Cory Miller & Benjamin Bradley

Starting a business is tough and lonely

For freelancers, it’s ...Lack of technical skills

Lack of marketing and sales skills

Knowing how to charge what you’re worth

Lack of organization

Lack of time

... and CONFIDENCE in it all

You aren’t alone.

What if you had ...A guide for the journey

A partner for the ups and downs

A coach helping you win

A professional with skills and experience

And just someone to walk alongside you

Who we are ...
