Business Plan
word of mouth. I have helped aid veterans primarily. I have done this voluntarilly because I wanted to gain experience although I was paid on different occasions. I also would like to help other domestic violence survivors by aiding in their funding opps to help them get off their feet. I would plan to grow my business by grants and federal opportunities. I would network and aim at helping 5 candidates per month on monthly basis (60 per year) and charge a base service feel on $250 to review and consult. If able to help, the client would fulfil services and it would be $1000-$2000 paid out by finalization of project. If time goes over, they would have to pay a monthly fee. I estimate that by word of mouth , I will be able to help others. I also only have helped people in San Antonio and one other person as trial in Fort Worth, Texas. I would like to broaden location. I have grit and drive. I am persistent and a mother who will stop at nothing to ensure my daughters know that there is no excuse other then to be successful. Chance favors the prepared mind. I want to help those in our community, our underdogs, who want to do better whether it means to get their degree, military disability, escape domestic violence, but don't have the money to do so. I have an idea much like a technical school but in life. For instance, maybe someone needs to get their GED Or school, well I know a resource to do that. Someone needs to apply for disability but is only at a 30%, yet deserves more. I can help. I am the queen of customizing and problem solving. I have an innate ability to help any situation because I have made my own mistakes when escaping domestic violence. I have a plan to have these people create their life successfully, using funding for what is available to each person based on their situation. Rewriting their story with help from the community. There is ways around suing and using attorneys. For every situation, I hear get an attorney. No! Let's work together and help each other be citizens who can help others, positive vibes!

Self Identified Competition
VSO I care, and I have been where they are. I am bringing myself up using resources I found. I have a lot of experience in the background of litigation and legal fields. I don't like that this is the only option for most in these positions. There is an easier way to getting what you and your family need.
