I’m The Real Jason Duncan, here to help entrepreneurs build thriving businesses without sacrificing freedom. 🚀

In previous blogs we have discussed the power of masterminds—how Andrew Carnegie used a trusted circle of advisors to make critical business decisions, and how legendary figures like Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, and Harvey Firestone formed “The Vagabonds” to challenge each other’s thinking on their road trips.

But there’s a problem... most masterminds today don’t work the way Carnegie and Ford used them.
The term “mastermind” has become overused and diluted.
Some are really just coaching programs.
Others are glorified networking groups.
Many are just expensive conferences with a fancy label.

Here’s what we’re breaking down today:

• The problem with most masterminds

• What makes The Exiter Club different

• Who this mastermind is for—and who it’s not

• How you can experience the power of this group for yourself

How Most Masterminds Are Broken

The word “mastermind” gets thrown around a lot these days, but let’s be real—most so-called “masterminds” aren’t actually masterminds.

I’ve seen it firsthand.

I’m a member of a high-level coaching group made up of successful business owners, entrepreneurs, and coaches from across the country. It’s led by incredible entrepreneurs, and the value is undeniable.
But let’s be clear—it’s a coaching group.

Coaching is valuable, but it’s not a mastermind.

Here’s where most masterminds miss the mark:

• Coaching groups: You’re paying to hear one person teach, but there’s no structured collaboration between members. That’s not a mastermind; it’s a class.

• Networking groups: These are social clubs for entrepreneurs. You make great connections, but there’s no accountability or strategy.

• Conferences with a mastermind label: You get great speakers and maybe a hot seat session, but there’s no structured, ongoing mastermind experience.

A true mastermind is more than coaching, networking, or a conference. It’s a structured, strategic group designed to sharpen you, challenge you, and help you make better business decisions.

That’s exactly why The Exiter Club was created.

What Makes The Exiter Club Different

Most masterminds are built around one person—the founder, the guru, the “Pied Piper” entrepreneur. The entire group revolves around their knowledge and experience.

That’s not how The Exiter Club works.

Instead of a one-man show, The Exiter Club is built around a team of six world-class experts—each a certified coach specializing in a critical area every entrepreneur needs to master:

• Me (The Real Jason Duncan) – Entrepreneurship & Business Scaling

• CPA & Tax Strategist – Keeping more of what you earn

• Investment Banker – Preparing your business for a high-value exit

• Business Attorney – Protecting your business & structuring deals

• Wealth Manager – Creating financial freedom & legacy wealth

• Mindset Coach – Overcoming limiting beliefs & stepping into real leadership

This isn’t just one person’s perspective. It’s high-level collaboration between successful entrepreneurs and elite coaches who have built, scaled, and sold businesses.

Here’s What Sets The Exiter Club Apart:

• Proven Framework for Business Freedom: While most masterminds give you motivation, we give you a step-by-step method to create a business that runs without you—so you can exit without exiting.

• High-Level Strategy & Tactical Execution: We don’t just talk theory. We work through real challenges, develop actual solutions, and hold each other accountable to implementation.

• A Room Full of Peers at Your Level: This isn’t a “starter mastermind.” Every member is a seasoned entrepreneur doing at least $3M in revenue or $300K in net profit.

• A Network of Power Players: It’s not just about knowledge—it’s about who you know. Inside The Exiter Club, you’ll connect with investors, dealmakers, and successful entrepreneurs.

• A Focus on Business AND Life: We’re not just helping you scale your business. We’re helping you reclaim your time, energy, and freedom. If your business owns you, you don’t have freedom.

Who It’s For (and Who It’s Not)

The Exiter Club isn’t for everyone.

This is not a mastermind for hobbyists, solopreneurs looking for quick hacks, or people who want to stay stuck in the weeds of their business forever.

It’s for serious entrepreneurs who:

• Run businesses doing at least $3M in revenue or $300K in net profit (exceptions made for those committed to scaling)

• Want true freedom—more time, more wealth, more control

• Are coachable and willing to implement real strategies that lead to lasting change

• Want a business that operates without them—one that doesn’t own them

• See the value of surrounding themselves with top-tier thinkers

Who It’s NOT For:

• Entrepreneurs who aren’t willing to invest in the right team, systems, and strategies

• Anyone looking for basic business coaching—this is an elite mastermind for experienced entrepreneurs

What You Get Inside The Exiter Club

Here’s what you’ll experience as a member of The Exiter Club:

• Hot Seat Sessions: Twice a month, members bring their biggest challenges to the group, getting real-time feedback from fellow entrepreneurs and expert coaches.

• Monthly Deep-Dive Trainings: Focused on critical areas like leadership, financial strategy, exit preparation, and more.

• Exclusive In-Person Events: Private workshops and retreats to expand your network and have tactical breakthroughs.

• One-on-One Access to Experts: Get direct access to expert coaches for CPA, legal, financial, and business insights.

• A Private, Curated Network: Surround yourself with the right people who challenge you, push you, and open doors.

• The XOS™ Method: A proprietary, structured framework that helps you transition from being trapped in your business to being free from day-to-day operations.

This is not just another mastermind. It’s a working mastermind designed to help you implement real change and see real results.

How The Exiter Club Transforms Businesses

The Exiter Club is about more than growing revenue. It’s about breaking free from the daily grind. Here’s how entrepreneurs inside The Exiter Club have transformed their businesses:

• From Overworked to In Control – One member went from burnout to freedom by restructuring his leadership team and removing himself from daily operations. Now, his business runs without him.

• From Revenue Plateaus to Scalable Growth – Many entrepreneurs hit a point where their business stops growing due to lack of systems or leadership. Inside The Exiter Club, they learn how to scale beyond their current ceiling.

• From Owner-Operator to Owner-Investor – One entrepreneur transitioned from being hands-on to spending time on high-level strategy, while his business thrived without him.

Success isn’t about knowing everything—it’s about having the right people around you to guide, challenge, and sharpen you.
