Read MoreThis was the first Latasha James course I had ever taken and I was so impressed that I purchased more of her content. She is so informative and really knows what she is talking about. My husband has heard me take multiple different social media manager courses and Latasha James was the only one where he spoke up and said, "she sounds like she's giving some really good information". My husband works in a restaurant, not social media and even he can tell her content stands out above the rest. Thank you for everything, Latasha. You are helping others achieve their dreams!
