"Amanda and her team really know their stuff. To walk away with a plan and projection of numbers I need to follow to reach my goals - by the numbers - is invaluable. I highly recommend them!"

Now with the tools and fantastic training not only am I more organized about financial planning, I have a greater clarity & understanding of financial models. Thank you so much for the stellar presentation. I think you just helped save my business."

"The Mindful Profits workshop was a wonderful combination of breath and depth. The presenters showed a remarkable talent of quickly adapting their presentations and discussion to the variety of new business ideas presented by the attendees. Yes, “business is business,” but their discussion focused very well. The depth of information provided to each attendee was also significant. The details of setting up an enterprise, generating a business plan, and making key financial decisions early were just what I was looking for. Many thanks to Mindful Profits for providing this educational and enjoyable workshop."

Allowed me to think of various costs and future expenses that I can calculate in order to see if it’s possible. After the class, I felt more confident in my business plan and feel that it will actually work.

“I entered the seminar knowing very little about strategy, financial necessities, expenses and how to determine a positive outcome for my business venture. As a mom of a toddler and caregiver for my husband, I have little time to spare and feel so fortunate I could participate today. I feel I was given helpful tools, guidance and structure to bring life to my ideas and how have a platform to move forward. I appreciate this very special opportunity and hope we can connect again. Thanks!!”
