...[Kristy] worked tirelessly providing more info and rebuttals to buyers on why their offer was too low. In less than a year we completed the sale of the day care within the asking price range. [She is] the first person I will call the next time...

Kristy was AWESOME!!! I learned so much that I didn’t know. I feel more prepared for the future.Awareness is a must. I will do things differently in the future taking what I have learned [from Kristy].

Kristy was a ray of hope that came to us at just the right time. With Kristy's guidance, we were able to make some needed changes so that our business would be much more marketable, and she was able to complete the sale at a higher than expected price.

My company has been saved by the most incredible lady in the business. I really couldn’t have done this a tenth as well without Kristy, and I owe her big. I could go on and on about how much she has changed my company and me as an owner.
