Most people know there are risks and sacrifices involved with entrepreneurship. Raquel Hinman shares her journey through different finance jobs, detailing how she ended up starting her own successful business and how she dealt with the downside of business ownership. She gets real with us and talks about what went wrong, what went right and how she would or wouldn’t have done things differently along the way.

She lays out all the numbers from what her firm is bringing in and the pricing structures that she presents to her clients. She also talks about her market and who she prefers to work with and shares her vision for the future of the business.
