Marketing is more difficult than ever, especially in today’s crowded digital world. Referral groups and passive networking alone aren’t enough, and your value deserves to be visible to the people who can benefit from it.

HOP Growth Groups are collaborative marketing groups that leverage shared resources to achieve greater reach and impact for less.

GROWTH Groups bring together 6–12 professionals in mastermind-style communities of practice (CoPs) to market together and build on the 5 Vs of business success — Vision, Value, Virtue, Visibility, and Viability. EXAMPLES

Designed for all business types, from stylists and contractors to creatives and consultants, these mastermind and co-marketing groups are structured for idea sharing, goal setting, accountability, and expanded visibility through shared marcom campaigns and HOP networking events.

Our mission is GROWTH — Gaining Rewards, Opportunities, and Well-Being Together, Holistically. Each member contributes ideas, resources, and support to help one another gain more opportunities, improve well-being, and provide value to their group and communities.
