If you’re an entrepreneur or a business leader, business counseling may be the last thing on your mind. These roles can be lonely—as you advance to corporate executive levels, your possibilities for mentorship and coaching become increasingly limited. Simultaneously, demands on your time and attention increase.

It can be even more difficult for small business owners, who sometimes work in isolation and without professional guidance or criticism. So, how do entrepreneurs and corporate leaders advance as their jobs and organizations grow?

A business coach may be the solution for you. Business coaches are experienced specialists who provide guidance and comments to startups, entrepreneurs, and corporate executives based on their actual business needs.

A dreamer, worker, motivator, and leader are just a few of the characteristics that define Mariet Ostos. Her mission is to help small companies grow to the next level of success. “This career is my passion, and I hope that people will allow me to help them and their company.” She uses Quickbook consultant, which is one of the programs she recommends to her clients. “I love to teach. That is why I also offer Quickbooks classes to companies or individuals who would like to learn this system.” 

Mariet understands how vital it is to know and learn how to handle money in order to become affluent. Because this is a talent that everyone can learn to help them make better decisions, she wishes to assist as many people as possible in changing their lives. She feels that financial education should be considered a requirement in schools. People in Venezuela don’t even talk about money. They believe that possessing money entails being involved in drug dealing and other illegal activities. However, she feels that discussing money may assist in improving people, as well as their society and the globe.

Early Life

Mariet Ostos, born in Caracas, Venezuela, immigrated to Atlanta, Georgia, at the age of 19 with $1,000 and a kid on the way in 2000, when her nation was in upheaval. To survive in Georgia, she originally lived on the streets and cleaned houses, bathrooms, and offices. She was then transferred to a domestic violence shelter and gave birth to her daughter, Mary Ann Ostos. She left the shelter after six months and relocated to Florida to pursue her ambition of starting her own business.

Ostos studied accounting to become a professional tax counselor and began assisting residents and small businesses in her area in 2006. She did not, however, achieve quick success since she had to knock on doors in her community to explain herself and the services she provided. Ostos is now a successful businesswoman who was named Entrepreneur of the Year by the Society of Emotional Intelligence for her community involvement.

Her trip had been long and difficult. Ostos recently opened her heart to WomELLE and discussed her life, profession, beliefs, hobbies, and, of course, her daughter, Mary Ann.

Dreaming for Getting Better

With the conditions in which Ostos country was, she had to decide for the future of her daughter. She shares, “I had to solve the problem quickly, so I decided to move to another country, alone. I had visited Atlanta, Georgia before, but when I was put in the position of choosing, I knew this was where I wanted to live.” She further adds, “I moved in with a thousand dollars in my pocket and a bundle full of dreams. I lived in a shelter for 6 months. The lady in charge offered me a place to live in exchange for work because I had no legal documents at the time to work. That was the first time someone gave me a chance, and it gave me hope and determination to move on. I lived there for 6 months until I realized I had to get out and start my own journey. I started by cleaning houses, bathrooms, and offices. No matter what I did, I never lost focus on my goals of having my own business. I never stopped dreaming. Giving up was never an option.“

After years of studying tax law, Mariet took the initial step and opened her own tax preparation agency in Atlanta in May 2007. In 2009, she was contracted to do a market analysis for the state of Florida; Orlando was a rapidly rising metropolis, and Mariet didn’t hesitate to relocate and thrive in this new location. She relocated to Orlando in 2010, eager to contribute to a new community and improve her experiences. She had to start from the ground up, knock on doors, explain my services, and spread her name.

After around 5 years, she observed that some individuals began to come to her office for counsel and assistance. Mariet made the decision to make a difference and have an influence on the people in her life. She got her Personal Coaching license in 2014, followed by an Emotional Intelligence degree, and was then motivated to join the John Maxwell team. This was a means for Mariet to gain the information she required to teach leadership and set her standards; she learnt how to provide tools to help people live better and stress-free lives.

Later in 2016, she decided to start leadership and motivational classes to influence her community.

Recognition for Excellence

Mariet was named Entrepreneur of the Year by the Emotional Intelligence Society in 2015. From early 2016 to early 2021, she was awarded the best tax preparation office award by the top businesses in Orlando. Receiving these honors has boosted my motivation to serve others. In 2021, Mariet was named one of the Success 125 most influential people for making long-lasting, positive changes in people’s lives. It’s the best feeling in the world to see the people she loves and cares about achieve their goals and give them the optimism they need to continue forward.

Advice for Emerging Leaders

Mariet refers to herself as a Latino Tax Pro and is a member of an organization of Latino tax professionals that believes in providing ethical and moral service to their clients. Her advice to young leaders is to trust in themselves, to devote as much time as possible to studying, to support one another, and to be disciplined. “Discipline is the key to success,” she explains.

Mariet believes that the first step in starting a business is to do something that you enjoy, to learn as much as you can, and to invest in yourself. She adds that she will continue to invest in education for herself and her team, as well as in community service and dreaming.
