Mentoring offers a host of benefits including gaining industry insights and developing new skills. Here at Springwise, we have published many innovative mentoring platforms including a platform that links college applicants with current students to offer course advice. Another example is a platform that widens access into creative careers by connecting creative professionals with people from disadvantaged backgrounds.

A new on-demand mentoring platform called GrowthMentor matches startups and entrepreneurs with growth marketing mentors. The platform aims to help anyone anywhere in the world to succeed with their ideas by connecting them with experienced mentors. It offers users a casual one-to-one conversation via any communication platform, including Skype, Zoom or Google Hangouts.

Growth marketers with at least five years of experience can apply to become a mentor. Users who apply for mentorship can choose between purchasing slots of 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 60 minutes. Mentors can be filtered based on a number of factors. These include technical skills, industry, language spoken, the length of the session and the session objectives. Users can then ask their mentor for business advice, career advice or advice about any specific software. The platform saves users time and money as it provides answers to short-term problems on-demand. In addition, if users are too busy to hunt for mentor, they can also post requests and wait as mentors with the appropriate qualifications apply to help solve their problem.
