Testimonials for this guide:
- Michael, incarcerated in Colorado
This entrepreneurship guide was very enlightening. It's a practical tool I can use to start my own business. It dispelled some myths, plus had easy to understand concepts and ideas. Beyond teaching practical skills and providing positive material, you offer something far more valuable in our world - hope.
- Ignacio, in prison in Illinois
I've studied many books on business. This is by far easier to digest and is clear on the topics. Level's guides are very informative and helpful to building a better and brighter future. I'm very excited to see what else Level will have to offer in the future. This is so very helpful to my success after my release.
