What is benchmarking?  The buzz these days is that it is an effective tool to improve nearly any industry.  Business benchmarking allows industry leaders to get together in a non-competitive atmosphere to trade tips, strategies and criticisms.  Maybe your business is doing poorly reaching a particular customer base, but another owner in a different part of the country is having great success there.  That leader can help you learn how to improve your company’s performance.  In turn, you can help others learn how to improve the bottom line in other areas.  Business consultant Ron Sturgeon has been running such business mentoring programs for years, and he is committed to helping entrepreneurs like you succeed.  Regardless of the business you are in, Ron’s CEO roundtable or other benchmarking group can help you boost your company’s profitability and performance.  sk
