What Indianapolis TAB Board Members Say About the Value of TAB…
I joined TAB because:
"I wanted to take my business to the next level. After surviving the three-year start-up phase, I knew I needed outside help to improve my administration of the company."
–Karen Zwick, 1st Class Solutions, Inc.
"I am an "accidental" business owner. I found myself with a growing business without the education or experience for the administration and financial management. TAB is a great resource for shared learning and support."
–Deborah Wood, Deborah Wood & Associates, Inc.
"I needed someone to give me input (both positive and negative) as opposed to being surrounded by "yes" men."
–Jan Kilies, Circle Office Supplies, Inc.
"I was interested in gaining more knowledge of financial workings of our company, a group to be accountable to for business operations and consultation with a business advisor on a regular basis."
–Pam Ruster, Supportive Systems, LLC.
"My business was starting to grow, and I did not have the experience or knowledge to grow the business properly. I was looking for a mentor and guidance from peers who have "already been there and done that". TAB has become my mentor and I now hate to miss a Tab meeting, as it is for ME!"
–Karla Schilling, K & K Computer Solutions, Inc.
"It allowed me to surround myself with other business owners who had similar problems and solutions, so I would not have to reinvent the wheel."
–Jim Baker, William E. Baker, Inc.
The most significant benefit of TAB for me is:
"Taking the time to focus on the company and reflect on direction, purpose and goals for the company and myself."
–Skip Kaub, Intelex, Inc
."TAB holds me accountable to look at financials and strategy, not just daily operations. Also the monthly meetings and executive coaching are invaluable."
–Sue Fink am, Ergonomics Plus, Inc.
"The ability to brainstorm with other business leaders, which helps me in making important decisions. The free flow of ideas is also very beneficial."
–Renee Smith, TigArt Laser System, Inc.
"Because TAB members have really come to know my business over the years, I can share issues with them that I would never share with employees. I find their advice to be on the mark!"
–Norm Melzer, Press 96
"Being able to bounce ideas off other business owners who are experiencing the same type of problems and concerns. Also, the one-on-one discussion with the TAB Facilitator is helpful."
–Pat Sherck, Sherck Hussey & Johnson, LLC.
"It has been a valuable experience. We have saved thousands of dollars by drawing on the experience of my fellow TAB members and Facilitator. Situations which seem to be very difficult in the beginning become manageable when the input from Tab members is taken into consideration. There is always a good chance that when a problem or challenge arises, it is something that a TAB member has already solved. After a TAB meeting, I am usually refocused and ready to attack my issues."
–Rudi Sachs, Eimeldingen Corporation
"Forced Accountability – My fellow TAB members hold me accountable for meeting goals. Peer pressure can be a wonderful thing."
–Blake Wallis, Multiguard Corporation
