Meetings with potential clients



Dynamic consultant with a proven track record of successfully transitioning services to an online platform in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. From March 2020 to August 2023, I effectively pivoted my business model to provide comprehensive remote services, prioritizing safety while ensuring client engagement. Demonstrated expertise in navigating challenges and leveraging digital tools to deliver high-quality consulting and services during unprecedented times.


I have not scheduled any meetings with any potential client. For inquiries regarding my services, please contact me at afrikamabney@gmail.com.


“A potential client meeting is the first interaction between a business and a potential client. The purpose of the meeting is to establish a foundation for future collaboration by understanding the client's needs and presenting the company's offerings. A potential client might be reasonably defined as all those individuals or companies that might possibly become a client at some point. One often considers potential clients when marketing or advertising, and these individuals are owed no protection with respect to conflicts of interest.”

Creative Integrity

  Creative Integrity. Digital art created on canvas. October 3, 2024. Afrika Abney  According to my research, “shades of blue have many symbols. Light blue instills principles such as tranquility and understanding, both are crucial in the creation of art. Whereas, medium blue instills principles such as trust, creativity, calm and importance. Each of these aspects are significant in understanding the elements for creativity and the ability to trust that the final product will lead to successful results. Lastly, dark blue instills integrity which lies in the concept of doing the right thing.” I chose shades of blue to create my digital abstract painting because of the symbolism and the harmony between each shade.
