The problem it solves
Many entrepreneurs struggle to find peers who understand their challenges and can provide guidance, making it difficult to learn and grow effectively in their business endeavors.

The market, and why this works now
Established entrepreneurs with over $3M in annual revenue often lack access to peers who can relate to their specific challenges. The rise of remote work has made virtual meetups viable, allowing these entrepreneurs to connect without geographical constraints. A first-revenue move could involve advertising in the "Entrepreneur" magazine's online edition to attract potential members. Founders may face challenges in establishing credibility and trust within the first 12 months, as potential members may be hesitant to join a new network without proven success stories or testimonials.
