Entrepreneurs You Should Know in the Pittsburgh Region

~”Before working with Mary Ann, I was overwhelmed, stressed and in limbo. I worked with her for six weeks as she helped rewire my way of thinking. All those negative thoughts and feelings became manageable as she guided me to grow into my full potential. Throughout those six weeks, I noticed such a shift in my energy and mindset. Now, I feel much calmer and at peace. Mary Ann is patient, kind, understanding and loves what she does as shown in her work” ~Carrie

~”Working with Mary Ann Brown as my coach has been one of the most life-changing experiences of my life-One of the best decisions I have ever made. I now have a blueprint for aligning my thoughts and emotions to allow me to become more successful and happier in my career and in my life. At a time when I felt fearful and worried about my future, she helped me to release blocks that were holding me back and to open up to a new world of possibilities. In my opinion she is a miracle worker.” ~T.

~”Mary Ann’s services are unlike anything I have ever experienced before! She helped me to release great stress, anger and sadness that I allowed to plaque me for over a year. She is such a thoughtful and caring person who truly desires to guide individuals to healing.” ~R.

~Mary is Great!
“Mary has been a huge help over the past two years since we’ve been working with her. Not only did she find several things that we weren’t doing correctly with our accounting, but she moved us to QuickBooks online and did all the training. This has saved us a significant amount of time each month and also enabled us to be much more organized!” ~SAFSECUR

~Easy to work with and highly recommended!
“Mary has been very helpful with all of our accounting needs. Her advice has helped grow our construction business in so many ways. She always gets back to our questions quickly and is very easy to talk to. She has went above and beyond providing helpful information, and we will recommend her over and over again to any small business owner. Most importantly, her guidance for loan information and resources helped save our business during the coronavirus pandemic. She even was able to defer some of our monthly expenses including her own fee. Not too many accountants would do that! If you are looking for an honest, trustworthy accountant who will actually help and give advice whenever you need, Mary is the right person for you!” ~Ksalim

~Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness
“We have been using MP Kitchen CPA for several years and view her as a partner and trusted adviser. She is an asset to our small business handling taxes, payroll including PTO allotment/use and more. She keeps on top of changes that we may not be aware of and her full spectrum of services allow us to focus on other aspects of our business without worrying about this important piece.” ~Karen Seaton, AAR, LLC

~Hi Ray,
Impressive background! I had the opportunity to review your profile today and am impressed with your skills.  ~Babita Bassi

~I visited Refucilo Winery last weekend, and let me tell you, I am 110% coming back! As soon as I walked in the door, I was greeted with warm smiles and friendliness. The owners took the time to explain to me and show me pictures of the history of their wine and what each wine is made of and the employees there showed me tips on how to taste wine. On top of all that, the wine was absolutely amazing (especially the Torrontes, I had to take a bottle home, and I will definitely be coming back for more)! Not only do they have wine, they serve delicious tapas. I would recommend the cheese empanadas, they are homemade and so incredible!!! Can’t wait to go back!!

~Cozy, beautiful gem not too far from Heinz Field. Love the authentic Argentina wine and delicious tapas. Try the flight of wine (red or white) with the corresponding food suggestions… absolutely a great experience!!

~The wine here is amazing! We tried both the red and the white flights and thought they were all excellent. So happy to have a place like this in the North Side!

~”I’m a business coach and I want my clients to have the best website that is available to them within their budget. I want them to have a website that will drive traffic by being at the top of the Google food chain and help my clients grow their business. Recently, several of my clients who thought they already had excellent websites, had a free analysis of their sites conducted by DDS. I knew for a fact that their old websites were not getting them enough business. After meeting with Dave and Denise they were convinced they needed new websites. Bottom line; DDS created custom websites for them at a price that they could afford and have already received their return on investment! DDS has my highest recommendation.” ~Bob Gambone

~”Our company has been in business for ten years. During that 10 year period, we have had 3 other websites (all created by different designers). DDS was able to grasp the function and design concept we were looking for in an eye-pleasing presentation, which none of our previous designers/sites could do. As a small business, we have to wear many hats. Having DDS manage the SEO & provide a monthly website traffic analysis will be invaluable to us, so that our time can be better spent managing our day to day business. We don’t have the time to try to learn/master all of the tasks it takes to have a functional & business-building website. We are excited that DDS will fulfill that role for us. We are a part of a network within our industry which includes 280 other stores. We will happily be passing on the DDS company to them.” ~Sandy Burkett, Vital Signs Pittsburgh

~”It has been an absolute pleasure working with the DDS team. They are extremely attentive to the client’s requests and vision for a website, and their turn-around time for correspondence and changes is the fastest I’ve ever seen! I highly recommend DDS Web Design to anyone looking for “one-stop shopping” in their graphic design needs.” ~Emily Kasky, Lithodora Translation & Interpretation, LLC

~“I felt much more prepared for the commitment and responsibility of owning chickens after we rented for a season. In fact, we waited a few years to buy until we were ready. I also learned what would work for me in a coop, run, and breed of chicken. This is a vital service for anyone thinking of keeping backyard chickens. I think everyone should rent for a season before buying to see if chicken keeping is for them! It’s also a super fun summer project to do with your kids even if you aren’t considering ever buying!” ~Sarah, Mount Lebanon, PA

~“The interaction between the hens is amazing. They are very curious and can be gentle. Excellent experience all around. Superb support system. It was amazing to have repair people come into the yard and ask about the chickens. I told so many people about Rent The Chicken. I love that you guys exist!” ~Nicole, Niagara Falls, Ontario

~As a small business owner working from home, computer performance is extremely important to me. Having Kevin available for repairs at a very competitive price and the option for “at home” service, makes it very desirable to do business with him. He is extremely knowledgeable and can explain what needs to be done. I highly recommend Kevin. Great service at a great price! ~ Tammy Gary, Ad Specialties of Pittsburgh

~ I met Kevin at a networking group and I couldn’t be happier that I went to that meeting. It’s very reassuring to know that I have him in my corner. I have 5 computers and I have no doubt that Kevin is the reason they stay running and backed up. ~ Tom Pollard, Positively Pittsburgh

~ I am creative…I’m not organized! That’s where Gail Bayer and Innovative Bookkeeping comes in. I don’t know how I would run my business without her thoroughness, professionalism and flexibility. ~ Jeff Tobe, Primary Colorer, Coloring Outside The Lines

~ For my small business, Innovative Bookkeeping helped to educate me as well as to set up my accounting program. Gail is professional, reliable and easing to work with. I would highly recommend her. ~ Kathy Lipsitz, President, HealthCheck

~ As a small business owner, the last thing I need is complications at tax time. Gail’s services allow me to keep track of my income and expenses, and seamlessly communicate with my accountant. ~ Edward Kress, Esquire

~I have suffered with incapacitating migraines for 20 years until I found Shaklee and Linda’s expertise. Vital-mag has eliminated them. ~ Maureen Romutis
