Business Owners Roundtable Testimonials 

Here’s what participants say: 

“I have been a member of the RT Series for almost 3 years and I keep coming back.  Score provides a safe place for groups of entrepreneurs to discuss challenges in a structured, yet organic manner. Having an experienced Score mediator lead the series in a structured manner allows so much to be accomplished in the individual sessions and series as a whole.  I recommend any entrepreneur join a series.”
Chris Berena, Scrappy Apparel Company 

“Running a small business can be a lonely journey. The SCORE business roundtable with its group of like-minded business owners has been an incredible resource. The shared insight, honest feedback and accountability to my stated goals has transformed my business.”
Becky Rogoff, Accounting Solutions LLC 

“After running a small business for nearly 20 years, I was skeptical about what I could learn in a business roundtable. Much to my surprise and delight, the information shared by passionate small business owners netted me tens of thousands of dollars by discussing programs available to small business. Both the moderators and participants were best in class. The return on investment far exceeded what I had anticipated and I look forward to being in another roundtable. I highly recommend it to any small business owner.”
Ava Seavey, Avalanche Creative Services, Inc.

“Whether you're a start up or a seasoned business, SCORE does a great job curating and facilitating the BORT series.The opportunity to surround yourself with likeminded business owners to discuss the ever changing business landscape in today's world is invaluable. I would highly recommend this program to entrepreneurs of all levels.”
Ken Landin, Crossroads Brewing Company,Inc

“SCORE's Business Owners Roundtable provides a collaborative, confidential environment to share both successes and struggles with other business owners in a non-judgmental manner. It's an asset that only adds value for any entrepreneur, start-up or small business owner as they learn from one another what works and what’s been tried by others across a multitude of business types in order to help steer one's own business for growth and success.”
Russell Grant, Live Shot Media 

“The road as an entrepreneur has been very exciting but sometimes lonesome. The roundtable's great group of entrepreneurs delivers great feedback and perspective. Each session is packed with a bit of everyone's journey and it's great seeing how different businesses operate and overcome the issues that naturally arise. Business is ever-changing regardless of sector and having a chance to get together with others has helped me get out of the vacuum I usually work in and see how others are adapting and advancing.”
Roy Peer, Peer Basics

“The SCORE Roundtable experience was both extremely valuable and uplifting.  Sharing real life problems, successes and solutions among a great group of similar-size small business entrepreneurs was inspiring.  Everyone was open and supportive.  I am very grateful for the experience.  Go for the accountability.  Come away with camaraderie!”  
Lynne Lambert, NYC Subway Line & MAP’T GEAR

“There is a special energy and momentum that I gain from being part of a community of thoughtful business owners. I've learned a great deal by listening to the difficulties and triumphs of those who attend. I always come away from a meeting with a long to-do list for my own business. It is this commonality, as well as meeting people I have come to call my friends, that are the reasons why I have signed up season after season.”  
Jason Schneider, Stand and Build
