Mentor Program

Better connections start with the right introduction.

What is the Mentor Program?

A simple way to connect with experienced members of the Playground who are happy to help. Find a mentor you relate to, get their contact information and reach out whenever you have a question. There’s no set schedule or timeline — it’s about relationships, never sales.

Two ways to find your mentor

  • Online: browse Meet the Mentors, find someone whose business or story you relate to, and reach out using the contact information on their profile.
  • At a PPG event: meet a mentor in person on a Friday. They can introduce you around and help you get the most out of the room.

Networking should be more than business cards

Traditional networking can feel transactional. Our approach is built on relationships first: get to know people, help where you can, and the business follows.

What your mentor can help you do

  • Meet the right professionals for your business
  • Start conversations with confidence
  • Make the most of each Friday
  • Find collaboration and referral opportunities
  • Follow up in ways that build trust
  • Become an active, visible part of the community
  • Get answers to questions as they come up

Who is it for?

New business owners, professionals new to the area, career changers — and experienced owners who simply want to network more intentionally.

Help whenever you need it

Reach out before a big meeting, after a Friday or any time a question comes up. Your mentor is there when you need them, for as long as it’s helpful.
