Entrepreneurial Success Institute
History
ESI was new in 2004, but we cannot take credit for its establishment. It was actually the idea of a long-term client, an entrepreneur, who desired more of our services, but did not feel she could afford them at our standard hourly rate.
She indicated that she would be willing to commit to using our services over an extended period of time in return for a discounted rate. This sounded reasonable to our "Powers That Be"; hence, ESI was born. Seriously, as was the case back in 1988 when The Business Advisory Group, LLC was founded, ESI provides us with yet another way to offer cost effective assistance to businesses and individuals. We help start-ups establish the proper formal structure for their operations. Now, through ESI, we can help ensure that not only are the businesses established properly, but also that they have a greater chance for success from the beginning.

How does the program work?
Your investment amounts to only two or three hours per month of your time and less than $7.00 per day for a year.
Our investment in you is a 50+% reduction in our standard hourly rate and a commitment to helping your business growth and success. In our monthly sessions, which are 2 hours the first two months of a quarter and 3 hours the third, we can discuss topics such as those listed on this page or current issues you are having with your business. The choice is yours!
During the 3-hour meetings, our BSP® clients may use part of the time for updating their business plans - another significant savings. Bottom line - we are prepared to work with you in a number of areas but the program will always be what is pertinent to you!
WARNING! This is not coaching, but solid, difference-making face-to-face mentoring. If you truly desire real improvement, this method is proven to be the most effective.
