Christie really knows entrepreneurship. She's insightful, practical and a terrific communicator. My session with her focused precisely on my challenges and from it, I emerged with specific guidance for new directions to explore. Sometimes, you just need fresh eyes on a challenge. She's an incredibly valuable resource for that - I'll be back for more!

After my call, I feel like I have a solid foundation and am even more excited to start my new business!!! Christie laid out the steps in an easy to understand fashion to help me move towards applying for an LLC/ DBA in my state. She also recommended good business practices to move towards such as business bank accounts, book keeping strategies and basic marketing and branding concepts. Very knowledgeable and easy to speak with, Christie knows her stuff!! Thank you so much for all you do!!!

Really cool that you intuitively know to spent time investigating the probabilities before jumping into things. If there is a Startup Weekend near you do that - in 54 hours you will get to wrap a small team around the idea, learn + do customer validation an get expert help from local mentors. If that isn't a possibility, you could create a landing page that "sells" the idea as if it exists, then put a couple hundred behind targeted fb ads to see if you have something that people are interested in. At minimum, read Eric Reis' Lean Startup book to learn how to ensure you create a product that really fits a market. :) Get in touch if you want to chat more!
