Client Feedback
Client Comments:
“Being part of the pop up is exciting because it forces you to interact with clients face to face, the pop up assisted with exposure and more people now know about my business. The business did not make many sales on the date, but I am still getting leads from that event. The business also got the opportunity to be interviewed on Gugs FM through the Mall pop up intervention. In all I am very grateful for all the assistance my business has been getting thus far, my business wouldn't be where its currently at without Seda.”
