Mind & Social

What Mind & Social does

Mind & Social is a private coaching and community platform founded in 2023 and based in Atlanta, Georgia, serving entrepreneurs, executives, and professionals seeking business growth and leadership development. The company operates a five-person team with no proprietary technology, relying on a Squarespace website and standard third-party tools for podcast hosting and email marketing. Its core offering is personalized 1:1 business coaching delivered by named practitioners Tracy and Patrick through the proprietary VISION Program, a six-step transformational journey, alongside free community membership with a paid VIP tier, regional networking events (both co-ed and women's-only chapters), and a content ecosystem anchored by The Layover podcast, eBooks, webinars, and a blog.

The business model combines a freemium community membership with high-touch recurring coaching revenue from monthly retainer packages and one-time strategy sessions. Pricing for coaching and VIP membership is not publicly disclosed and requires direct inquiry, which is consistent with a sales-led motion targeting SMBs and individual buyers rather than enterprise procurement. Go-to-market is community-led, leveraging The Layover podcast, blog content, email newsletters, and in-person events in the Atlanta area as top-of-funnel acquisition channels that convert free members into paid coaching engagements.

The customer base is fragmented across micro-businesses, solopreneurs, startups, and small sponsors, with no disclosed enterprise contracts, no institutional funding, and no parent company. Geographic reach is currently regional, concentrated in the Southeast United States. Strategic activity since founding has centered on product surface expansion (coaching, membership, events, podcast, resources, shop) rather than capital raises or acquisitions, and the operating status is active with no regulatory, M&A, or structural events on record.

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• Strategic Coach: Strategic Coach sells structured, recurring coaching programs (workshops plus 1:1) to entrepreneurs and is built around a proprietary multi-step methodology. It is directly comparable to Mind & Social's VISION Program and 1:1 retainer model, and it is a benchmark for productizing entrepreneur coaching.
• Marie Forleo's B-School: Marie Forleo sells online business coaching programs plus a digital community targeting entrepreneurs, anchored by a personal-brand coach and content engine. It is directly comparable to Mind & Social because both rely on a charismatic founder-coach, premium digital products, and a community/membership layer.

Broad incumbents

• SCORE: SCORE is a U.S.-wide nonprofit network providing free mentoring, workshops, and resources to small-business owners. It competes for the same early-stage entrepreneur Mind & Social targets with one of the coaching packages, but at zero price point and with a volunteer mentor model.
• Vistage: Vistage is the largest peer-advisory and executive coaching organization for CEOs and business leaders, offering monthly group coaching and 1:1 advisory. It is comparable to Mind & Social because both sell ongoing coaching engagements to entrepreneurs and executives, though Vistage operates at vastly greater scale and is membership-based rather than community-led.
• Entrepreneurs' Organization (EO): EO is a global peer network for founders offering forums, events, and learning programs for entrepreneurs. It is comparable to Mind & Social's membership and event-based community model, but EO operates globally with much higher dues and a more selective member profile.
• Tony Robbins Business Coaching / Robbins Research International: Tony Robbins operates premium business-coaching programs and live events targeting entrepreneurs and executives. It is comparable to Mind & Social in offering high-ticket 1:1 and group coaching anchored by a personal-brand coach, but at national scale and significantly higher price points.

Others

• Founders Forum: Founders Forum is a global community and events network connecting technology entrepreneurs and investors. It is thematically comparable to Mind & Social's networking-event model for entrepreneurs but operates at a much higher-end, investor-oriented tier.

Emerging players

• Female Founder Co. Female Founder Co. provides a membership community, events, and resources specifically for women entrepreneurs. It is comparable to Mind & Social's women's-only networking chapter and SMB/executive coaching positioning, though its digital footprint is larger.
• HeyMama: HeyMama is a membership and networking community for working mothers and women entrepreneurs, offering events, content, and connections. It overlaps with Mind & Social's women's-only chapters and entrepreneur-community focus, though HeyMama is digital-first and broader than business coaching.

Regional players

• Startup Junkie Podcast / Startup Junkie: Startup Junkie is an Atlanta-region entrepreneur support platform built around a podcast, events, and founder coaching. It is highly comparable to Mind & Social because both use a podcast-driven content engine, Atlanta-based live events, and 1:1 founder support for early-stage entrepreneurs.
