“JYOB gave me more confidence! It was reassuring to know I am on the right track and that my [business] canvas made sense. It also helped to get JDF's opinion on the area I should focus on—speaking/teaching—which is what I wanted to focus on anyway.”

Sharon Mizota, DEI Metadata Consultant

“I appreciated the questions for clarification on my proposed digital product. It gave me the opportunity to really think it through and decide whether I'd added too much extra stuff and could trim down my idea to something even better. I appreciate having affirmation that my ideas make sense and a second set of eyes to give me a perspective beyond my own. I know now that moving forward with my idea, it's improved from my first draft.”

Jasmine Gonzalez, Founder of Jasmine Gonzalez Consulting

“Cynthia is a great teacher. I particularly enjoyed the parts about niching...it gave me the confidence to hone in on the clientele I want to attract by focusing on what is unique about me and my offerings.”

Noha Arafa, Founder of Our Ancestors’ Children, Trauma Informed Yoga

“Since I’m in the early stages of dreaming and conceptualizing my small online business, it was really helpful to give me structure and ask the right questions about long-term sustainability.”

Neha Savant, Founder of Neha Savant Consulting

“Traditional business plans or outlines intimidated the crap out of me. Jumpstart Your Online Business was perfect because it was short, concise, and straight to the point. It was a more logical and easier approach for my learning style, and it didn’t feel like an overwhelming process, especially for someone in just the beginning phases of a business idea.”
