Time for a Confidential

Assessment of Your Business?

Dear OHBA Members:

There are a number of important reasons I send you and the other 5,000 HBA members around our state a message each month promoting a program we’ve set up with Small Business Growth Partners. First off, HBA members have access to an annual review of their business and a comprehensive 30+ page Business Plan of Actions the Nations’ #1 ranked construction & trade specialized (and private) business coaching and consulting firm. They do not work with the general public. This is all included 100% in your Member Benefits. The actual hard cost of the plan is $4,200, and also included up to 6 DISC/Motivator Assessments for you and your team. If you don’t know what this is, you should definitely dig deeper into this member benefit.

On top of that, I’ve received hundreds of positive reviews about the process and value of the Business Plan of Actions (BPA) they produce for our members. If purchased through a traditional consulting firm, would cost thousands of dollars. It also wouldn’t be nearly as impactful or “real world”, since these folks only work with family-owned businesses and business owners in our industry. Finally, there is no pressure or obligation to retain Growth Partners for coaching or other services once your assessment and BPA are completed.

In my 41 years with the Ohio Home Builders Association, the most common answer I get when asking a member about the value of his or her membership is this: “I’ve become a better professional and my business is stronger.” Whether its learning about new code requirements or discovering a better business practice, I hope the network of resources and information available through your HBA membership is helping you succeed and achieve the goals you have for your business. I firmly believe this member benefit will do just that…particularly if any of the following apply to you and your company at this time:…

• You have hit a growth ceiling, where lack of systems is starting to show in your company with mistakes, and miscommunication (internally, and with customers and prospects) • You aren’t clear on a strategic direction for your company (nor are your employees • You can’t seem to find the right staff and are having team cohesion issues • You are considering Succession Planning • You get a lot of calls, but not many turn into sales • You are generating great sales, but the profit is not there at the end of the month • You are trying to drive the business forward, but keep getting pulled back into the daily operations, and still act as the chief “firefighter” and problem solver • You are becoming burnt out, working more and seeming to accomplish less To register for this member benefit, simply following the steps below.

1. Go to www.smallbusinessgrowthpartners.com 2. Click on Redeem Your BPA in the landing page toolbar 3. Select “HBA Members” and fill out the short questionnaire

If you had a turbulent 2021 or just want a clear plan & path for 2022, I urge you to take advantage of this program and get BPA for your company. In the state of Ohio, HBA members are the only business owners who have access to Growth Partner services.

Thank you for your membership and for the great feedback on this member benefit with Growth Partners.

Vincent J. Squillace, CAE Executive Vice President
