I have known Phil for several years, so I was well aware of his business acumen and experience. I had just started a new business venture of my own and discovered that Phil was offering a Sounding Board/advising service. As I was fairly new to running my own business, I immediately got in contact with him to see if he could help me. Having known Phil for some time, I knew that he was the type of person that I could speak openly and freely to, and that he would give me honest advice. At our meeting, Phil was able to help develop my ideas and refine them in a way that gave me more purpose and confidence in my approach. He allowed me to ask him some really useful questions about his personal experiences, and he was able to ask me some important questions about my business. I left the meeting with a clearer understanding of how to be successful and with a greater drive to push myself and succeed. I would highly recommend Phil to anyone looking at launching their own business, or who need some advice to improve their current situation.
