“The Halo team (Connie, Anna, Stephen) was excellent in helping me build a solid business plan and secure a funding for a business I am starting up. The whole Halo team is very professional and the process was seamless. Securing funds have always been one of my main concerns with starting a business but Halo makes it really easy.
I can't say enough good things about this team and I will work with them again if/when the time comes to expand my business. 100% highly recommended.”
