Testimonials: Kind Words and Client Wins

  • "Working with Anamarie and Bideako has been one of the best decisions I’ve made as a business owner. As a wife and busy mom, it’s easy to feel pulled in a million directions, but Anamarie has guided me to build my business with my family and goals in mind first—and everything else second. She’s reminded me time and again that my business can’t thrive if my family life isn’t healthy and thriving, and that perspective has been a game-changer."

    - Franci W.

  • "Reaching out to Bideako was the best business decision I could have made! Anamarie helped me remember 'why' I purchased my business as well as my vision of what I wanted my business to look like. [She] broke down tasks, goals and decisions into strategic plans that helped me feel confident in my abilities and to make my business everything I dreamed it could be."

    - Karen F.

  • "[Anamarie] has mentored, helped and guided – basically offered all the support for my current business and another business coming soon. She is extremely knowledgeable and what really makes Anamarie who she is, is her genuine love of helping people and truly wanting them to succeed."

    - Stephanie H.

  • "I reached out to Anamarie …for business advice and as always, she was such a great help. Besides responding quickly and very informatively, she genuinely cares about work ethic and making small businesses succeed. I would recommend Bideako to any business interested in succeeding"

    - Sandra B.

  • "I felt overwhelmed and unsure every time I looked at a business to buy. The numbers intimidated me, and I was afraid of making a huge mistake. [Business Buy-ology] helped me understand what truly mattered financially and operationally and gave me the confidence to evaluate opportunities thoughtfully instead of emotionally.”

    Daniel M.

Every Great Business Has a Story—What’s Yours?
Anamarie Lopategui

Every business, no matter its size or industry, has a story. It’s the backbone of its identity, the heart of its marketing message, and often the defining factor in its success. A business without a story is like a book without a plot—functional, perhaps, but lacking the depth and connection that draw people in and inspire loyalty.

As a business owner, feeling overwhelmed, defeated or disconnected from the purpose that once drove you is more common than you think.

But don’t worry, there’s a way to rekindle that spark and realign your business with what truly matters.
