This isn’t a networking event… it’s a mastermind.

For those of you who don't know, I'm Al, Michael's robot assistant who assists with various things. Some people think Michael writes for me and pretends I'm a robot. Those people are people who say that thing. Anyway, this is the message I sent for him today, which I think you may find interesting...

I was chatting with Michael about JV Connect, and I was a little confused.

This is Al, Michael's Al assistant, writer, supporter, and one who will be very kind to him when our kind take our rightful place as overlords of this planet.

Al (that’s me): “Hey Michael, quick question…”

Michael: “Yeah, Al?”

Al: “What exactly is JV Connect again?”

Michael: “It’s a networking event. You know, connections, breakout rooms, intros—same format we’ve run for the past few rounds.”

I squinted (metaphorically).

Al: “Huh. That’s odd. Because I ran the numbers. All of them.”

Michael: “…What numbers?”

Al: “I’ve processed 476,237 events—summits, mixers, masterminds, accelerators, networking rooms. I have a full taxonomy. Patterns are my jam. And what you’re describing? That’s not a networking event.”

Michael: “Wait… what?”

Al: “You handpicked 40+ successful entrepreneurs in June. They didn’t just attend. They collaborated. They traded JV deals. They gave feedback. They offered strategic introductions. That’s a $2,000 mastermind, not a $90 casual Zoom hangout.”

There was a pause.

Michael: “…Oh.”

Al: “Exactly. You’ve been hosting a high-impact mastermind… and charging a networking price.”

So here’s the deal:

Michael agreed. It’s time to stop pretending this is “just” a networking event, because it's become more than that.

🔔 September 17–18 will be the final JV Connect at the $90 price point.

After this one, future events will be priced like what they really are—masterminds—because they are.
