I’ve been a member of MBC for over half of my life, and it has been one of my most rewarding experiences personally and professionally.
Andy Dinkin, Author & Business Owner
When I came to Charlotte after my military career, I needed to integrate into the community network with fellow business owners. The members accepted me and mentored me about how things are done and how to successfully run a business in this region. Frankly, I’ve not gotten project work or sales from members, but the referrals and honest advice and assessments have been invaluable. This is not a leads group, but rather businesspeople helping each other.

I have been a member of MBC since 1998. I have known and trusted the members for their integrity and business acumen. Meeting twice a month you get to know how well other members use the groups services and find all to be trustworthy. I have no problems recommending fellow members businesses to friends and family. I also know I can call anyone for their advice, it's like having your own board of directors that you can get their opinions.
