Success Stories

"TAB offers monthly Board Meetings with other entrepreneurs, where you get strategic advice, honest feedback and new insights. For example, it can help you make better decisions, discover blind spots and really grow. A valuable network for every ambitious entrepreneur”.

“Yes! And a very simple piece of advice was enough: 'you need a kick in the ass'. After postponing the new showroom in Utrecht for two years, I knew after one comment that I just had to do it. My father, girlfriend, or employee could have said the same thing, but I had to hear it from someone who had been in the same place”.

"TAB gives me the opportunity to zoom out from my business every month. The group keeps me sharp, asks questions and gives me insights. Useful to spar with people in depth, far from my own PR business. I am curious to see where we will grow in the coming months."

“I thought I’d do this for 3 months and then I’d see” I’ve been a member for almost 2 years now and the value I get from the monthly TAB Board Meeting in combination with the monthly 1 on 1 coaching has given me insights I would never have had otherwise. I’m really working on my business instead of just in my business.”

"TAB helped me take the step to modernize my company. I followed the advice of my fellow Board members and received help with several innovative changes that lead to a strategic advantage.”

As a TAB board member on an Advisory Board, I have the unique opportunity to gain insights and outside perspective that are crucial to the growth of my business. Berkhan: “The advice I receive is selfless and comes without hidden agendas, which makes it all the more valuable”. Recently, I had the opportunity to look at how another board member approaches his budgeting together. These insights have enriched my understanding of budgeting immensely. Without this collaboration, I would never have gained such detailed knowledge about how accurately I can plan and realize my future growth. In short, being a member of this board gives me the opportunity to look at and improve my business from different angles. The value of the unbiased advice and shared expertise within the board cannot be overstated.

“I am a young entrepreneur and have to find my way in the landscape of 'entrepreneurs'. TAB has helped me to open myself up to this so that I can learn a lot from more experienced entrepreneurs. In addition, I can advise my fellow Board members on trends that are particularly important among the younger generation.”
