The Advisor Effect™
is a multiplier to the value you create.
What if you had known?
Every entrepreneur, founder, and CEO solves a million issues a year.
99% of them have already been solved by someone who’s been there and succeeded.
“The best growth hack I know is getting an advisor.”
- David Blinov, Agency CEO
It is about the process
At it’s best, the advisor effect exponentializes the value you create per hour, day or lifetime.
The effect is an outcome of the process of bouncing your issues to a wall of experience, while solving them
“As a first time startup founder the help I’ve received setting up the core of the business was crucial.”
- Iiro Kormi, Founder
An advisor, not the advisor
You may have an idol, a star or a hero. The Jeff Bezos or Zhang Yiming of your business model or industry
Here’s a hard fact for you: she’s not available. But that’s alright! The brightest star of your industry is often not the best advisor for you. Let them stay as your hero. Tell the advisor that too.
Who should be your advisor?
Choosing the right advisor is important, but not as important as having one. Engaging in the process, where a committed senior person knows your goals, listens to what you think is most important, and reflects on the options you see is the key to building the advisor effect.
We believe in an ideal where the advisor has a few years (7ish) more experience than you, experience from a similar industry/business model to yours, and is at a stage in their lives, when they want to engage in giving back.
Every CEO, Entrepreneur, and Founder deserves an advisor.
Why get an advisor through CEO one-to-one
The best advisor for you
Chances are your company will not lure in the best advisor available through your network or ads. We hand-pick our advisors for you. We believe in an ideal where the advisor:
has 7ish years more experience than you
has experience from being in the same position as you
has reached a similar goal to what you are pursuing
is in the stage of life, where they want to give back
The best advisor is not your uncle’s friend, not a corporate trailblazer, but someone who’s been there.
A ready-made process
If you get an advisor through your network or with announcements or ads, you’ll have to spell out the whole process: plan the meetings, topics, expectations and rules of engagement. Chances are both of you are doing it the first time.
Without a ready-made process, you’ll risk wasting the first 6 months of your relationship on the ground rules, and (for a serious advisor) pay a hefty sum in the process.
PLUS, what would hiring a professional with 7 years more experience than you, and an exit in the belt cost you through hiring?
Keeps you engaged
Our process is built so you get the most out of your advisor relationship. It makes the advisor’s work more efficient, but primarily, it makes you engaged with developing your company following the process that gets you to the ultimate goals you have in mind.
Working with an experienced, committed advisor in our process will keep you committed as well. Your time will never feel wasted, and your advisor meetings will be the most valuable time you spend working on your business.
