What TAB Members Say About

The Value of The Alternative Board

Through TAB, I’ve learned to better manage inventory issues, downtime and distribution. After every meeting, I have an “action plan” of new ideas that have worked for other business owners!

 - Bernie Bouchard, Artistic Custom Millworks, Lindenhurst, NY

Business owners are constantly faced with issues such as cash flow, credit lines, working with banks understanding financial information, personnel issues, and growing your business... just to name a few! My fellow board members & TAB facilitator provide me with information, feedback, and advice that you cannot get anywhere else. Being a TAB member has given me the tools and support I needed to take our company from startup to established and prevented me from a lot of mistakes along the way!

 - Donn Costanzo, The Packaging Warehouse, Fort Mill, SC

As a distributor, TAB has helped me develop and implement a merchandise management system, which will reduce my losses. My friends and family did not understand and I was alone until I found TAB.

 - Darrell A. Becht, Lone Star Dental Corp, Arlington, TX

Having a group of business people dedicated to support my goals is one of the key reasons I’m a member of TAB. We are there for each other and give some very direct counsel and direction to each other. The board meetings, with the support of our Facilitator, have given me confidence and business perspective to move ahead in business areas; I might not have been as sure of myself or gotten the results so quickly without TAB.

"My experience in working with my TAB Certified Facilitator™ is like having a "silent partner" in my business helping me assess situations, not only with myself, but also with my customers, suppliers and my employees. His experience and insight has helped direct me to new thinking and more positive results!"

As the owner of a large construction company, my TAB Board has helped me with cash flow issues, 2manage downtime and motivate my staff. I highly recommend TAB to everyone!

 - Tom Reoch, Omni Construction, Ronkonkoma, NY

Our TAB Board members were there when we made the toughest decision we had ever made in our years of building a very profitable business with 95 employees. We decided to leave our last company and build one that was entirely ours and employing our business standards. The TAB Board and our Facilitator gave us encouragement, guidance and support for our new endeavor. We’re now in ourlaunch.

 - Barry and Debbie Russel, Encore Ceramics, Santa Rosa, CA

As the Managing Partner for a local CPA Firm, my TAB Board has helped me with the “non-financials” – marketing, human resources and customer service. I highly recommend TAB to everyone!

 - Robert E. Bertucelli, Bertucelli & Malaga LLP, Ronkonkoma, NY

My family and friends did not understand. My employees were happy with “the old way.” I was alone, until I found TAB and its powerful synergism of leaders helping leaders.

 - Roger Brodt, Sr., Long’s Wheel and Rim, Jacksonville, FL

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.
