Why did you choose to join a Mastermind group?
Extraordinary things happen at the intersection of expertise.

What advantages does being a part of a Mastermind group offer?
The power of the mastermind concept is that it allows you to crowd source solutions and innovations from professionals outside of your field. Those 3 hours of creation and debate will elevate and accelerate your old ideas or help you find new ones to pursue.  Interested in being a renaissance business man? Try out a Mastermind Group.

Do you think your team can turn $500 into $1,000,000 by July 1st 2011?
I do, and I think we’ll be the first ones to do so. We’ve done a lot of planning, and are ready for rapid execution.

What gives your group an advantage over others?
We’re a perfect storm of expertise. I remember sitting in the meeting where Peter and Dean were explaining the contest and getting a sidelong glance from Investor X. We had both realized at the same time that our group was a business making machine.  We run the full gamut from formally educated business consultants to self-taught business mercenaries. Together we’re like that thing the Power Rangers turned into. Unstoppable.

What else would you like people to know?
Every story needs a mystery, in this story that’s team Nexus. What won’t be mysterious are the strategies we use to win. You’ll see a wide range of investments here, well explained, that will culminate in delicious victory. (The winner gets cake, right?)

Why did you choose to join a Mastermind group?
Curiosity mainly, but also for the expanse of my network here in Kamloops

What advantages does being a part of a Mastermind group offer?
A test-bed for ideas

Do you think your team can turn $500 into $1,000,000 by July 1st 2011?
All the way to $1,000,000? That’s a 20,000% return for the year. I’d say it will be pretty tough to get that kind of return…. But we are mysterious, and we have mysterious ways.

What gives your group an advantage over others?
We have no delusions about what this is or what we are doing. A strong collection of varied skills and training make us an unstoppable force of intrigue.

Why did you choose to join a Mastermind group?
It’s a Kamloops innovation with great potential.

What advantages does being a part of a Mastermind group offer?
It’s been a profound education in everything from marketing to public relations. Looking to keep ahead of your competitors? Try a Mastermind group. Mastermind solves the problem that most people who “think” they have a great idea need to face: third party perspective.

Do you think your team can turn $500 into $1,000,000 by July 1st 2011? – Why or Why Not?
We will if Race to a Million gets the kind of exposure it deserves. I’m confident in our team, and our plan.

What gives your group an advantage over others?
We’re thinking on a larger scale than our competitors. Wait until you see what we launch with – I think even our competitors will be tempted to help us.

What is most exciting about being a part of the first ever Race to a Million? What are you most looking forward to?
The most exciting part for me is getting to work with the powerhouse group that is Team Nexus. We think big and have a great time planning our next moves.

To whomever is reading this: consider this a bribe. If you have an idea you think we should execute, shoot us an email. If we use it, we have a fine bottle of scotch with your name on it.

Being able to brainstorm ideas with other successful businesspeople who have a different perspective on your own ideas is a great way to develop new business ideas.

Do you think your team can turn $500 into $1,000,000 by July 1st 2011?
