The Small Business Mastery Advisory Board

The AKRIS Business Mastery Advisory Board is a member organization dedicated to providing feedback, advice, suggestions, accountability, and best practices that allow the members to grow, flourish and get results. After all, multiple brains and experiences are far smarter, effective and efficient than any single brain or experience.

The AKRIS Small Business Advisory Board is for the small business owner who is:

• Trying to figure out how to create additional revenue streams
• Need objective feedback on challenges you are facing and decisions that must be made
• Being pulled in a thousand different directions by customers, resources, employees, and suppliers and not getting the things done you know you need to do
• Interested in getting help and hold you accountable
• stay informed

Here is what one member has to say.

Al Plastow, Founder of The Institute for Technology Asset Management
“I know how difficult it can be to find honest, accurate, affordable answers to mission critical questions. I know how isolated you can become from business expertise, simply due to fears of exposing too much, or too little. As a member of AKRIS Small Business Mastery Advisory Board, I’ve discovered an incredibly valuable resource—a group of knowledgeable business professionals with whom I can share advice, diverse perspectives & expertise--even friendship. This group is demonstrably the most beneficial resource for unlimited personal & professional growth that I have found in over two decades of intense searching.”

As a small business owner there are four primary issues that consume you and your time. Most owners need to:

• Create more time
• Make more money
• Gain more control over your business
• Increase employee productivity

Here is how the Ivana Taylor has benefited from the Small Business Advisory Board.

Ivana Taylor, Third Force Marketing
“As a small business owner, the most difficult aspect of building and growing my business is taking the time to identify those ideas, strategies and activities that will make me and my business successful. When my business is bustling, I’m so focused on servicing my clients, that I sometimes forget to “feed the fire” that makes my business unique and attractive to customers. These groups put me in front of people that challenge my assumptions about how the world works and give the input and/or whack on the side of the head that I need to go to the next level.”

How does it work?

The Small Business Mastery Advisory Board drives you to implement the success behaviors that successful people use every day. Success people are:

• Selfish (intelligent self interest)
• Results Oriented
• Take Ownership
• Focused
• Persistent
• People Focused
• Disciplined

What do others have to say that have participated in this group?

Ron McDaniel – Outstanda
“I have participated in many business advisory groups and lead groups, and the only two I have gotten a great return on are B2B Connect and AKRIS’s Small Business Mastery Advisory Board. Not only have I gotten leads from both groups, but I have learned about business challenges and issues and how people deal with them. This has really reduced my learning curve and increased my productivity. The close bond I have developed with the people in these groups enables us all to talk freely and really help each other with business challenges.”

Bob Vance – Shamrock Companies

They have helped me define and refine my marketing approach and message. This has lead to some great results.”
