Expert Help
Entrepreneur, August, 2000 by Cynthia E. Griffin
Boards give experienced advice.
Need business advice from some one who's been there and done that? Then consider forming an advisory board with the help of the President's Resource Organization (PRO).
Companies with $750,000 to $50 million in sales benefit most from PRO'S services, which include helping entrepreneurs form their boards of advisors, handling the administrative duties associated with establishing the groups and scheduling monthly four-hour strategy sessions. A trained facilitator recruits all board members and leads the meetings.
In addition to meetings, PRO members can participate in business seminars held throughout the year. Advisory board members can also post questions and solutions on the PRO bulletin board.
