[00:01:02] Speaker B: Thank you very much. Excited to be here.
[00:01:05] Speaker A: Thank you for being here. So what is the best piece of advice you would give to someone just starting out in your industry?
[00:01:12] Speaker B: Starting out in my industry, I'll give you the biggest piece of advice I took myself, which is to get a mentor and to get the right mentor instantly. Like I feel a lot of people are just trying to figure out by themselves whether they're trying to save money or I don't know, whatever the strategy is. But the biggest thing and the biggest change for me was not only getting a mentor but getting the right mentor who you know is going to work with you one to one is going to, you know, someone who just cares about your success and who is ahead of you. If they have those two qualities, then yeah, you're golden.
[00:01:49] Speaker A: Yeah, I think that's an amazing advice.
And I think also that you mentioned keyword the right mentor. Like yes, get a mentor, but get a the right mentor. I, I do a lot of analogies and I studied martial arts for 30 years so I relate everything to karate.
And seeing a great instructor helped me figure out who at not so great instructor was. So now I go to credit schools and I'm like maybe I should not train here. So what would be an advice for you? Or like how, how can people differentiate a good mentor versus a bad mentor? How can they find the right mentor for them?
[00:02:38] Speaker B: Yeah, I think there are a few factors and I think honestly one part of it is just intuition. Like you'll Just know when someone's not the right coach for you. Like you said with the karate instructor like you, you'll just get these like kind of off feelings. But if I had to give anything practical, it's probably.
I prefer it's not like a must, but I prefer if my mentor is someone who is actively practicing what they are teaching. So it. Let's look at copywriting. Right? They're not only teaching copywriting, but they're also working with clients. They're also writing copy themselves. Right. That's a big one. And the second one is like, not only do they have results for themselves, but for other people who have followed the systems and the processes and the frameworks that they've laid out. Like, do they have student results? Right. Is it a repeatable process that's not just going to work for one person, but has it worked for tens of or maybe hundreds of people? Right. So I feel like that's my biggest advice. But just going back to, you know, the overarching theme, it's like you'll, you'll just be able to tell, like it's hard, but once you're in the situation, you'll just be able to tell.
[00:03:44] Speaker A: Someone who talks to talk and walks the walk.
[00:03:47] Speaker B: Exactly.
[00:03:48] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, that's. I think that's. You nailed it on that one.
And also not only that toxic talking was to walk, but also has had results for themselves and for the people that they mentor and like good results. Yes.
[00:04:05] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:04:05] Speaker A: And have that bar high, I think.
[00:04:11] Speaker B: Exactly. Yeah.
[00:04:12] Speaker A: Well, thank you. That was good advice to get a mentor. I don't think a lot of people to say that say get a mentor. I say a lot of people who are like, oh, get a life coach. But yeah, yeah, you just get a mentor. So Henry, tell us about who you serve and how people can reach out to you.
