Thank you doesn’t begin to cover it. To all who have served, and are still out there defending our country – we wouldn’t be free without your sacrifice. We are the land of the free because of the brave. Because of you! To every vet who has served or is serving, words aren’t enough. To…

It takes guts. To cross a bridge, dream big, get on a plane, talk to a stranger, or step out on your own into the world of business. Guts and grit. While a business plan is not always required, planning ahead will always support you and your goals. Each year I set aside time in…

Our first few weeks back in the office have been pretty great as we dust off the inbox, get caught up with clients and team members, re-organize our work life, and tackle the ever-evolving schedule. And this is how we do it… I’ve been so grateful for everyone who is not only excited to meet…

When I started my business in April of 2009 I decided to test the waters. The economy had crashed and I knew small businesses needed help. After registering Jamie Teasdale, LLC with Oregon, I took the first 10 months to determine what small businesses needed, what they were willing to pay for, and what I…

This sabbatical I’m in wouldn’t be possible without a trusted support system around me. It isn’t hard to remember how lucky I am and this heart is grateful daily for my team at the helm of Propel’s ship during this precious time. Propel would not be what it is without the team members I have.…
