How can I continue after my time with the program?During your time with your consultant, you will be taught how to use digital tools so you will be well-equipped once your time is done with us.

-
What can I bring or have ready to be prepared for my time with my consultant?Understand your needs: have a specific idea of the areas you need help with and what you want to get out of this consultation. Have your access: login information and permissions (that can later be changed) for consultants to be able to sign in, edit and improve sites and accounts. Working branding files: copies of your logo/ any previous branding items to incorporate into new plans. Most useful if these are in a working document format (IE, .psd or .indd) Business and product photos: images of your business and/or product are helpful in case you are not able to take new ones for your consultant to use
