CHARLOTTE, N.C. - TelAve -- The Brands + Bands Strategy Group, a financial planning and education company dedicated to helping individuals and small business owners shift their money algorithm, is proud to announce that its founder, Nadia Vanderhall, has been selected to participate in the Intuit IDEAS Program, a year-long business accelerator designed to help high-impact entrepreneurs scale their businesses with resources typically reserved for large corporations.

The program provides participating entrepreneurs with access to Intuit's powerful ecosystem of tools — including QuickBooks, TurboTax, Mailchimp, and Credit Karma — as well as executive-level coaching, mentorship, and strategic guidance. Participants also receive a non-dilutive grant to reinvest in their businesses, providing financial support without giving up equity.
