The following are actual quotes from local business owners who
are TAB members. All are the leaders of their respective companies.
“For me TAB was the answer to the feeling of isolation
that we have as owners. The private sessions with my TAB Certified
Facilitator, among other things, assist me in focusing and balancing
my personal and business goals. TAB has been a critical element
of my personal and my company’s success.”
Marti Turocy, Quality Systems Integrators, Eagle, PA
“Fellow members are interested in the long-term personal
and business success of the group. Understanding this, it should
not surprise you that there have been times when I addressed
certain actions only because I did not want to face my fellow
members at the next month’s meeting without having implemented
suggestions that I had committed to follow. As a CEO, I consider
this “peer pressure” a valuable motivator.”
Robert Pickard, Underwriting Specialists, Inc., Ft.
Washington, PA
The monthly group meetings are something to look forward to.
There are spontaneous humorous moments, as well as deeply serious
business and personal moments. The friendships that have developed
among my fellow TAB members are based upon mutual respect and
support on both a personal and professional level.”
Brian Hessler, Hessler Enterprises, Elkins Park, PA
I refer to my TAB Board as my “financial and management
psychological Board”. It’s the place where I can
openly discuss issues affecting my business, get ideas to resolve
situations that come up prior to each meeting, and get the support
that I need when I feel less than optimally motivated.”
Nissen Isakov, LCR Electronics, Inc., Norristown, PA
“I openly discuss confidential problems and issues with
my TAB board – matters I don’t discuss with anyone
else in my company, or even with my CPA or attorney. The result
is feedback that I get no other way.”
Steven Scharr, Metal Sales and Service, Kennett Sqaure,
PA
“The suggestions from TAB members helped me solve a problem
threatening my business by coming up with ideas I hadn’t
even considered.”
Paul Fairchild, Fairchild Management Associates, Chester
Springs, PA
Private sessions with my TAB Certified Facilitator have helped
me analyze my business better.”
Julie Kronenberg, Vicker’s Tavern, Lionville,
PA
“My TAB Certified Facilitator is a valuable consultant.
He helps me make strategic decisions and evaluate business alternatives.”
Dan Scully, American Environmental Enterprises, West
Chester, PA
“Membership in TAB has helped me develop more focused
marketing plans and the meetings with Board members give me
useful ideas for helping my business grow.”
Michelle Giardino, Crossroad Solutions, Exton, PA
"I have experienced tremendous value through the sharing
of opportunities and challenges in a confidential and supportive
environment. We share similar challenges and enjoy incredibly
similar opportunities. We mutually encourage and advise, drawing
from our diverse experience."
Jeff Williams, Triple H Construction Co., Lancaster,
PA
"The challenges of growing one's business are universal.
The trust, openness and mutual support available as a TAB member
is quite unique. It makes all the difference in just making
a profit or growing a healthy business."
Joanne Morton, Morton Fine Furniture, Lancaster, PA
"My experience with TAB has been extremely rewarding. I
have become more focused and task oriented due to the accountability
I have to other board members and myself. The commitment of
the entire board to help each other is exhilarating. The board
is truly an extension of our business."
Lawrence Gemmell, GemChem, Inc., Lancaster, PA
“Since I joined TAB I have become a much better leader
of my company.”
Mark DeHarde, Ultraflex Systems, Inc., Downingtown,
PA
Almost 5,000 small business owners can’t
be wrong; that’s how many leaders of small businesses
have benefit from the TAB system in our eleven years of existence.
