What participants say
Tanya
“I think LaunchMe has been by far way better than anything I had been a part of. It gave me practical insight into google analytics, what I needed in my website, bookkeeping, legal and the like.”
Eddie
“LaunchMe has brought our business into the 21st century – and you can’t put a price on that. Without LaunchMe we would not be where we are today, so thank you so much.”
Faridah
“LaunchMe really helped me when I was confused…. I had many business ideas, but each also had its own barriers. I was able to talk this out with my coach and she provided me with tasks that truly helped me streamline it all into one business.”
