“Vance MacEwen is an exceptional entrepreneur coach. I enjoyed his insights on design thinking and visualizing your business strategy as a roadmap to entrepreneur success in your business and projects. His approach is very professional, thoughtful, patient, kind, and human centered. Vance meets you where you are and helps you to go to the next level.”

“I had a great experience as a competitor in the MIC’s Pitch & Mingle competition. It was an excellent opportunity to present my work from the past several months as a member of the MIC’s spring Kauffman FastTrac cohort to the larger public. With the help of my pitch coach, I worked to refine and condense my message into a four-minute pitch with a PowerPoint presentation to match. The competition also introduced me to a group of up-and-coming companies that I could potentially partner with in the future. Lastly, as a winner, I enjoyed receiving the competition trophy. I now have something fun to display in the background for my video conferences!”

“I attended the FastTrac Program at the MIC where I met Vance who was one of the instructors. Fleshing out a business idea is not easy so I was delighted to meet Vance who was supportive and very knowledgeable about business due to being an accomplished business owner himself. I am truly grateful for the MIC and its programming. I’ve taken advantage of several of the classes that help put me and my business on the path to success.”

“As a scientist and technical person, sales is not at the top of my mind. However, I took a chance and registered for Frank’s ‘Exceeding Sales Goals’ course with the MIC and was pleasantly surprised. Frank made engaging with prospective clients about my services more systematic and less forced, with helpful insights and tools. I highly recommend Frank’s approach to engaging entrepreneurs, business owners, and non-sales professionals!”
