors are when they're looking down the barrel of a loaded, figurative, gun in life.

I've seen a few people crumble that were highly-esteemed previously, and I've also seen surprisngly "non-esteemed" people display incredible intuition, intelligence and integrity.

And vice versa.

So...

I guess my mentor is LIFE.

At any given time, an individual role-model or "celebrity" WILL fail you. Or at least your standards of what they should live up to. Because they're human.

This is why it's important to know what YOUR ideals, YOUR values and YOUR goals really are.

Then you can take a little here, a little there and so on from a VARIETY of people and experiences so that in the end...

...you can live a full life that makes you happy.

And hopefully you die in your sleep.

The end.

-Chris

[Asher]

WHO IS YOUR GREATEST MENTOR?

and others.

WHO DO YOU LOOK UP TO FOR ADVICE?

God.

WHO IS YOUR ROLE MODEL?

My pastor and my dad.
