Eric Jude

I coach entrepreneurs and startups to avoid any roadblocks and build businesses that succeed.

You can either book one of the plans or if you are new to mentorship I suggest booking one of my sessions to get started. I am a Round 2 judge for the ABH 2023 (Jack Ma Foundation). It means I am in closer contact with 50 of the continents top finalists and have a deeper understanding of what investors are looking for in startups across the globe. I will be directly involved in interviewing the founders/co-founders. A lot of valuable learnings that I can pass on to you.

Here is what my mentees have to say;

"Eric has challenged my thinking and encouraged and help me to grow personally and professionally! I really enjoy talking to him and the tasks he is giving are useful and lead to a better understanding of myself and my business career. If you are stuck or overwhelmed in your current situation and need someone to give you clarity and advice, talk to Eric!" Alexander Sachs – CTO – SCIPIO Global GmbH

"Eric has been an essential part of my journey as a solopreneur. He's been so proactive and helpful knowing exactly where do I need to focus on and helping me plan and deploy the best strategy towards the success of my business. Thanks Eric for all your support, knowledge and help, I couldn't have known all the steps and insights from myself and your expertise has definitely made my path easier and promising. Looking forward to see more amazing outcomes working with you." - Miguel Lorenzo, Founder of www.filma.app

"What you get with Eric is proactive mentorship. One that often makes the first move to check up on you, giving you feedback when you least expected it. This is a testament to the quality of care that Eric gives to his mentees. I would recommend!" -- Zhen Ming Ng, Founder of www.workground.co

"Eric is one of the best Mentors I have worked with. He brings in knowledge, patience and follows give first philosophy - tries to bond with you first, understand your strengths and weaknesses before giving his opinion. His remarks are subtle and mostly pushes you to look deeper into yourself. He goes to extra length to help you succeed, be it call/resources, helping you prepare pitches or finding right contacts to help you grow business. Sessions with him helped me look into my mistakes and strengths I have been missing. Will highly recommend to business owners looking for funding or individuals thinking of starting a new business." -- Shivam Verma, Founder Ledgerwise.com

Starting even before Facebook and Google existed I was involved with IBM's first E-Commerce store, NHL, Mercedes Benz, Merill Lynch and Bacardi Canada to build communities + mktg strategies to increase traction by <300% in a very short span.

I am known in the industry for always getting the job done 100%, on time, working alongside large teams collaboratively in NY, Toronto and running my own startup successfully - https://bit.ly/3ZjxCuu

Presently I coach startups on 6-month programs through SEEDSTARS and other platforms. I also help business students at RMIT University - Australia and Vietnam, Magic (https://central.mymagic.my/mentor/34/viewMentor/9874/Eric+Jude) and Futurelab.

When I’m not working, I dabble in photography and the arts. Practicing Vipassana meditation continues to help me tackle difficult situations with a calm mind. I also volunteer my time as a tandem cyclist for the blind, which has been incredibly rewarding.

If you are an Entrepreneur or SME owner facing a crisis, challenge or just need to navigate your way in the right direction let’s talk.

My expectations for a successful mentoring/coaching relationship:
An open mind and be ready to hustle and market yourself to success
