Testimonials

"Business Concepts Inc. has taught me that I am not the only person who feels out of control. And I have learned to just apply what I know."
— Zee Swenson, Distinctive Realty

"We recently partnered with Business Concepts, Inc. to develop a new website for our company. The end result was a site that projects just the right level of sophistication for our small family run business – we love it! And, best of all the website is easy to maintain thanks to the excellent training that BCI provided. BCI worked with us every step of the way by establishing an excellent rapport with us, listening to our suggestions, offering their own suggestions and expertise when needed and maintaining open communications with us throughout the project. Working with Kelley and Kate at Business Concepts, Inc was a truly collaborative effort and a great experience!"
— Joanne Okerman, Okerman Construction and Remodeling LLC

"Kate helped me clarify my statement of what I do, taught me the networking process, helped me flush out all the next steps in the sales process...and then role played them with me until they actually started feeling second nature. It is always a learning process, but Kate taught me it can be honed, and it will always be a work in progress anyway since the world doesn’t stand still!"
— Susan Lankton-Rivas, People Productivity Success

Business Concepts, Inc. is proud to announce the program of My Admin Department.com serving small businesses in New England and internationally.

How we work

Supporting Business Leaders

As a member of one of BCI’s Mastermind boards, you’ll meet every month with fellow board members who share your entrepreneurial spirit and motivation. Your fellow board members are in similar situations but non-competitive fields.

You’ll join a group of 10 others, forming tight bonds of friendship, professional camaraderie, mutual accountability, and mentoring. Through structured discussion, relevant educational tools and interactive engagement, you’ll develop the skills to generate concrete personal and professional growth opportunities. BCI creates individual geographically groups as demand dictates and board meetings typically take place during regular working hours.

All programs are coordinated and run by facilitators who are ‘best of class’ and have run their own businesses or have more than 20 years of hands-on business experience. The current phase of the business, revenue numbers, number of employees (if any), and current growth goals are used to help determine the group most beneficial for each member.

Because of the high level of trust and confidentiality required for a board of advisors to be successful, members must be accountable to each other and willing to make a 12 month commitment to be on the board.

While each group helps designs the flow of its own board, the facilitators provide structured time for each member to discuss their pressing issues and business challenges.
