The prospect of quitting your full-time job and starting a business can be frightening. Stephanie does a superb job of helping entrepreneurs think about building a plan for launch — pulling together documents, knowing your financials, having a clear timeline for giving notice to your employer, and so much more. One of the best pieces of advice she gave me in the beginning was, “Starting a business is just like jumping into a pool — of course you should have a fear of drowning. That’s human nature. But do you have the tools in place to make sure you don’t drown? I can make sure you have a pool floatie, and teach you how to swim.”

When I decided to start my pie business, Stephanie was a constant, guiding light. She was on top of the curve with trends and resources. She has a massive amount of knowledge about starting a business and running it. She often shared ideas on how to grow the business or meet the needs of new markets.

She has business ownership experience and that was invaluable to me. It made me confident in her, knowing that she KNOWS what it takes to be a small business owner, because she is one! She speaks from experience and from knowledge gleaned by continually educating herself. She is continually inspiring entrepreneurs.

Stephanie is great at networking and facilitating opportunities for entrepreneurs. She introduced me to the people she knew and literally created opportunities for me to grow my client base.

She genuinely cared about me and what was best for my business and my family.

I would highly recommend her for business counseling services. No matter where you are on your business venture, she can help.

A year ago I was in a job that wasn't working for my family anymore. I knew I had to get out and work for myself but I didn't know where to start. With Stephanie's guidance, I was able to leave my job and start my own business. She walked me through everything I needed to do from setting things up, figuring out how to market myself and the confidence to choose my own clients. Her support has been invaluable.

Stephanie really knows her stuff! She offered amazing knowledge and support through a huge rebranding and expansion of our massage business. She took the time to understand our concerns, and helped us develop a plan for a smooth launch of the new company.

Thank you Stephanie for all your help and continued support!

I've been fortunate enough to have taken The Business Action Plan Workingshop with Stephanie and had one-on-one coaching sessions. I was just a home crafted at the beginning stages of looking at my passion as a business. I wasn't sure if I had what it took to be an entrepreneur or how to even get started. Stephanie was able to view my business as a third party and locate my "pain points" and my underlying issues.

Our little brainstorming sessions are just what I need when I can't seem to see the end of a problem. I try to bounce ideas off of my husband but it's hard when we're not able to step back and see things from a different perspective. Stephanie will be honest with you and tell you things you may or may not WANT to hear but probably NEED to hear and that's very important. I need to be able to trust my business advisor to lay all the cards on the table and level with me instead of trying to sugar coat or make me happy.
