How do I get suggested to more members?
GrowthMentor suggests mentors to members through AI matching and as "Our pick" on the member's Home page. What counts most is answering requests fast and keeping the calls you accept. You also need open time in the next 30 days.
What does matching look at?
- How fast you answer. A quick yes or a quick, kind no both help.
- Whether accepted calls happen. Keeping the time you agreed to matters more than anything on your profile.
- Open time in the next 30 days. Members are matched with mentors they can book now.
- A recent call. A call held in the last 12 months, or being new.
- Fit with the member's problem. Your specialties and your profile text are matched to what the member described.
Reviews help a little.
I'm new. How am I matched?
New mentors are matched from their culture fit call, so what you told Jessica about the problems you've solved is already working for you. Answering your first requests fast is the best thing you can do early on.
What can I do this week?
- Answer every open request, yes or no.
- Check that you have open time in the next 30 days in Settings, Calls, Availability. See how to set your hours.
- Make your specialties specific. "Paid acquisition for early-stage SaaS" matches better than "marketing". See how to fill in your mentor profile.
- Keep Reschedule for when you need a new time. Members love it when their time holds, and after a third reschedule in 30 days AI suggestions take a short rest. See what happens when you move a call.
