      Owner / Internet Marketing Consultant

      Running my own web services company was a great experience, in a short period of time I had a chance to meet and work with a lot of committed, talented business people. After one year, it was a tough decision to wrap Vision Accomplished up and go another route.My main takeaway: doing something on you own is something I'd highly recommend to anyone interested in growing personally and professionally - fast!
