College Pro Testimonials
I was a bartender — and now I run a scaled business with freedom of time. College Pro is a fast track into getting to that place because they do such a good job of coaching and teaching all the way through. If running a business is what you see yourself doing, just take the leap.
Peter Doerksen - Calgary, AB
Once you trust your people and find those who do a great job, it changes the entire game. You're always in control of your own time — you're building something you own, something you can sell. Listen to your coach's instructions, because they know best, and they've done it before.
Alexander Doerksen - Calgary, AB
They were very good at taking someone with no experience to the next level. I won Rookie of the Year in my first year — only one person in the company gets it. Starting up can always be a little tricky in the first year, but it does get easier.
