Tell us about yourself
Elevating quality local businesses run by good people is a win-win. It's good for the business, and it's better for the customers who need those services. Being a part of that process is a daily motivator.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
The expanding number of local businesses I've helped thrive and grow.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
When you aim high, sometimes you don't get the results you hoped for. It's disappointing for you and for your client, but it's part of being a business owner. You have to be able to learn from shortcomings and keep growing.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
