How to Use These Kits
I’m a do-it-yourselfer through and through, and have found the key to success is in finding the right resources and tools to help you along the way. These business kits are intended to fill in the gaps when you’re not quite ready to hire a lawyer or a coach, or to read a whole book on small business. If and when you are ready for personalized help, check out my coaching offerings. And if there are topics you’d like me to develop as a business kit, please let me know!
Good luck and stay in touch!
