Scheduling a session with a mentor
Booking a session on GrowthMentor takes three steps.
1. Pick a mentor
Use the filters on the Browse mentors page to narrow by skill, industry, tool, language, or availability. Or try AI matching — answer a few questions and we'll surface the three best mentors for your specific challenge. You can also post a Help Request and let mentors come to you.
2. Choose duration, tool, and time
Pick 15, 30, or 60 minutes (which length?). Pick your communication tool: Google Meet, Zoom, or the built-in GrowthMentor Video. Then select a slot from the mentor's calendar — minimum booking time is 48 hours out by default.
3. Tell the mentor what you need
Fill in your session request: what you're stuck on, what you've already tried, and the outcome you want from the call. Write it well — it's the difference between a fast acceptance and a decline. See how to write a good session request.
Mentors will also look at your community profile before accepting, so make sure it reflects what you actually do.
Once you confirm the request an email notification will be sent to the mentor.
You can send any additional information to the mentor using the session chat that is found in the session page.
