What is a parallel entrepreneur?
A parallel entrepreneur runs several ventures at once. Not one after another like a serial entrepreneur, but side by side, splitting time, capital, and focus across multiple companies.
It's a different way of building, with a different set of problems. Our guide breaks down what it means, how it compares to serial entrepreneurship, and the traits that make it work.

Mark Cleveland - Passionate Entrepreneur, Patient Builder
Being a parallel entrepreneur means juggling chaos, creativity, and constraints.
I’ve lived this life and know how isolating it can feel. That’s why I created the Parallel Entrepreneur Network, a community that thrives on collaboration, not competition.
Here, we pay it forward, share real experiences, and help each other stay on the path to success. If you’re ready to join a group that truly gets you, we’d love to have you.

Our Community Values
Give First,
Gain Always
We show up to add value without keeping score. Help someone now and it tends to come back later, often from a direction you didn’t expect.
Talk Real,
Walk Real
Advice is cheap, so we skip the theory and the “shoulds.” We trade real lessons from running the businesses: what worked, what blew up, and what it cost. That’s how everyone moves faster.
Build a
Trust Vault
Trust matters here. What’s shared in the network stays in the network. We protect each other’s privacy and back each other up, so you can be straight with the room.
Evolve
Relentlessly
Standing still isn’t the goal when you’re out to Unleash Potential Everywhere. We try things, adjust, and pass along what’s working so everyone levels up.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do the monthly mastermind sessions work?
Our masterminds are tailored to the stage of your business. Early-stage founders focus on brainstorming product-market fit, MVP testing, and fundraising strategies. Later-stage founders tackle scaling challenges, leadership development, and strategic planning. Later-stage founders may attend any mastermind. Early-stage founders may be invited to attend later-stage masterminds based on member consensus. Each session is moderated and structured with check-ins, specific discussion topics (oftentimes led by guest speakers) and concrete next steps.
How should I prepare for a session?
Before each session, take a moment to reflect on your current challenges and wins. Come ready to share insights, raise questions, and discuss any specific issues you want input on. A little prep ensures you get the most value.
How do you decide if I’m early or later stage?
We assess factors like your revenue, business complexity, and experience as a founder. Don’t worry, it’s not rigid. We’ll place you in the founder’s group that best fits your needs.
Why is there an application process?
We prioritize quality over quantity. The application helps ensure everyone in the community is aligned, creating a productive and supportive environment for growth.
What happens after I apply?
If we decide you’re a fit, we’ll connect you with the Network’s founder for a quick chat to discuss next steps and start onboarding.
What if I don’t get in?
If spaces are full or it’s not the right time, we’ll guide you on how to qualify in the future. This ensures every member is positioned for success.
Who will be in my mastermind group?
Groups are curated to match your business stage and goals. If you want to see who’s currently involved, reach out for an updated list.
What’s your cancellation and refund policy?
You can request a full refund for any payments made in the last six months, no questions asked. We value our relationship over the cost of membership.
Can I get access to recordings without joining?
No, recordings aren’t available separately. The real value comes from active participation, building relationships, and engaging in live sessions.
What platform do you use for meetings?
We use Google Meet for most sessions, providing a seamless and reliable meeting experience.
Can I share access with a partner?
Membership is individual. Partners or spouses can apply separately and go through the same vetting process.
