&lt;br /&gt;
I haven't already done so, so I wanted to formally welcome you to the Bank of America Small Business Online Community.&lt;br /&gt;
There have been a lot of great questions asked and answered, and I had just one more if you dont mind.&lt;br /&gt;
Do you have catalogs that you could send out to consultants so that we could show them to clients?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

      <description>Good info on this program!  24 one-hour conference calls (2 each week for 12 weeks) for $525 is a fantastic deal if the mentor is knowledgable.  Who conducts this program and provides the mentoring?  What are his/her qualifications and credentials?  (I think I may have asked that already in another post -- sorry if this is redundant. Since that's the key to whether or not the program is worth the cost, however, it's important to know who is leading/conducting it.  Thanks!)</description>
