*****
It's the 3-year anniversary of Crowdfund Your Dream! And I'm working on a top secret project:

I want to help 100 people go from zero to money hero within the next year, and knock out their funding goals. 🎉

I want to provide communications, marketing, and fundraising training for less than 10% of what it normally costs to hire me. 💰

I want to see tons of folks launching new projects and businesses, making deals, with time for a vacation on the beach with sun, sand, and a margarita. 🍸
