Free Consultation Offer

If you are not sure your company is a candidate for double-digit growth, answer 10 questions to qualify for a FREE, personalized consultation to find out.

*BGP will meet at your site for a free, initial consultation if within 20 miles of Amherst, New York; or BGP will meet with your management team for a free, initial consultation if you wish to travel to Amherst, New York.

Why a free* consultation? Because our greatest challenge is to identify the 1 in 100 small businesses in the U.S. and Canada that have a unique capacity for exponential growth.

It is not a sales call, and we are not trying to hook customers. Business Growth Partners has a unique aptitude working with companies in their developmental years to position their management, operations systems, and personnel for exponential growth, while organizing to maintain a stable, profitable business for the long-term. Research shows that the most successful companies are those that effectively balance their short-term objectives with long-term goals.

Once we receive your answers, one of Business Growth Partners’ principals will call you to have a brief conversation about your current business status and its capacity for growth over the next few years. We think it’s a good way to demonstrate our proactive approach to helping our clients succeed, and stay that way.

Your answers to the following questions will give us some fundamental information about your business and your management. This data is held in the strictest confidence and is not shared with anyone other than the administrative staff at Business Growth Partners (see Confidentiality Statement below).
