Do you have a list of items you will take care of and items you will not?
We do not have an official list yet; however, the best way is to ask us! There will be times we will have to decline as we either do not feel we can add value or accomplish the task or project requested of us. Our goal is to assist our customers and will only take on roles where we feel we will be doing so.
