Bio
Erica Lemp
I am so impressed by Jeannette Kraar and the work she has done building the IGNITE 360 program here in Brevard County. As a mentor for the program, I get to see first hand the difference it makes for small businesses looking to grow and thrive. Jeannette's heart and soul are fully invested in the success of others. She embodies the quote "a rising tide lifts all boats". I have worked with her on several entrepreneurial programs in the county and am so fortunate to call her a colleague and friend. Brevard County is so lucky to have her!

I hired Jeannette as business coach. I needed help meeting new marketing and sales goals given to me. Jeannette drove me hard challenging me to think creatively and holding me to the objectives I set for myself. The results of the work we did together far exceeded what I expected of myself. She definitely knows her stuff and led to my tapping into the best of myself.

Creator and Program Director, IGNITE 360, Fueling Business Growth
-
Mar 2014 - Sep 2016
As a consultant with the Women’s Business Center at Florida Institute for Technology, Kraar created IGNITE 360™ modeled after her legacy mentoring program that helps organizations achieve accelerated, sustainable growth while contributing important economic impact to the community. The IGNITE program takes businesses through an intensive six-month assessment, planning and implementation process. Designed to instill the clarity of focus needed to create and implement an effective strategic plan, mentees are guided through a process that closes the gap between current and desired business performance. The program is committed to delivering specific, measurable business outcomes and accountability for two distinct stakeholders – bottom-line results for the business owner and economic impact for the community. wbc.fit.edu
