About Us

myBusinessGym was founded by Bill Ringle, business growth strategist, eBusiness expert, and prolific author.

Bill has over 15 years experience consulting and coaching business managers and owners to greater economic productivity and personal satisfaction.

We had a soft launch of myBusinessGym in July 2006, and over 100 entrepreneurs signed up within the first 100 days.

About Bill Ringle, founder of myBusinessGym

"I created myBusinessGym as a way for entrepreneurs to become far more successful in a shorter period of time, because doing what we do for a living is so challenging and exciting. "Entrepreneurs who participate in myBusinessGym will have access to the tools, resources, and people that will help them grow a stronger business -- one that is more profitable, more productive, and more satisfying to run."

Five things to know about Bill Ringle to better understand myBusinessGym:

1. Bill Ringle is an entrepreneur — at 12, he started tutoring math during the school year and giving tennis lessons during the summer. He's learned a lot since then, but the same mix of moxie and commitment to high standards can be found in his work today.
2. Bill Ringle markets as easily as most people take a breath — because if you're not marketing your product or service, it's hard for prospective buyers to find you.
3. Bill Ringle has a passion for teaching and sharing what works — clients from around the country and around the world have brought him to speak and deliver seminars to help business people improve their marketing, use of the Internet, and teamwork.
4. Bill Ringle knows how to coach entrepreneurs. Working with entrepreneurs is different from other types of business people because the strong talent, drive, learning style of entrepreneurs is often hard to handle for people who don't get entrepreneurs.
5. Bill Ringle can avoid business pitfalls and problems because he's learned from both his own and other entrepreneurs' experiences and mistakes.
