    Discovering America’s Best Companies

    Share

    America's Best CompaniesFor this week’s episode of the Duct Tape Marketing Podcast I visited with Jim Tracy, founder of America’s Best Companies. (ABC)

    America’s Best Companies is a small business organization dedicated to providing the tools, resources, guidance and information small business owners need to start their business, stay in business, and grow their business while maintaining a competitive edge in the marketplace.

    Tracy has developed an interesting virtual association model and seems to be gathering some real steam. One of the most utilized features is a discounted products and services feature that allows members to purchase supplies and services at member’s only pricing.

    The cost of becoming a member is 39.95/mo or $399/yr and includes a monthly print magazine America’s Best.

    AT&TThis episode of the Duct Tape Marketing podcast is brought to you by att.com/onwardsmallbiz. Resources for the small business owner.

    • I think that the price of membership in this virtual association model is fairly large. How it pay off? I think that many people have asked a similar question.
    • In this economic climate, the green brands will survive!

      I just signed up for Sustainable Brands International and so should you. Plus it's in Miami this year - not a bad place in December.

      Here's a snippet from the website: Amway, Best Buy, Coke, EBay, HP, Johnson & Johnson, Panasonic, Proctor &
      Gamble, Unilever, UPS, USDA, together with hot design, innovation and brand
      innovators are all coming to the newly reopened Fontainebleau Resort in
      Miami Beach Dec 9-11 to help envision and co-create the future. Call and ask for a discount. I got 15% off...
