Testimonials

As small business owners, we have a habit of being too focused on the day to day operation of our business and not taking the time to stop and look at how to grow our business. The Alternative Board has given me all of the tools that I have needed to point my business in the right direction: becoming organized, planning systematically, and preparing for growth.

I have been looking for some time for an avenue to assemble a group of business professionals to help advise me on my business. TAB provides that avenue, and I have been extremely pleased with both the TAB program and my fellow TAB board members. I would highly recommend TAB to anyone with the need to point their business in the direction of growth, to help with strategic planning, and to help with problem solving on a regular basis.

My experience with TAB has helped me to define my business goals and set a plan in place to achieve them. The biggest benefit however has been the way TAB has helped me integrate my personal goals with my business goals.

As a business owner, I value the opportunity that TAB presents to confidentially share ideas and discuss challenges that come from growing a business. Unlike other positions in a company, the CEO or President really does not have a peer that one can turn to for advice, encouragement and accountability. However, with TAB, I'm able to meet monthly with my peers where I can really discuss issues in a safe environment. In addition, the issues that other TAB members have will usually have some applicability to my business. So, not only do I have the opportunity to discuss my business, I become a better business person as I learn about the businesses of my peers. TAB is an outstanding program if you're looking to learn, share and grow as an individual and as a business owner.
