Christian discusses with Shawn Thomas (Nashville, Tenesse) on following topic:
Where is the value in mentoring for bootstrapped startups?
The key reasons young entrepreneurs are failing:
1) feasibility study not done
2) market fit not clearly identified
3) lack of sales knowledge
4) no business experience
5) lack of situational awareness
6) lack of access to other people's business experience
Entrepreneurs who have a lack of experience and funds benefit from a mentoring community as it allows them to access knowledge and advice at an affordable cost.
That is why you need to make sure that when choosing a mentor you ar talking to someone who really has business experience other than selling mentorship / coaching services.
