By their own estimations, the participants in our last forum's topic, "Ending The Year STRONG!" realized over $475,000+ worth of collective, bottom-line value just from ideas they learned in our forum and from each other that could be implemented starting the very next day!

Are you a Business Owner? Whether you are a Sole Proprietor with no employees or a Corporation with 2-50 employees – this Forum is designed for you!

The Entrepreneurial Excellence Business Forum - Manhattan is part of an international national network of small business owners. Since 2002, our members are focused on achieving greater results in their businesses with less time and effort. This Forum is for Business Owners Only.

We are not just a MeetUp Group. Each Business Forum holds monthly in-person meetings for its members.  Our members are small business entrepreneurs that believe in personal and professional development, understand the power of consistent learning and embrace the power of mindshare.  Our members understand the values of Relationships, Knowledge and Support.

Each monthly forum meeting will give you time for formal & casual networking, followed by panel discussions, business development sessions, skills training and personal development. The relationships you build and the forum’s learning opportunities will enable you to grow your business through a structured word-of-mouth marketing network.

Business cards, a positive attitude and a willingness to contribute and help others are key factors to the success of the group and each individual member.

Unlike other groups, EEBF is NOT A  NETWORKING GROUP.  While networking is part of what we do, our focus is to get bottom line results for small business owners through the sharing of business strategies and real world business owner to business owner experience.  This is also not a forum for soliciting your business to the other members. 

In each meeting we have some networking time, an interactive workshop on subject matter such as: Marketing, Sales, Customer Service, Management, Leadership, Teamwork Development, Communication, Cash Flow Management, Time Management, etc. and we have dedicated time to Business Owner Mindshare. 

The meetings are fun, constructive, powerful, inspirational and motivational.  Here in New York City, we are building a face-to-face community. Our Meetup and  online sites are a nice, easy way for all of us to communicate, but we are not looking to build an online community.  The meeting is results oriented so you may leave with new ideas and action plans to implement into your business the very next day.

Our Forums are an extension of the nationally syndicated Entrepreneurial Excellence Radio Show, hosted by Frank J. De Raffele Jr.  Frank is known as the Voice of the American Entrepreneur and one of the foremost authorities on small business entrepreneurship in the USA, Europe and Asia.(Visit www.eeradioshow.com to listen to the archives). 

Our Manhattan Forums are conducted by the man called "The Czar of Networking" by CBS Radio, Tim Houston, author of the Amazon.com Top 3 Business Bestseller, The World's Worst Networker: Lessons Learned By The Best From The Absolute Worst!

If you sign up for this group, our expectation is that you are interested in attending one of the monthly Forums where you will learn about membership in the EEBF.  At the Forum, you will receive information about becoming a member where you can build relationships with like minded people and learn from their best practices and the pitfalls they experienced and wish to avoid in the future.

Visit us at one of our upcoming forums to experience the power of EEBF!
