Marita is a conscientious and enthusiastic supporter of small businesses. I had the pleasure of working with Marita on projects that were of benefit to our mutual clients. Marita is very professional and personable, and has a vast depth of knowledge of the technology tools necessary for any small business professional. More importantly, she has the interpersonal skills to provide the kind of guided support new business owners need when launching a new venture. I strongly recommend using Marita to help you get started with starting or improving your own business.
