As a fledgling solopreneur I had a lot to learn when I started working with Mark Fordham. Over the course of 2017 the advice and support that I have had has kept my business on track. This mentoring has given me real confidence to make strategic decisions to move my business forward. The tax advice has been invaluable!"
