Making the Algorithms work for you!

Rethinking success: Getting In or getting out?
What should the entrepreneurs be focusing on?
The business narrative and endless buzz around startups, accelerators, and seed funding to the highstakes jargon of IPOs, franchises, and exit strategies, the world of entrepreneurship is filled with noise,
and can be daunting for any spa and wellness operator, just looking to make an impact. The noise,
when coupled with investor expectations, market disruptions, and the pressure to scale fast, and it all
can become overwhelming.
