"With the valuable guidance and support of Coach Chettha, we have seen significant growth in our business. Under his mentorship, our revenue has more than doubled from around $35K to $76K, and increased our profits. His expertise and experience in B2B which he had kindly shared, has allowed us to understand the industry better, prep our materials, and clinch our first mini B2B deal. Coach Chettha's mentorship has been instrumental in helping us refine our strategies, optimize our operations, and ultimately achieve more than one important milestone. It has also been extremely heartening to have Coach Chettha's guidance and support, as it definitely makes the Entrepreneurship journey much easier."
