Home Business/Expert Profile

Expertise

My company, Assist University, trains people in every aspect of starting, and more importantly, sustaining, their businesses, while having high quality lives. Additionally, I am a professional business coach. I coach clients to get from where they are, to where they want to be, professionally. All of my clients are small business owners.

Experience in the area

I've worked for myself for more than 18 years, and have owned my own successful company for more than 13--there's something to be said for that, when the majority of businesses don't see a fifth anniversary. In addition, I've trained and supported more than 1000 people to start and sustain their own businesses.

Education/Credentials

I never graduated from University. I'm pretty happy about that--especially in a world that tells us that we need a degree to be successful. :)

What do you like about this subject?

I am passionate about seeing people live their dreams. Often, a home business is a piece of that. And what jazzes me about doing what I do is that I get to support them in taking the *right* action steps to get to where they want to be.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

The more I learn, the more I know how much I have to learn!

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

Most home-based business owners don't have solid foundations under their businesses, and that's why they struggle, and often fail.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

You can *do* anything. You just can't do everything.
