Hi Kristin,

Since I had my zoom meeting with you, I have done lots of changes! 

1) I took your advice and reached out to a few past clients to see why they may have left. This was very hard to do but was also pretty inspiring.

2) I redid all of my rates and am trying to streamline my clientele process.

3) I have also changed how my team is run and am working on have fewer team members and getting them fully booked! 

I loved working with you. Thanks! 😊

~Malina
