Hi, I am your future Business Coach! I help women launch a Moving Box Rental home based business in their own community through my Moving Box Business Academy Program.
I live in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada but my students are mostly in the United States. I have four kiddos who are currently 12, 15, 17, and 18. They definitely keep me on my toes!
I have been an entrepreneur since I was 23 years old. When I look back, I cannot believe that I started so young considering the fact that my kids are nearly in their 20s!
Entrepreneurship is definitely in my blood though.
I first began my entrepreneurial journey by owning a Pizza Franchise and slowly acquired very unique businesses along the way.
It was my 14 years of experience in the Rental Industry that prepared me for the launch of Carrie’s Courses Corporation in 2021.
I took all of the business knowledge that I gained since 2003, and now teach other women how to start a profitable Moving Box Rental Business all across the United States.
I want all women to have the same lifestyle that I have been able to have while staying home with the kids all of these years.
I cannot wait to work with you too and get you launched within 14 weeks!
Carrie is always told how relatable and down to earth she is. She is very accommodating and kind, and always takes the time to listen to her client’s wishes, struggles, and story.
She loves to use her humour and make people smile, so her group coaching calls are always very light and laidback. With that said, her zoom meetings with the group are very structured so that no time is wasted.
Carrie goes above and beyond with support, and her students often comment on how well supported they feel, even after graduation. She keeps in touch with most of her grads and encourages them to keep never give up.
Carrie always ensures that everyone gets a turn to discuss their issues or concerns during the Group Coaching Calls, so that nobody feels rushed or unimportant.
She wants everyone to feel heard and understood. If Carrie notices someone struggling, she will take the conversation offline after the meeting until the issues are resolved.
Carrie is very hands on, and aims to please. You will love working with her as she will make you feel important and supported through your own entrepreneurial journey!
Just before covid started, Carrie had this giant urge to start a new business. Little did she know that her other business would soon be shut down due to covid restrictions, so thank goodness that little birdy told her to try something new!
Owning a business in the Rental Industry was not new to her – she loved the concept. This time around, Carrie wanted to find something that offered longer term rentals with higher sales per customer. And she figured it out!
Carrie called it Pack ‘n Stack Moving Bin Rentals. She delivers sanitized moving boxes to people’s homes or offices. They use these to pack up their old home or office.
They stack perfectly in the moving truck and are easy to pack since you do not need to find cardboard boxes or use tape! Then after her customers have moved, Carrie picks up the totes and prepares them for the next customer. Super simple!
Pack ‘n Stack really blew up into a successful business fast, even during Covid. In the summer of 2021, she decided to expand and start teaching people how to get into the Moving Box Rental Business. And so Carrie’s Courses Corporation was born!
This was Carrie’s first experience getting involved in the Rental Industry. She started Jack of all Spades back in 2007 and she rents games to people who are having parties.
Some examples are Blackjack Tables, Poker Tables, Roulette Tables, Plinko (just like you see on the Price is Right), Bean Bag Toss, Jail & Bail, Crown & Anchor, etc.
She built this business from the ground up, having no previous experience at all. Now Jack of all Spades is the largest Casino and Party Rental company in the region.
Each year her sales have grown and she has even employed Dealers to run the games.
However, with covid restrictions, this business was shut down for 18 months! It has since resumed as events are no longer banned (for now).
Luckily Carrie started Pack ’n Stack Moving Bin Rentals before covid so this has carried her through some tough times.
With the moving boxees being sanitized, covid did not affect her sales. Carrie still runs Jack of all Spades, but it is very very part time now. Which is just fine actually, as she can now focus on Carrie’s Courses Corporation – as this is truly where her heart is!
My name is Rui De Almeida, and after working in marketing and I.T. for 25 years for clients such as Microsoft, Ford, Kraft, Canadian Tire, World Vision, and TD Bank, I decided to make a change.
After meeting Carrie in 2022 and seeing her many successes as an exceptional entrepreneur and business woman, I decided to partner with Carrie to both contribute to Carrie’s Courses Corporation, my expertise in sales and marketing, but to also learn from her as she coaches me through the next stage of my career.
I still love communicating with people and working collaboratively in a team.
Carrie’s Courses Corporation has been a wonderful and exciting step personally.
I am ready for long-time partnership!
I would also like you to know that I am a father to a beautiful and definitely smarter than me daughter who inspires me every day. I am also a father to the sweetest Bichon Poo ever!
I love riding my Harley-Davidson when not working as well as travelling and exploring new destinations!
Movies and in general, pop culture are totally my thing. Avid Toronto Maple Leafs fan and F1 follower!
I also want to say I am a christian and love God above all things.
I look forward to meeting you all and getting to know you better with the hope that not only we become friends but also you become the most successful “Lady Boss” you can be!
Coach Carrie will make it happen!
