I'm genuinely thrilled to see Meander come to life! The idea of streamlining the mentorship process and making it more accessible is nothing short of revolutionary. There are so many professionals out there who can benefit from specific, expert guidance, and mentors who are eager to share their wisdom. But finding the right match can be daunting, and Meander seems to be the perfect solution to bridge that gap๐Ÿ‘

It's impressive to see such a thoughtful approach to mentorship, tackling everything from discovery to scheduling, and even mentor improvement. The caliber of mentors from renowned organizations speaks volumes about the trust and credibility Meander has built. Looking forward to seeing the impact Meander will make on the growth trajectories of professionals and startups alike. Kudos to the team for their mission-driven approach and best wishes for this journey! ๐Ÿš€

I've used the platform for more than 6 months and it's been a great way to connect with mentees and coaching clients. I appreciate that the platform collects reviews and has a low commission. The support channel is also very responsive. They've quickly fixed issues and implemented ideas I've shared to improve the product for my use cases.

An area for improvement would be the ability to connect with mentees already on the platform. They have a feature where you can do some outreach but I've had limited success with it. I mostly bring clients to the platform from my own channels. It also still needs to support discounts or coupon codes for clients.

Pros
+ responsive support (1)+ low commission (1)
Cons

I'm a mentor on Meander - https://meander.so/m/KlaudGrave - and the team behind Meander were the ones who introduced me to the whole mentoring thing. Becoming a mentor helped me re-evaluate my professional self, better understand my strengths, review my experience, and help my mentees with their requests. The Meander team builds a strong community of mentors and mentees, supporting both sides with insights, articles, webinars, and other assets.

The team is great, and the platform evolves rapidly. Thanks and keep up the good work!

@anna_buldakova1 @dashamrt really great to hear your personal experiences, and as somebody who worked their way through the ranks and around a few different roles before leadership, my own experience is very similar.

So many people have trouble finding a mentor willing and able to provide the time, particularly when they're early, so I hope this skyrockets. I've made sure to sign up as a mentor and I hope I can be helpful.

Easy sign up process by the way. I appreciated having the examples in the fields so โค๏ธ to your UX/Design skills for those!

Hey PH gang!

I'm a big believer in people and sharing expertise among them. For me, it was always a simple and reliable way to make the world around better. And to help others, in the end of the day :)

That's why I've been teaching and mentoring for more than 10 years. Going from a school math teacher (ah these good old days when my main concern was to help kids fulfil their dreams) to product mentor, helping young enthusiasts build their career in the industry. Guiding, sharing experience and making their professional path more exciting and less painful.

And that's one of the reasons I'm so excited about Meander! I've been following the product from the early stages, and boy oh boy we need a good mentoring platform nowadays. A great list of mentors, insightful content and solutions connected right to the users' problem. Unlike some 'we imagined a problem and designed a solution for it' startups, that one is built with people and their pain points in mind. And that is something we all need in the world of razzle dazzle 'hollow' products, don't you think?

Big kudos to Anna and her team for that! Really wishing all the best and looking forward to Meander shining bright :)

Hey guys, thanks for the product. I've used it as a mentor for several months, and it looks great so far. One thing I was struggling with is how to be sure that my hourly rate meets my potential mentees' budget.

Big congrats Meander. Once again, I couldn't be more thrilled to support the platform as a mentor and see the official launch. Your team's clear commitment to help mentees through each question, hesitation, curiosity, and challenge in their career has been incredible to see. Mentees pick my brain across my Google, Product Management, founder, fundraising, etc, etc experience all in ONE session or use our chats as a weekly refocusing for their goals, and the platform's powerful matchmaking makes that match so strong and efficient. Very happy to be a part of the mentor family! Congrats again!

Congrats on the launch and thanks a lot for an amazing experience.

Meander helped me not only to understand my career path through mentorship sessions, but to get rid of impostor syndrome by becoming a Mentor myself. I already had two sessions and no doubt I really feel that I know something ๐Ÿ˜… that can help people to grow as Creative Specialists.

Thanks Meander Team
