A little bit about me:
Hi guys! I’m excited to join this group – hopefully I can support your business. I’m the creator and CEO of BusinessPowerTools.com (formerly JIAN), best known for BizPlanBuilder® business plan software. I graduated from UC Santa Barbara and have worked for a number of tech companies in Southern California and Silicon Valley. I started making real money after I launched my own company and now I have 40+ years of sales, marketing and management experience. Along the way, I was elected to the White House Conference on Small Business and was nominated for Ernst & Young’s “Entrepreneur of the Year." My book, Business Black Belt, applies lessons from 37 years of personal development workshops, martial arts, flying, and real-world business success to building companies. I’m sure I can help you and so can my http://www.BusinessPowerTools.com online dashboard. (You might think of it like Netflix for the business tools you never knew you needed, to work ON your business!) It’s all of our content from 29 years of windows apps and experience remastered into a seamless cloud-based collaborative dashboard. Michael Gerber (E-Myth) called it, "The customizable encyclopedia of everything you need to know about your business... but were afraid to ask!" Click to try it!
