We have an established practice, and we've been coaching with them for almost 3 years to help take us to the next level (and the next level after that!). In that time have seen our practice increase quite substantially each year. They focus on proven tactics that, if implemented correctly, WILL work! Any time we are stuck, or encounter something we've never encountered before, we can get on a call with Dr. Lloyd and it always seems like he's able to come up with the perfect solution that leaves us saying "why didn't we think of that???" I cannot recommend FSM highly enough. It is truly world-class coaching!

The Onward weekend conference was a lovely blend of informative speakers and yoga, along with lovely conversation and motivated entrepreneurs to mingle with. I found a lot in common with those in attendance and even met up with a group of them post-conference to discuss the similarities between our collective vision. Upon arriving, the space was decorated beautifully and our seating was all comfy cozy. I felt tuned in and attentive during the whole presentation and was never bored. We received a lot of awesome handouts to take home and keep as a guide, which was awesome! They even raffled off a website build! Worth the Journey truly knows how to make the process of creating and amplifying a business more pleasurable by integrating play and a lightheartedness to the stressful, overwhelming entrepreneurial process. Thank you so much for being there as a support system and guide for those of us on this journey!

It feels like a privilege that I finally have the opportunity to praise and speak to the success of…read moremy experience with Plum Coaching--I called Lora expecting a fairly transactional conversation about costs and expectations, but I decided to move forward because she genuinely listened to the specifics of my situation. In summary: I was seeking new opportunities in my field of UX design, had built an impressive portfolio but was consistently failing to communicate my work in a way that resonated with hiring managers. I had gone through 12 unsuccessful interviews before I decided it was time to seek some professional and objective advice. What I appreciated most about the mock interview with Lora was that she never tried to steer me away from being myself...she gave me practical tools to make sure that I was able to speak on my own behalf and recognize the intention behind every interview question. Long story short, I found myself with an offer letter about three weeks after our session in a role that is perfect for my professional development. If you're in a tough or confusing spot, don't make decisions based on the cost of services--just find someone who you trust that understands your goals and needs and it will pay off a thousand times in the future. Plum served that purpose for me and I can't reccomend their services highly enough.

TL;DR Big costs a lot for trouble and headaches for years to come…read more You can see the story line from my previous reviews. The latest update being I tried to make some changes to my small business taxes and the IRS responded by telling me that my business was not registered properly (it was missing the correct form to register as an S corp (Eric's recommendation in the first place). Additionally, the IRS forms require a wet signature which Eric never requested from me, so even the forms that were filled out (1120S) were not valid. "...the IRS confirmed that neither 2020 or 2021 are reflected as 1120s, this means ... the IRS has no filings for the LLC." It was already expensive when I paid Eric to file it initially, now I have to pay a new professional to fix it. Lots of money spent and major anxiety and panic that I would have loved to avoid. I could have saved myself thousands if I had done additional research and gotten a personal recommendation. I would never recommend Eric to anyone.

I had a very niche, very personal, very small business, and James and his team made me feel like I…read morewas his only client. I was shocked in one of our many meetings that he revealed he had about 20 active businesses he was involved with. Every time I emailed, called, or texted they responded right away, and with thoughtful, expert and insightful responses. James and his team are not only expert business brokers, they are financial experts (maybe even go so far as excel nerds!), therapists, hand holders, teachers, advocates, professionals, and overall supporters. Through all the ups and downs, and there will be ups and downs, they have your back. Not many of us have ever bought or sold a business and there would be no way to know what you don't know. To protect your own interests, please hire James! You will not regret it. He did a great job of explaining all the ins and outs in a clear, concise and level headed way. That final high five after closing made it all worth the effort. When I build and sell my next business, James will be who I use.

I first hired Up Time Technology to build me a dual boot (XP of blessed memory and Windows 7…read moreProfessional) machine in 2010. They sat down with me and suggested a configuration in the middle for my QuickBooks consulting business. They pointed out that I didn't need to use a i7 chip for my set up, review, and training business and an i3 would be under-powered. Now seven years later, it is still running strong. I then went back when I had hard disk problems. They replaced the drive with a solid state drive, suggested that since I could do a fresh install that this would be a good time to switch to using a 64 bit operating system (I had chosen 32 bit because of problems with QuickBooks and 64 bit systems when I first got it built), and doubled my memory to 8 GB. Price was reasonable, on budget, and delivered on time. I recommend them to my clients who need real computers and not the crap sold at big box stores or Costco.

From the owner: Our goal is to facilitate the realization of the dream that led our client into starting their own…read morebusiness in the first place, rather than spending all of their time worrying about the daily operations of the business. We believe that business ownership should allow the entrepreneur more freedom to pursue personal goals. We believe that owning and operating a business should not simply be a replacement for a traditional 8-5 job, or worse, replacing an 8-hour work day with a 12-hour one. We believe that owning and operating a business should offer the entrepreneur to spend more time doing the things he or she enjoys, making life happier with less stress. Our solutions create the type of life the client desires. We spend the first few days interviewing our client about the vision and dreams that led to starting the business, and performing a thorough analysis of current business operations. Once we have gathered sufficient data, we develop a plan that will ensure that our client will be able to fulfill the vision, and enable the business to support the dreams, whatever those might be. Every client, and every business is unique. Therefore every solution is custom designed for the specific client. However, we aim to make our solutions affordable to every client.

Mikki's Parenting Blueprint coaching program was so amazingly helpful and has given me a whole new…read moreunderstanding into how I was parented and how I parent today with my own kids. Through her process of meditations, worksheets, mind-body work, and her one-on-one weekly sessions, she gently guided me to recognize my own limiting beliefs of myself and my parenting skills. I was able to uncover and discover deeper limiting beliefs that I didn't even know I held onto since childhood. I am now able to step back and understand my own emotional makeup and help my children navigate through their own challenges. MIkki has a unique intuitive talent as she assists in bringing an understanding of beliefs through her mind-body work, which is part of her process. She is a great listener, is patient and has a non-judgmental approach. I highly recommend her course to anyone who has struggled through their own style of parenting and wants a deeper understanding of their emotional makeup and improve relationships with their children.
