Tell us about yourself
I wanted to help people feel better. Some customers don't understand that they don't have to live in pain, that the pain can be removed. And if they do the remedial exercises that I prescribe after treatment, their pain may be gone for a very long time.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
My biggest accomplishment as a business owner is the rewarding feeling I get regularly. It feels great when clients tell you that they feel great, that you targeted their problem, and now they feel better and have less pain or no pain after the treatment.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
Doing taxes, lol.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Mirror the job you want or think that you may wish to pursue.
- Other people's negativities will not help you get to where you want to be. Be tenacious. If there's a will, there's a way.
- The beginning year or two is always hard. It takes time to build a business, but after you have found your niche and built up a clientele, it becomes so much easier and worth all the days that it was hard.
