ORIGINATION - a division Michael E Gerber CompaniesWe teach people just like you what you need to do, but BEFORE you start your new business, BEFORE you invest your hard-earned money, BEFORE you go to all the trouble to write your business plan, BEFORE you take the risk like the other 137 thousand other small business start ups will take today, only to fail before they reach their fifth anniversary. B.A.N.G. (Business Accountability Networking Group) is basically a "mastermind" group. The concept of these groups was first introduced by Napoleon Hill nearly seventy years ago. He was the first author of the modern era to specifically study successful business people and then to find the commonalities for the purpose of educating other people about the elements necessary for success. One of the commonalities that he found among ALL of these great men was that they employed what he termed to be a "mastermind group," that is, a group of people that they met with on a regular basis to help them to achieve their goals.
