Julie gave a business strategies/best practices webinar to my customers. It was excellent and extremely well received. So well received I’ve asked her to give a presentation at our Trade Show and Hort Academy. My customers wanted more of what Julie had to say!!

I have been a part of the local Twin Cities Exit Planning Institute since its inception in May of 2016. There has been incredible engagement with the Business Advisor Community who now have a forum to collaborate and ultimately better prepare Business Owners for a successful exit. I would credit Julie, who has been the Chapter President since the beginning, for the phenomenal success of the chapter because of her tremendous passion and leadership skills.
