  • “I would like to take a moment and express my gratitude for all the great work you have done for me and Bela Maids. I am especially grateful for you taking the time to hear my concerns and address them with such a professional approach. I am still carefully analyzing all the assessment we have received, and I am very hopeful we will accomplish great things based on it.”

    Bela Maids, President

  • “As a founder I value the multifaceted approach to assessing the LLC in a way that brought about a safe space to be vulnerable with each other as team members and have honest conversations during the SWOT Analysis. Additionally, working with Melinda was a combination of coaching and accountability partnership in pushing forward the goals and objectives of the company. We now have a tangible roadmap to move our tactics forward together through the remainder of the year in a way that feels guided and structured. This was a great investment!”

  • Melinda is an insightful and strategic business consultant. She helped us to plan and think multiple steps ahead to ensure successful completion of projects. Melinda is a perfect balance of being detail-oriented enough for great execution, but not overly so that it becomes cumbersome for a business owner. I highly recommend working with Melinda in any capacity you can!"
