“Angela helped me to slow down. Most entrepreneurs have the same go go attitude I have and we find it difficult to slow down.. we’re not all about the details... but we need to be and she keeps you where you need to be to build the growth and expansion you are looking for! Her fee is worth very penny and more!”
