OUR PROMISE TO YOU
10X Vets is a trusted community of military veteran business owners and entrepreneurs where you can be yourself, feel energized, meet like-minded people, challenge yourself, have fun, gain wisdom and build a successful business along the way.
OUR CORE VALUES
Integrity.
The speed of trust amongst military veterans is the “X factor” in 10X Vets
Abundance Mindset.
Money is infinite and can be created with innovative ideas, through partnerships and collaborations.
Lifelong Growth.
When you do something you love, you don’t want to “retire.”
Be yourself.
We value what we have in common, but we also value each other’s unique genius because it’s where each of us has unlimited potential.
Community.
We can go further together.
Authenticity.
It’s ok to fail. No one is perfect. 10X Vets is a safe space where members openly share their experiences of failure, which facilitates greater support, understanding and knowledge-sharing.
Humility.
We are not interested in lavish displays of wealth or achievement. If we find a selfie of you on social media flashing cash in front of a luxury car, you will be removed from the 10X Vets community.
Grit.
Military veterans are resourceful and will always find a way to accomplish the mission. This is the reason why many succeed as business owners.
