Gifting systems may offer different structures and marketing tools but the one common thread among all successful communities is a strong mentoring program. All the tools in the world won't do you any good if you do not know how to use them. Knowledge is power but wisdom is what separates the achievers from the average. A mentor should be able to tell you how to apply the knowledge which they have accumulated from their experience.
The mentor is the ambassador of a gifting community. They formally introduce you to their club and will provide you with the vital first steps so that you may become acclimated to the program. Access to a back office which contains introductory tutorials and marketing tools will be supplied by your mentor. They are your lifeline to a group.
You can best judge a mentor by determining their intent. What attracted them to cash gifting? Why are they taking part in this practice? Ask them as many questions as possible. It's extremely important to get a feel for the mentor's motives because they are your "live teacher" should you have any questions which aren't covered in the online tutorials. Are they a slick marketer who is only self-promoting or do they embody the true spirit of gifting, which is giving? You need to know that they have your best interests at heart. Ensure that these questions are answered before you decide to join a group.
Read up on the mentor's knowledge of cash gifting. Do they understand the practice and are they explaining it effectively? Research their blog or check the capture page for articles demonstrating their expertise. Read their biography and get a feel for their others interests. You can learn a great deal about a person by observing their hobbies.
A mentor needs to be someone who is both knowledgeable and trustworthy. They should demonstrate that they are an authority in their field and that they will share their store of information with you. Find a person with these qualities and you will be able to experience the wealth and happiness which cash gifting brings.
