Yes I had a Adventure Guiding Company. But I Lost 2 Partners
Where did you loose them? I hope you sent out a search party

I realize now that I tried too hard to sell a program (which is key for daycare centers) and not hard enough to sell myself, the caregiver, which is the heart of home daycares.
Network marketing has always failed me... more than once.
