Beverly Gandara's Journey to Success

I am an award-winning author and screenwriter who began writing after retirement from the corporate world as an executive administrative assistant to leaders in profit and non-profit organizations. Writing in different genres, I completed six screenplays and earned several wins and placements, nationally and internationally through the film festival circuit. At the suggestions by two producers who advised me that it would be easier to sell my scripts to Hollywood, if there were books attached, I began writing books. My first novel, Concrete Wings is a companion to my screenplay of the same

Success Story

Solar Bill Reviews

After working for decades in the communications industry, I started bumping into people who had solar. It didn't take long to recognize that everyone who has Solar loves it. One out of five didn't say they absolutely loved it, complained that they had a true-up Bill and they were not sure if or how much money was being saved. This is where the name Solar Bill Review came in. Our company does Bill reviews. We do one right after the installation and then we do them yearly. This helps build our relationships and empowers a better customer experience.

Tech 4 Accountants

I started my tech company, Rush Tech Support, in my living room. After a year of struggling, I realized there needed to be a better way to do things. I was working 14-hour days and, at the end of the year, netted $3,000. In my second year, I grew the company to $1.75M gross. As the company started growing, I knew that I needed an outside perspective, and that was when I sought help from SCORE. My company started growing a lot, and I used tactics and strategies suggested by my mentor that got immediate results. After a few years, we started niching into the accountant-specific realm. Within a

Success Story

American Veterans Transit

My journey began in October 2020 when I applied to become an LLC. I purchased my first vehicle: a 14-passenger van. However, this was during the COVID shutdown. I delayed my grand opening till April 2021. This period was difficult as well. Americans began to travel, and I had no marketplace recognition. I didn't book my first clients until June 2021. It was a 30-dollar trip. I joined the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce and started to make contacts. I went to a Women in Business meeting, sponsored a table, and told my story. Being a veteran, I wanted to give back to post-9/11 disabled
