I am not sure what to put for the objective of my session
No worries, this trips up a lot of people on their first request.
The objective dropdown is just a starting point. Pick the option that comes closest to what you want help with. It does not have to be perfect, and the mentor will not hold you to it. Its only job is to point your request roughly in the right direction.
The part that actually matters is the message. That is where you get specific. A quick example: instead of leaving it at "Marketing," write something like "I run a small B2B SaaS and I am getting signups but almost no one converts to paid. I would love a second pair of eyes on my onboarding flow." Now the mentor knows exactly what you are dealing with and whether they can help before you ever get on the call.
So: pick the closest objective, then put your energy into a clear, specific message. The more context you give, the better the session.
