Testimonials

Antivia Cherry

“Today in Raquel’s Mastermind class, I learned so much! I'm so grateful for the opportunity to learn the strengths and weaknesses of my business, that I can improve on, and the steps that I need to do. She made it clear that you need to go through each step to get your business where it needs to be. There are some things that I need to take care of and think more about being ready to really achieve my business and my personal life goals.”

Gina Cooper

I'm with ERA Wilder Realty in Irmo SC and I have known Raquel since she was in the 9th grade. I've watched her grow up. I've worked with her on several deals where she has purchased properties. She started off with several residential properties in a couple of different states; she also purchased a daycare and then sold it for a tremendous profit. Raquel has created a culture for herself! She surrounded herself with good people in the business. She is also educated herself to know how to use her money and how to make sure that she's getting a good deal. She understands how to grow a business and how to make a profit.

Trevor McDonald

I came with questions. I came here wondering what's the next step. What was the next phase? Raquel knocked it out of the park! She made me think outside of the box, as a business owner. Anytime you need to know what the next move is, what is the next step, you must get here and find out. Pay for it; Invest in yourself! I am so glad that I came.

Dustin

I'm the owner and principal broker of horizon business. I just wanted to share an experience I had with Raquel Thomas, probably one of my favorite clients to date on both sides of the table. She came to me as a serial entrepreneur buyer, looking to invest in the childcare space. She was interested in purchasing my child care center that we had for sale. The child care center was a struggling business losing money every month. She purchased the business Sept. 2014. She spent the next 2 1/2 years building up that business and tripling the investment. She then, subsequently, put the business for sale and May of 2017, selling it where she nearly actually over doubled her money. She has a great business acumen, so anybody seeking a good mentorship, coach, or trainer she would certainly be somebody that I would recommend!”

Alicia Zeigler

“Let me just say what a powerful and wonderful experience this was for me as a small business owner and entrepreneur. Sometimes you get so caught up in the day to day of working your business that you don't take time to step back and really evaluate everything correctly. Are you doing everything to the best of your ability? Are you revisiting your goals and your dreams and why you originally got into this in the first place? And thinking ahead, like, where do you want to go from here? Raquel Mastermind Class makes you ask yourself all those questions. Not only did she make you ask yourself those questions, but she made you answer those questions. She explained how everyone has room to grow and learn, and that I need to be a student again and I need to be taught again and that's what I experienced today in Raquel’s Mastermind Class.

Nichole Harriet

I was tired of my 9 to 5 job! This class gave me the process on how to start my own businesses, all in a small class setting. I have been wanting to start my own business, but I had no idea how! Raquel taught me about creating a business plan, setting goals, making sure your business is in purpose. If she is coming to a city near you, please, please, please invest in this class to invest in you!

Tisa

Raquel’s Mastermind Class was phenomenal! She taught us, as business owners, to take it to another level. This is a class you do not want to miss. There is so much information, tons of small things you miss as business owners. She makes you very conscious and allows you to address and fix those problems.

Nikki Eason

Alright, listen! I need everybody who is interested in owning a business, running a business, anything with business, to make sure you attend this Mastermind Class. I have learned so much information my head is about to explode with valuable things. I didn’t even know some of the things she taught us today, and I am a business owner myself! I was so happy just to be in the room! You do not want to miss it!

Melody Williams

I just finished Raquel’s Mastermind Class today! One of the biggest things that I've learned being in this class is that I have a lot of work to do. I know exactly where I am with my business and where I want to go. I was asked questions that I've never even thought about. What is my purpose? What is my gift? What’s the difference between a gift a talent? Allowing myself to be here allowed me the knowledge of knowing exactly what it takes to be successful. She made me realize that people are willing to give helping hands, and everyone around me can be a leader, and how to work with my peers in business can be beneficial.

Nikki Glasgow

I just want to say the how thankful I am to be a part of Raquel’s Mastermind Class. This was truly amazing to me as I'm now learning to walk into my purpose of my business in life. It was an eye-opening experience she's going to leave you in awe. Any questions you have, they're going to be answered and I can say that if you’ve never been to one, find her on her tour, follow her on Facebook and Instagram and see what you can get into getting sleepy get the information

Stephanie McCleod

Today I had an awesome time at Raquel’s Mastermind Class! We learned the keys of what we need to know. Like why we need a business plan and what our purpose is for our business. I am so ready to get to work!

Chandra Cleveland-Jennings

I can't say enough about Raquel’s Mastermind Class! She didn’t keep anything a secret, she shared all that was on her mind; what her struggle was like. It's amazing because so many times we look at people and we think they came here, already in order to do what they need to do, but what she went through has a lot to do with where she is. She even published a book about her life and the direction on which way she wanted to go! I would tell you from this, I have got more sessions to go with her! I am so ready! I am so ready to get my business started I am so ready for it to be successful! Thank you, Raquel!
