Listening
to other owners discuss issues, solutions
and challenges has provided a perspective
you cannot achieve on your own. Seeing
others plan for more than they can get done
has helped me feel better about my own
challenges.

Having a diverse
group of business owners who bring both
their corporate and personal experience into
a confidential setting is critical to the
growth of my business as well as how work
supports my family lifestyle. Yes, my
revenue has increased by 30% since my
invovlement with TCB and Tom Earle, the
facilitator; but other criteria that measure
success such as time with family give more
meaning than a percentage bottom line.

You can count on
Tom Earle, to take a strong interest in your
business. He helped us understand our
company's strengths and weaknesses. We were
therefore able to focus on what was most
critical. He was able to illuminate the
risks in our current business model and
guide us – along with input from the board –
towards planning and executing effective
marketing plans. Several opportunities for
marketing investments arose and the Board
helped us evaluate those options and pursue
the most appropriate action. We used the
Board to assess and validate business
decisions. If we couldn’t sell it to them,
it put the offer/plan in serious doubt.

members provide insight into issues that
assist me in operations, financial analysis,
and planning. I have learned in these
meetings that everyone has similar issues;
however, solutions vary, depending on the
type of business. Feedback from board
members, speaker courses, and a variety of
literature provided at the meetings help me
run my company.
