How Having a Business Coach Has Moved the Needle in My Business with Patricia Daniels P2P: 025
Patricia is founder and president of The Ryan Odelle Mance Memorial Scholarship Foundation, Inc., and organization started in memory of her beloved younger son, Ryan, who died in 1999. In addition to her work with the Mance Foundation, she also serves as the office manager in her husband’s business, A Touch of Class Interior Design LLC in Accokeek, MD.

I’m fortunate to conisder Patricia a dear friend as well as a business colleague. Having lived next door to Patricia for years it was an honor to have her on the show.
Patricia has created something unique in the non-profit sector in that they provide a level of support to the recipients of the scholarship that is unprecendented. The students receive the scholarship for all four years of college (provided they maintain a certain grade point average) and Patricia stays in touch with all the students and treats them like family.
