Samuel had great information and insight to share on my being at the start/launch phase of a box. He was friendly and professional and gave clear, direct advice. I really appreciated that he took the time for the call. Plus, he also talked to me about how it can be done around my lifestyle, which was my main concern. I'll be thinking on some things he explained and making decisions for my business. Thanks again Samuel. Highly recommend.
