Your Cross Talks advantage over the competition:

VISTAGE: loss of your time and money – Vistage is secular and owned by a Venture Capitalist. After a long, grueling acceptance and training process between 2–3 weeks, it takes the average person 7–10 months to build a Vistage group and then you are required to pay up to 40% of your billings and adhere to their process and paperwork.

• Speakers every quarter not every meeting• You are required to meet members every month and stick to their process of “talking through” the challenges of

Members at meetings which is not the highest and best use of time for most high performing business owners• Members are locked into a long-term contract

CONVENE: loss of your time and money – The process is exactly like Vistage except there is a focus on God. After the acceptance and training process between 2–3 weeks, it takes the average person 9–12 months to build a CONVENE group and then you are required to pay up to 40% of your billings to CONVENE.

• Speakers every quarter not every meeting• You are required to meet members every month and stick to their process of “talking through” the challenges of

Members at meetings which is not the highest and best use of time for most high performing business owners• Members are locked into a long-term contract

C12: high upfront costs – If you want to own your own group with a focus on Christian values, C12 may be a better option. • Like Vistage, you are required to meet members every month and stick to their process of “talking through” the

challenges of Members at meetings which is not the highest and best use of time for high performing business owners

• Very high upfront costs

The average Cross Talks group has 9–12 Members per group. Your group should not exceed more than 12 Members to keep the group work small and intimate and the meetings on time. After 12 Members, you can replicate the same formula to start another group.
