This September, St. Louis Small Business Magazine (SBM) recognized LEM Business Solutions as one of the Top Small Companies in St. Louis with their Future 50 Award.
In the article, LEM Business Solutions’ Owner, Laura Dalpiaz shared many thoughts and pieces of advice for other business owners. After almost two decades, she’s experienced the many ups and downs of building a truly thriving business within the St. Louis Metro area. Her staff is without a doubt LEM’s greatest asset.
