At the end of the 8-weeks, you’ll leave the class with a written ACTION PLAN to start your small business.

      Hi there–

      I suggest that you contact a seasoned bookkeeper or CPA in your local area that works with small business owners. Remember, business taxes are due a March 15

      Good luck,
      Melinda

    Hi Melinda,

    Your course sounds like exactly what I need. But why have you priced it out of range for most of us struggling small business owners?

    Thanks for your time.
