BABAC is a network of business advisors and consultants specializing in the core spectrum of financial and strategic services necessary to all growing businesses.

While each one of us maintains our own successful practice, we have come together as an outsource advisory group for up-and-coming local businesses; our primary role is as a sounding board for growth issues. Simply put, we love good business; and, we are intrigued by both the common themes and the unique challenges entrepreneurs face in growing their businesses. We believe that building community and structures to engage collaborative conversation around these topics is a powerful contribution to the Bay Area business community.

Our strengths as an advisory board lie in:

• Our collective expertise. Each company and service provider represented in the group has a depth of understanding in a particular key business strategy area, with years of successful client engagements in their repertoire.
• Our shared values. We engage with each client as an individual, tailoring our strategy and advice to the particular values and vision of that client. We get a kick out of entrepreneurs, are passionate about creative growth strategies, hold a strong focus on big picture questions, and have a lot of fun in our collaborative conversations.
• Our unique program. Our Roundtable Program is designed to provide a comprehensive assessment of your business opportunities and challenges in an engaging, sometimes confronting, always fun hour and a half meeting.
• Our unwavering honesty. We believe that many entrepreneurs in growing businesses struggle with surface issues that are really symptoms of a larger ‘blind spot’ issue – and we are unafraid to call those into the light.

BABAC’s unique structure and mission allow it to be an unusually fruitful resource for members of the group as well. By virtue of our active participation, we are kept apprised in changes in the business climate in every major field represented by BABAC’s comprehensive list of advisors. Through joint speaking opportunities, our network of partnerships with other organizations serving a similar constituency, and our in-house cross-functional educational focus, we find that our exposure to the unique practice areas of those outside our individual fields enhances the value we provide to our clients.

BABAC understands that today’s small business leaders are extremely time-poor, therefore we have consolidated this synergistic group of consultants as a way of leveraging time as productively as possible. BABAC is a client’s one-stop shop to obtain the right input for any business issue. BABAC can recommend individual contributors uniquely suited to a particular client and that client’s particular needs, or BABAC can assemble a scalable team of consultants tailored to a client’s specific needs, and will collaborate effectively to create sharp strategies and measurable results.
