My consultants are masters of their crafts and came from applicable backgrounds that were perfect for my brand. One came from the baby industry and the other digital marketing. I couldn’t have chosen better if I tried! I was left with actionable items and a plan outlining multi-phase growth.”

Nadiyah Spencer, TinkyPoo

Both consultants brought specific skills and interest in food. They were engaged and demonstrated both their knowledge and expertise in small business management. The most positive aspect of the project was learning more on how to read reports, their purpose and the information they offer.”

Karla Rosales-Barrios, Pass The Sauced

The biggest takeaway from working with TAP is that they gave me the confidence and knowing that they'll always have my back and that they'll listen to me, always be there for me. That goes a long way when you're starting a business.”
