Adrienne Bowling
A1 MOBILE NOTARY
One of our graduates, Adrienne Bowling, recently reached out to let us know that she has more than doubled her income after graduating from The Academy and starting her business, A1 Mobile Notary. We were over the moon to hear about her growth.
When we asked her what the increased income meant to her, she shared this:
“My daughter is five years old, and I am her sole provider. In the midst of such a challenging year – when it seems like everything has gotten harder – doubling my income has meant stability for me and my daughter. It has felt like God’s care for us, and it has removed so much of the pressure of the day-to-day.”

It’s going so well (even during the pandemic) that Marcus paid it forward and covered the cost of five food entrepreneurs to go through The Academy.
