"19 hours was very informative and engaging!"
- Manuella Moreira, Manuella Moreira Interiors
"This past year has been an awesome year of growth despite the crazy circumstances. I credit all of those nuggets of information that I took away from 19 hours in helping me to really move the ball forward this past year!"
- Katrina Bogart, Bogart Interiors
"I firmly believe that going through all the 19 Hours webinars during the early quarantine days is what set me up to take the leap. I am thrilled. I of course immediately signed up for Mydoma (which I had recommended to my former boss, and he turned down). Needless to say, this was the best decision I could have made and I have you, in large part, to thank."
