testimonials

“Attending this course gave me the courage I needed to make the next bold step in my business. I can't quantify how valuable it has been to understand the entrepreneur's financial landscape *before* there's stress to make big decisions. I'm now approaching the future of my company with strategy and optimism rather than fear. Additionally, the opportunity to learn in a group of peers made an often dry subject fun, inspirational, and full of possibilities. This course is a must.”

- Jeanette Snyder, co-founder of Profound   

“The Raise helped give me a much clearer picture of the options for funding my business, both where I am now and in the future. Thanks so, so much Rose for the time and effort you put into all of us. This is a tough road, full of lots of "unknowns" and your knowledge, in an arena that few of us have experience in, was invaluable.”

- Jamaica Trinnaman, Founder of Hello!Bulk
