In addition, a marketing and branding campaign was developed and implemented to ready the markets.This was truly an entrepreneurial undertaking. I stepped down from a leadership role to become the first agency owner in the expansion state of Illinois. I chose this venture as part of a 5 year plan to build a self supporting business that would provide a legacy for my children.
