The programs
Four sprints, one bias toward action
Every session ends with things you'll do before the next one. That's the whole method.
Validate the idea
Talk to real buyers, test whether the problem is worth money, and kill or sharpen the idea fast.
See the programFirst customers
A repeatable way to reach people who might buy, a discovery call that converts, and a pilot offer they say yes to.
See the programPricing & offers
Package the work, raise prices without losing customers, and stop competing on being cheapest.

How it works
Weekly pressure, in a good way
Advice is cheap and everywhere. What's rare is someone who checks whether you did the thing.
A sprint plan
One goal for the engagement, broken into weekly actions with dates.
Working sessions
Live sessions where we work on the real thing — the deck, the call script, the price.
Accountability
You report what happened. We adjust, and you go again.

How we work
A mentor, not a course
You can already watch a hundred hours of startup advice for free. None of it looks at your funnel, your pricing or the email you're afraid to send.
Mentrio is one person working on your specific business, every week. We'll tell you when the idea needs to change and when you just need to make twenty more calls. We don't take equity and we don't promise outcomes.
Frequently asked
The questions we get most
Do I need a registered business first?
No. Plenty of clients start while validating an idea. Once you take money, we'll tell you to talk to an accountant and an attorney about structure — that part isn't our lane.
Do you take equity or finder's fees?
No. You pay a monthly fee and that's the whole relationship. We don't invest, broker paid introductions, or take a percentage.
Will you help me raise money?
We'll help you sharpen the story and the numbers you present. We don't introduce investors for compensation and we can't promise a raise.
What if my business is offline?
That's fine. Local service businesses, studios and shops all fit these sprints. The channels change, the method doesn't.
How much time does it take?
Between 5 and 10 hours a week depending on the sprint. The sessions are the easy part; the actions between them are the work.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. No contract, no minimum term. Access stays open until the end of the month you already paid for.
What's actually blocking the business?
Twenty-five minutes to find out, and an honest view on whether mentoring helps. Free.
