"New company helps Houston side hustlers and entrepreneurs turn their skills into structured, sustainable businesses — in partnership with Garden of Goodness."

HOUSTON, TX, UNITED STATES, September 3, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Across the country, millions of people are earning money from skills, services and side hustles without necessarily thinking of themselves as business owners.
“I just do hair on the side.”
“I sell plates on the weekends.”
“I only have a few clients.”
“People pay me to decorate parties.”

Mentor Solutions believes those statements often represent something much bigger: the beginning of a business.
Based in Houston, Texas, and serving entrepreneurs beyond the Houston market through virtual services, Mentor Solutions is a business development company focused on helping aspiring and existing entrepreneurs move from idea to ownership with the structure, resources and guidance needed to build with confidence.

Its mission is captured in one simple statement:

We Don’t Teach Business. We Build Business Owners.

Building the Foundation Behind the Entrepreneur

Starting a business requires more than creating a social media page, choosing a name or filing an LLC.
Entrepreneurs also need to understand how business structure, personal credit, business credit, financial readiness, documentation and long-term strategy work together.

Mentor Solutions provides personalized support in areas including:
Personal and Business Credit Development
LLC Formation
DBA / Assumed Name Assistance
EIN Application Assistance
Business Structure and Setup Guidance
Business Banking Preparation
Mentorship
Nonprofit Formation
501(c)(3) Application Preparation Assistance
Organizational and Startup Documentation

The company works with entrepreneurs at different stages from individuals earning their first dollars from a side hustle to established business owners seeking stronger structure and strategies for growth.

Your Side Hustle May Already Be a Business

Mentor Solutions is especially focused on reaching skilled professionals and independent earners who may not traditionally identify themselves as entrepreneurs.

That can include barbers and hairstylists, beauty professionals, food vendors and caterers, contractors and skilled tradespeople, healthcare professionals, fitness instructors, creatives, event professionals, transportation providers, consultants, online sellers, home-service providers and countless others.

If someone is consistently getting paid for a skill, service, product or trade, Mentor Solutions encourages them to start thinking beyond the transaction and ask:
Am I simply making extra money—or am I building something that could become a business?
That shift in mindset is at the heart of the company's work.
More Than Filing Paperwork
While online platforms have made filing business documents easier, Mentor Solutions believes entrepreneurs often need something technology alone cannot provide: personalized guidance and ongoing support.
The company helps clients understand not only what steps they can take, but how those individual pieces fit into the larger goal of becoming a stronger business owner.

The Mentor Solutions approach follows a simple progression:
IDEA → STRUCTURE → SETUP → STRATEGY → GROWTH

Whether the client is in Houston or another part of the country, Mentor Solutions aims to make business ownership feel more accessible and less overwhelming.

A Broader Conversation About Entrepreneurship

Mentor Solutions is seeking to expand the conversation around entrepreneurship beyond startups and traditional corporate business owners.

There is another generation of entrepreneurs being created in salons, kitchens, gyms, homes, trucks, studios, healthcare settings, trade schools and communities across America.

Many already have the talent.
Many already have customers.
Many are already generating income.
What they may be missing is the structure and knowledge to begin thinking and operating like business owners.
That is where Mentor Solutions wants to help bridge the gap.
