Kind Words
What our clients say about working with us
"We all have room for improvement no matter where we are in business or in life. FBI has been a great help to us, and it was eye opening where we needed to improve! If more contractors could just get a taste of the peer group/roundtable atmosphere, they would be hooked. Our peer group meetings are one of the most valuable times spent during the year. The ideas generated in each meeting are mind boggling, and they propel us to that next level. If someone ever says anything negative about a peer group, they are not putting in the time to yield the proper results."
Kent Bounds"The Family Business Institute has a very capable staff that can help your family business deal with all kinds of issues. I don’t think I would change a thing about how they worked for us. Mike Lyons has been a blessing to our family, and I am thankful for the opportunity to work with him."
