Lain Consulting LLC

There’s not enough I can say about Lapronda and her team at Lain Consulting, LLC for the outstanding work they do! I specifically purchased the Small Business Services Certification and Capability Statements, and Nikia worked with me patiently and thoroughly to help me achieve all the necessary certifications. Her patience was truly appreciated, as the process can be challenging and requires consistent effort, which I sometimes struggled to maintain. If you're looking to get certified as a Small Business, Minority Business, or more, I highly recommend Lapronda and her team at Lain Consulting, LLC. They are the experts you can trust!

For seven years, I tried to certify as a woman owned business, the process is daunting, time confusing and time consuming. I was lucky enough to attend one of Mrs Spann's CPCC online workshops about the value of certification, the different levels which I never distinguished before, and the tremendous business value in certifying. Not only that, Mrs Spann spoke to us as small business owners. She understands entrepreneurs are pulled a million directions and as an entrepreneur herself, she showed me taking the time to certify would result in growing my business. I appreciated the emphasis she put on minority businesses being at the table for government contracts and the value she communicated in all of our unique backgrounds and expertises. I was lucky to have her do the City and State certification for my small business and could never have done it without her. Not only is she an expert, she kept me motivated to fulfill my obligations so she could complete the process. She's a dynamic leader and truly showed care about getting me there as much as she did determination. She's a gem in Charlotte's small business landscape. A talent that is easy to see she's on her way to bigger things, bigger impact because she's that valuable. I feel so fortunate to have her help and hope my business grows to need her resources again in the future. Any workshop she leads is also worth being in, she's a motivator at her core and speaks truths that will give a weary entrepreneur a little more encouragement and information to keep going when the business part of our expertises are overwhelming.
