What does the BDCC bring to the
table? |
Well, even though there are existing
chambers that provide great services for
small business owners and the community.
I still believe we have something to offer.
I have taken my experience in consulting
a wide variety of businesses and I wanted
to teach others how to avoid costly and
damaging mistakes to their business, education
that was not offered or shared with me.
When looking back on when I started in business
I constantly ran into issues such as:
_____-
How to obtain access to business development
tools.
_____- How
to deal with negative influences and constructive
criticism.
_____- How
to build successful relationships and
partnerships.
_____- How
to deal with ideas that are taken and
not collaborated on.
_____- How
to positively network.
_____- How
to impressively and affordably market.
_____- How
to maintain a consistent drive.
_____- How
to overcome disappointment and keep going.
Most of these questions I felt were
not being addressed and if they were I
didn’t agree with the method in
which it was being given. This is why
at the BDCC (Business DreamWorks Chamber
of Commerce) we treat our members' issues
and goals with more than a “politically
correct” response. We take it personally,
the way my business wasn’t addressed.
However, it has truly been challenging
in creatively servicing today’s
passionate business owners and entrepreneurs
and we see the reward. At the BDCC we
strive to continue to raise the bar of
expectation on ourselves and we work constantly
to improve every facet of our organization
from a business development aspect to
customer service.
I truly believe that when you’re
trying to facilitate something significant
within the community is when you experience
the greatest challenge, opposition, pain,
and achievement all rolled in one. This
is an obstacle that we are willing to
face and overcome because our work affects
more than our membership capacity. It
affects our communities in the amount
of action one is willing to take to move
forward, something I believe that we as
a society are losing hold of. So I welcome
you to the BDCC where we all go through
everyday issues, successes and making
history.
As always, we wish you the best in your
endevors and may your success affect and
be shared with more than just you.
