Keep in mind the more selections you make, the more likely you will find someone. For example, if you need advice in marketing and finance, you will get the all mentors who have indicated experience in either areas. Your search will give you the email address of the individuals and a quick glimpse at what experience they have. You can review their mini-resume and decide who you would like to contact. Remember to be professional when contacting a mentor.
Mentors have careers, families, projects, deadlines, and responsibilities.
Monitor the time and the amount of contact you have with them and show appreciation whenever you can. The only reward mentors get is seeing the positive changes and improvements that occur based on their involvement.
