Talk Up Tuesday – A segment with Rob Hilditch from Harding’s, Your Improvement Company, showcasing all the great people, friends, companies, vendors and support workers that help Harding’s do what they do.

Today on Talk Up Tuesday – BFCK.ca, a local CALGARY Annual Charity Golf Tournament our on by local business owners and leaders benefiting under privileged children. Like-minded individuals can certainly effect change. Just look at the difference the great group of guys who started the Business Fore Calgary Kids (BFCK) annual golf tournament ten years ago have made. What started as a chat over coffee (or beers, one might think) between Bob Cardell and John Fitzsimmons evolved into the discussion as to what business men could do to help less-advantaged kids in our city. A few phone calls later and the rest, as they say, is history. The Foundation’s aim is to raise money for non-profit organizations that support local kids in need through an annual charity golf tournament.

 

Today is a special Talk Up Tuesday about The BBB in Southern Alberta and the East Kootenays, or the CALGARY BBB.

For many years I was ignorant to the BBB and what this great group does. I assumed it was just a complaint resolution platform but it is so much more than that.

I was re-introduced to the BBB about two years ago through a charity event they held making sandwiches. I immediately wanted to get involved in this one as it was an endeavor that we had done at Joeys’s for many years for the CALGARY Drop In Centre.

I then started attending some of their Power Lunches and my eyes were opened to just what this organization was all about. It is not just Complaint Resolution, although that tool is great as it allows transparency and to #startwithtrust, it is also about so much more for local and small businesses.

Being a BBB Accredited Business lends credibility to you business by showing consumers that you are a trusted brand and that your business has been vetted as legitimate, established business. It gives you greater visibility in the marketplace through different platforms like their networking events, helps with citations for SEO and has a portal for lead generation. There isn’t a lead we haven’t closed with the BBB because the #trust is built for us through our accreditation.

The events they hold allow for networking and to establish mentorship’s with other business leaders in the community. As well as get feedback for your business and give you lots of educational/learning opportunities to help you grow and operate your business efficiently.

The leadership and operations team at the BBB are top notch. It’s operated very well with a great group of people who truly care about helping you with your business.

Check out your local BBB!

Talk Up Tuesday’s; a new segment on our social feeds to shout out to all the other great companies that we work and partner with. Companies we recommend that do exceptional work or that just plain help us get by in our daily operations. Companies that just get ‘it’. First up; Browns Social House. I hold more meetings at Brown’s than I do in my office. Being an ex-restaurant guy I am always thoroughly impressed with the service and consistency of food quality from Brown’s. Their menu has something for everyone and their atmosphere is relaxed and classy but pub-like. You know, a Social House! Check them out @BrownsSocialHouse
