Discover why having a MENTOR is the No.1 thing Australia’s Top Business Women Do To Stay Focused and Successful Bonus tips on how to find YOUR ideal mentor. Limited time.
70% of business owners who use Mentors will survive in business twice as long as those who don’t.
Your business has grown and created new issues you’ve never had to deal with before.
You are ready to ditch the feeling of being "overwhelmed" all the time and you're craving some focus.
You are at a crossroad and you need someone you can trust to help you figure out “what’s next”.
Our faculty of Mentors are hand-picked, experienced entrepreneurs who’ve already travelled the road you’re on and have successfully dealt with the challenges you’re facing right now.
When you start with your Mentor, you receive a detailed Diagnostic which helps you see how you’re faring in 8 key business metrics and enables you and your Mentor to focus on those areas where you need the most help.
All sessions are virtual, so that means you can always ensure you can speak with your Mentor, even when you’re travelling or if you live in a regional or rural area.
You can add more sessions as you need them. Simply commit to 4 sessions to start and then you have the flexibility to continue (or stop) as you need to.
Business owners who do use Mentors are 20% more likely to experience growth in their business than those who don’t use Mentors.
Since 1998 we here at HerBusiness have been scouring the country looking for Australia’s top female entrepreneurs and honouring their achievements by inducting them into our Businesswomen’s Hall of Fame. After compiling a survey of the responses from these highly successful business women from the past 16 years, we began to notice ONE THING they consistently did to:
And that ONE THING was seek out Mentors!
It was striking how many of our Hall of Fame inductees listed this ONE THING as the key piece of advice they’d give to other business women looking to emulate their success.

I’ve personally always had Mentors, right from my early days starting my first business in a spare bedroom in my house!
They’ve helped me avoid mistakes and then picked me up and helped me correct my course when I went wrong.
I can’t imagine how I would have achieved what I have
without them.
That’s why I’m so passionate about Mentoring as a way for business owners to really make a difference in their lives and the lives of others.
Whenever I am asked what is the missing link between a promising businessperson and a successful one, mentoring comes to mind.

I Now Have a Closer Relationship With My Customers
Mentoring has given me a closer relationship with my customers and fans, it has helped me show my expertise in my field and helped me develop my voice.
Catherine Abel, Catherine Abel Artist
My Mentor Supported and Guided Me
I found the environment of accountability extremely rewarding. My mentor supported and guided me to think beyond the horizon I had created. I loved that.
Belinda Weaver - Copywrite Matters
Mentoring Has Given Me Confidence in Myself
My mentor pushes me out of my comfort zone, and I have taken so many leaps that I wouldn’t have taken by myself.
Fiona Keary, Style Liberation
Increased Revenue, More Clients, and a Bigger Team
I think the best thing about this relationship is just having someone to work through the challenges with. Rather than give me the answers, my mentor poses the right questions and helps me work out a solution. Then I am able to truly learn for myself.

Mentorees are women business owners. The Mentoring program is recommended for those with at least 6 months of business experience, who have an established business with a viable revenue stream. Mentors are invited to take part in mentoring. Applications are carefully considered based on the mentors’ business experience. Mentors may be men or women who have owned and operated their business for a minimum of five (5) years in Australia. Mentors can be located nationally, even globally.
Mentorees are matched to Mentors who have expertise that matches the Mentoree's course objectives and who are in a non-conflicting industry to that of the Mentoree. Once you decide how many mentoring sessions you’d like to start with, you’ll be asked to complete a short questionnaire that outlines your short and long-term objectives for mentoring. You’ll then be matched with the most suitable mentor.
No, regardless of what age you are, if you meet the eligibility, you can participate in mentoring.
Mentoring can be conducted face-to-face or using new media technology. The choice about how you meet is yours and your mentor’s and depends on availability and location. Our goal is to match you, no matter where you are located, with the most suitable mentor who can help you achieve your business objectives.
One-on-one mentoring is available in 4, 8 or 12 sessions at a time and on dates convenient to you and your mentor. If you choose any of the mentoring packages (4, 8 or 12), you can always add on mentoring sessions if you wish.
Mentoring packages are available in bundles of 4, 8 or 12 one-hour sessions. The prices are outlined in the webinar. You can also take advantage of the Special package you see above, which includes a number of valuable bonuses including an online diagnostic, a 45-minute Diagnostic Review, a detailed report that shows you how your business fares across 8 key business metrics, and a 30-day pass to the HerBusiness’ Online Learning Centre — a storehouse of over 100 hours and thousands of dollars of online business training that you can access for a whole month at no charge. Remember, our mentoring services are backed by a 100% Money Back Guarantee. So, if you let us know that the program is not for you you get a 100% No Questions Asked refund - making it a totally risk-free offer for you.
Once you have booked your mentoring sessions (choosing from 4, 8 or 12 sessions — or take advantage of our special offer) you will receive a call from our office to talk about your mentoring. You will be asked to fill out a short questionnaire that helps us match you with the best mentor for your business. (While you can nominate a mentor, we find it best to first determine what your goals are so that we can help match you with the mentor we know will help you reach your goals.)
A mentor is someone who’s been places that you’re planning on going in business — someone who has experience in the areas that to you are uncharted. It’s their wisdom and ‘experience’ that you will be calling on. In some cases, Mentors have networks and contacts that can help you in certain areas - but even if they don’t, they will know where to go or how to approach finding the right expert. Mentors are not employees. Generally, they are very busy individuals and will help guide and support you - but they are not there to ‘do’. That is your job. Think of your Mentor as someone who is wise and ‘muse’-like. A Mentor is someone you can trust with the issues facing you and the difficulties you might find hard to speak with someone else about. They have had experience building a business and so they know what it’s like. A Mentor is a wise set of ears and a wise sounding board.
Mentors apply and are selected through a criterion-based application. Mentors will be in business or will have been in a successful business for a minimum of 5 years. Each Mentor is chosen based on his/her expertise and matched against the Mentorees' objectives outlined in their Application Form. Mentors enter into a signed confidentiality agreement to address privacy, conflict and business sensitive issues.
It’s totally up to you. We offer a minimum of 4 sessions (a number we have found will help you deal with specific areas of business and see you make some great gains). We recommend monthly sessions with a minimum of 4 sessions. After this time, and depending on your goals, you may wish to add more sessions. Each mentoring session is one hour in length and is conducted via Skype or telephone.
Mentors are very different to Coaches. The main difference is that mentors have ‘walked in your shoes’. All our mentors have started, managed and grown their own business and understand the small-business point of view. Traditionally, coaches are good at holding you to your goals. They don’t necessarily come from their own experience though, as a mentor does.
