Karim Ismail - Keep Any Promise
"My fellow entrepreneurs at the Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group have provided me with great insight with a new business venture I am launching, providing much more clarity regarding my vision and how best to execute a launch plan. They have also provided invaluable CEO level contacts through their networks that I would have never been able to reach. At VERY meeting, the learning on the part of all members is staggering, with very helpful suggestions around difficult issues faced by entrepreneurs."

Steven Albiani - The Haunn Group
"TheToronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group has to date has been a positive experience for me and my business to be a part of. It is rare to have the opportunity to meet on a regular basis with individuals that share the same passion for building something beyond themselves. The group has given me a network to critically think about opportunities and issues providing a proactive approach to my business strategy. I appreciate being held accountable for the goals that I set in my business by the group because the end result is seeing those come to fruition quicker."

Louis Trahan - Last Minute Training
"Being part of the Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group connects me to advice and expertise of other professionals who really CARE about my success. Mentorship groups like these are an indispensable part of starting a business today."

Mark Ellwood - Pace Productivity
"I have always believed that the people I know contribute to my success. The Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group has allowed me to expand my network and meet some very successful entrepreneurs."

Raye Ackerman - ITS Dispatch
"Since becoming involved with the Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group, it has truly been an eye opening experience to see that other business owners like myself, are struggling with the same daily challenges. Our group is quite balanced and we have some members that have already dealt with many of my current issues and offer great input and advice on how to work through them. Ultimately, the group acts as a great motivator to keep me on track and accountable for financial targets and to ensure that issues that I plan on dealing with are dealt with... (No later than the next meeting!)"

Mark Arteaga - RedBit Development
"One of my biggest challenges with running a business is who do you turn to when facing a business challenge? Who do you turn to when you want advice? The best source is other entrepreneurs who are willing to share their past experiences and challenges. That's what you get at the Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group. The group always has feedback on business issues and has given me the opportunity to critically think on strategies to grow my business, set goals and be accountable for those goals."

Max Kalles - WSI Quick Net Solutions
“The Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group gives me the ability to interact, share, and learn from fellow business owners who have the same problems and challenges that I face as an entrepreneur on a daily basis. The group helps me to set goals and an action plan for my business, and then holds me accountable for achieving those goals.”

Mark Drager - Phanta Media
“As an Entrepreneur, who do you turn to for advice? Family members? Friends? Ex Co-workers? In most cases they don't understand the challenges I'm facing because they haven't been there. The Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group is made up of Entrepreneurs who HAVE been there – they've faced the challenges that lay ahead of me and through shared camaraderie will help me overcome them.”

Dr. Anna B. Baranowsky - Traumatology Institute
"As a Clinical Psychologist, my background did not provide me with any business training. In the Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group I have found a tremendous resource of people who are willing to discuss all aspects of running a business. There is such diversity among the members who range in their professions as well in the development of their businesses. So we all learn about every stage of business development and the idea generation for complex problems is an enjoyable and worthwhile exercise every time. Bravo Evan for putting together such an terrific program."

Onkar Sandhar - ChaiBerry® Massage Co.
"I really enjoy my monthly meetings with the Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group. It's vital for us business owners to network & brainstorm with other executives from different industries to get a fresh perspective on what works and what doesn't in the world of business."

Alfredo Arias - Flash Fog Security
"My experience with the Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group has been wonderful. Our business has evolved in important ways from insights discussed at a meeting. The members really complement each other, and at the end you get refined ideas that you can put to use immediately"

Simon Payn - Ready to Go Newsletters
"I have made thousands of dollars by being part of the Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group. Why? Because when I go there I get great ideas followed by a swift kick to the butt to put those ideas into action. I added a major product line to my business at the start of the year after the group reinforced and prompted me to implement an idea that had been knocking around my head for months. That product will probably become 50% of my revenue in the next year. This is the great thing about meeting regularly with a group of smart business people: the members bring street-savvy advice to your business that comes from a perspective that is outside your business. To anyone walking the lonely road of entrepreneurship, that kind of input is extraordinarily valuable."

Michael Nguyen - Sprezzatura
"The Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group is a place where successful entrepreneurs in different industries can leverage their different knowledge set. It is a place where I go to discuss and formulate ideas."

Kris Schantz - Happy Worker
“The Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group is a cross between a league of entrepreneurial superheroes and a no-nonsense support group. My own strengths and weaknesses are checked by my group mates, who actively support and motivate me to meet my targets, be a better entrepreneur and a better person. Before I joined the group I was a 150-pound business weakling… now look at me! Beefcake. Beefcake!!”

"The Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group is a peer group haven where I have been able to seek fellowship with others who face similar challenges as I do as an entrepreneur. I see our group of trusted and respected advisors (who in turn receive advice from me) who are passionate about making their business grow and at the same time impartial and objective (no agenda) about giving me advice about mine. There is a practical as well as an emotional benefit to belonging to this group because I leave the meetings with a sense of having been heard and listened to. I also receive great new information, insight and most importantly, inspiration about how to run my business better based on hearing stories and getting advice from the others

Furthermore, I must applaud Evan's deft facilitation he always has the best interest of the group in mind when introducing new members and ensuring that there is an environment where we can be as open and comfortable as possible. Evan also is able to provide invaluable input/advice and summarizes well and keeps the meetings on track when intense discussions could blow the agenda of the meeting out of the water. As a bonus, my knowledge of internet marketing/SEO has greatly expanded as a result of participating in Toronto Entrepreneur Mastermind Group."
