Looking to make a bottom line difference in you business? Then meet with other Long Island business owners to learn more about The Alternative Board. Sponsored by Empire National Bank.
The Alternative Board (TAB) makes a bottom-line difference for Long Island business owners. Not sure if TAB can help you? Let some of our members share their experiences:
During my TAB Board Meeting I discussed my escalating insurance costs and the tremendous renewal increase I was facing. My TAB Board, which included a member in the insurance industry, gave me advice on how to obtain rates from sources other than my broker. The advice I received was a home-run! I secured insurance with another company that resulted in saving $50,000 per year. Thank you TAB!
Mike Gusman, Artisan Stoneworks Corp., Deer Park
TAB led me to information on two New York State programs. One provided a grant for employee quality training in the amount of $28,000 and the second provided a reduction of interest for the mortgage on our building in the amount of $40,000. I've been a TAB member now for two years and my sales have increased more than 10% the first year and over 20% in the second. Without a doubt, I can truly say the benefits received from TAB have justified the cost of membership, and much more!
Al Felice, Rapid Rivet & Fastener Corp., Farmingdale
TAB helped me develop a business plan needed to acquire a bank loan to expand my business and suggested a state program that saved me 2% on the equipment loan needed to expand my business. This resulted in saving my business over $28,000!
John Harkins, Ocean Printing, Ronkonkoma
Based on the input I got from my board on some specific things I should include in client proposals I was able to get two jobs valued at $1,300,000 that I feel I otherwise would not have gotten.

As a distributor, TAB has helped me expand my business by 40% and develop the structure needed to help sustain that growth. I'm pleased with the results I have received with TAB who helped me work on my business, not just in it.
Ira Krinick, Ponderosa Packaging, Melville
With the support and advice from my board, I was able to stop a large company from bullying me into paying them $160,000 and to get them to pay me the $48,000 they owed me!
Laura Frodell, Master Wire & Cable, Inc., Bohemia
Our TAB Board members and facilitator have helped us deal with the on-going business issues we have faced over the years as a laser job shop. They have worked with us to plan strategically and helped ensure we are secure during the economic downturns and to capitalize on our strengths and grow in a controlled and targeted way. Our three partners now work together much more effectively as a team making all our working time more pleasurable. I am glad I found TAB.
