You should be doing more

You should do it for the love of the mission
close
You don’t have options
Turns out, none of those things are true.
How about this instead?

I've been consulting since 2015.
Early on my network was mostly faculty and other administrators . . . who couldn't really help me build my business.
You know who could?
You know who could?
Other entrepreneurs.
The more I surround myself with other entrepreneurs, the better and faster I grow.
I want the same for you.
This community makes it easier - and more fun - for entrepreneurs in higher ed to build the businesses of their dreams.
