What their students say

Janica

Icaguerra Eclectic Tableware

★★★★★

"Suzie's Passion to Business Course was very helpful to me as she forced me to sit down and work on a business idea that has been brewing at the back of my head. She helped me turn a thought to something tangible in the form of a comprehensive business plan

Suzie and I are classmates in Business School, but though we learned the same basic stuff about business administration, Suzie still managed to teach me so many things about running a business for real, and these all come from her own rich experiences. I learned so much in two months."

Karelle

Ellie Cosmetics

★★★★★

"In the midst of running my business, I felt lost. I felt like I had no plans on where to take my business and that frustrated me. I almost gave up on my business because I really didn't know what to do, but I told myself that I'll seek help first before I totally gave up.

I searched for a long time and even got help from the wrong places, but I continued searching until I found Suzie's page. I read the past reviews of her previous students and as I was reading it, I thought to myself that I wanted that for me and my business. I wanted to find the right guidance and I found that in Suzie. She helped me improve my business in ways no one ever did.

I was able to build the identity and branding of my business and learn how to properly manage my business' finances. She gave me the plan and direction I needed and for that, I couldn't thank her enough."

"Suzie has guided me on where to start and has also lead me to people that helps me with my small business. Now I've finally launched my business and so far, I'm exceeding my sales quota every cutoff. This would not be possible without her."
