From our main training facility in Akron, our staff provides professional coaching and unique sales and management solutions to the challanges faced by salespeople, sales managers, business owners and other professionals who must build a client base for their services. 

We invite you to explore our site and learn about our programs.  We think you'll find that Business Growth Concepts is unique from traditional coaching, training, and consulting - and we hope you'll take the first steps to finding out how it can work for you.

Business Growth Concepts was founded in 1993 by David E. Weida, President.  Our mission is to provide ongoing training and consulting in the areas of business development, sales, management, leadership and customer service to small and mid-sized businesses.

We grow companies by first growing its people.  In order to achieve our personal potential, training is not a one-time exercise because personal and professional growth is incremental over time.  It must increase knowledge, modify beliefs and inspire new activities for long-term, effective change.  Behavior and habits cannot be changed without consistant coaching, counseling and ongoing support which is necessary to ensure continued success for our clients.

We don't have to say that we get dramatic results... our clients do!
