"Oh my! Scott Kabbes is a wealth of knowledge! He is a very engaging speaker and an intelligent man. His story about starting his business on card table was shocking, and his employees taking a risk like they did was brave. This really shows how an idea can change to a million dollar business. This inspires me while I work on my personal business and also my class business."
