Jackie Serviss
Founder, Serv Recruitment Agency
I was sick of playing small in my business.
I needed the mentorship, the network, the tools, and the confidence that was needed to take my business to the next level.
I had been an entrepreneur already for a couple years and I had tried to do it on my own and I quickly realized in order to level up, think bigger, play bigger, and scale my business, I needed to get in the rooms with the right people.
I got that 10-fold. Not only did my income triple during Covid as a result of the community, it landed me on my million dollar business idea.

Bridgette Boucha
CFO for Entrepreneurs
The Fast Foundations Mastermind was one of the best decisions I made for my business.
Everything about it felt like “next level”, the training, the people, the energy.
Attending the sessions was like stepping into next level Shana. There were so many great parts of the program, but I think the best was the relationships I created with the other members.
Years later I am still connected to a lot of the people. I learned so much about myself and business during Fast Foundations. It definitely created a quantum leap in my life and business.

I knew that getting in the Fast Foundations Mastermind would be the gasoline on the fire that I needed.
The mastermind members, and the guest speakers not only held me accountable, but they stretched me in ways I never could have imagined ... which of course resulted in me scaling my business beyond 7-figures.
The network, collaborations, big thinking, support, and love in that room is something I’ve taken with me over the years.

Meet Your Co-Hosts
R.T. Custer & Jim Carter III
Back in 2019, we met in this same Fast Foundations Mastermind Program. At the time, it was run by our friend and mentor, Chris Harder. The program helped us both scale our businesses past 7 figures and gain the confidence we needed to grow personally and professionally.
In February 2022, we did a big exciting thing and BOUGHT Fast Foundations Mastermind. We had one dream… to make this the single best community for entrepreneurs to grow their businesses and make their impact.
Between us, we’ve created three multiple 7-figure+ businesses in the fin-tech, luxury, marketing, and charitable spaces and are committed to teaching you what works… and, let’s be honest, what doesn’t.
We have both invested hundreds of thousands into expanding our network and our own coaching, and we want to share this immersive, six-month program that drastically helped us achieve our goals with you!

The overall experience was amazing but it was how intentional every single session, speaker, break out session, conversation, and gift was.
Everything felt so thought-out and done with the intention to support us.

Fast Foundations Mastermind was truly the backbone of my success in business.
It was through this mastermind I met not only some of my best friends and soul family but people who I have since built and scaled my multiple six-figure businesses with.
This mastermind is a no-brainer.

FAQ's
A: Yes … kinda. We recommend that your business is making roughly between $25k–$499k in revenue; however, we are open to businesses just getting started, and oftentimes they see the biggest results! These parameters are put in place as a guideline to ensure everyone is in similar spots in their businesses.
A: We carefully built this to be six months because we wanted this to be long enough to create real growth, but also compact enough so that you can commit to it and sprint ahead in 2023! People who are in the early stages of entrepreneurship need a fast and immersive program, but not one that takes up too much of their time either.
A: We have two simple, flat rate options for you to join.
- $7,495 – Paid In Full
- $1,995 today + 3 payments of $1,995 starting 4/1/23
Either option is available to all applicants and will be provided with your invite to the program after you’ve completed your application interview.
A: Yes, but those options are pay In Full ONLY. In order to pay via PayPal, send the full payment amount ($7,500) to [email protected] To Pay via Venmo, send the full payment amount to @carterandcuster. IMPORTANT: After sending your payment, email [email protected] letting us know. That way we can collect necessary information and send you your welcome email!
The magic of a Mastermind is truly connecting with other driven, talented entrepreneurs. This is also a way for you to find your like-minded tribe that you cannot find in your area. You simply can’t accomplish this on a deep or meaningful level “online only.” Anyone who sells you an online-only mastermind is simply selling you a hyped up e-course. This is also a great time for us to get to know you and your business better and for you to learn in person from some of our celebrity entrepreneur friends.
- Event #1: April 18 to 20, 2023: Scottsdale, Arizona
- Event #2: August 2 & 3, 2023: Denver, Colorado
A: We’ll host Zoom training calls along with a welcome call to provide space for learning, collaboration, and check-ins. The Zoom dates are yet to be announced as we are lining up amazing speakers.

All video calls and trainings WILL BE RECORDED, and you will have access to them in the Fast Foundation Online Community while you’re an active mastermind member.
A: Access to the Online Community starts no more than 48 hours after you reserve your seat. Access to the mastermind community never ends because once you’re part of the Fast Foundations Mastermind you are part of the community for life!
*These dates are subject to change. The next round will be March 1st, 2023 through the end of August, 2023.
All you have to do is get yourself to the two in-person meetings and find a place to stay (we always negotiate a killer deal for you at the hotel/venue where we hold the event, but some people room together or split a nearby AirBnB.) You will also have the chance to plan two dinners on your own so that you can go bond with your new entrepreneurial friends. All other snacks, lunches, and one epic dinner experience are our treat to you per event!
A: Always check with your own tax adviser, but in most cases, YES! The investment in business coaching and related travel expenses are likely tax-deductible for you. Yay!
