Wow! This week will be the first week that I will earn more from my business than my day job. Most of the issues I thought I would have were exaggerated and, in some cases, nonexistent. Thanks so much to Northstar Startups for the support and tutoring throughout this journey.

Before I became a client of Northstar Startups I didn't know what career path to follow. I was unemployed and had financial problems. They helped me through a valuable workshop, mentoring, an incubator program and weekly group and one on one meetings.
I never imagined that losing my job would lead me to entrepreneurship and fulfillment. Northstar Startups became my guiding light, providing unwavering support. Through their business courses, financial support and mentors I gained knowledge that empowered me to navigate the entrepreneurial landscape with confidence.
