Several years ago, we decided to begin our Boot Camp Programs beginning with our Entrepreneurship Boot Camp one snowy weekend at our conference center in Stratton, Vermont. It was a big hit, and from that we launched a series of boot camps quickly expanding to our Sales Management Effectiveness Boot Camp.

Today, we hold one Entrepreneurship Boot Camp and two Sales Management Boot Camps each year under the Derby Management name.

We also have partnered with the City of Providence, Rhode Island and under the direction of the Providence Chamber of Commerce, we hold one Entrepreneurship Boot Camp and one Sales Management Boot Camp within their annual Launchpad Essential Skills Program. For Providence, we also provide a number of venture pitch and term sheet negotiation programs during the year.

Similarly, we provide the same content to Monroe County in upstate New York and provide three to four boot camp programs each year to their The Entrepreneur’s Network program.

Most recently, we have extended these programs to the Center of Business Development Corporation of New Brunswick, Canada who brought 25 of their very talented entrepreneurs to Boston where we hosted an Entrepreneurship and Sales Effectiveness Program during which we provided intensive content and brought in a variety of entrepreneurs, venture capitalists and the heads of the two largest angel group investors in New England.

Each class is approximately 20 to 25 attendees and last two and a half days. We like to believe that they have been very successful and the comments that we have received from our attendees have been extremely positive.

If you are interested in attending either of these programs, just contact us by calling the Boston office at 617-292-7101 or emailing Jack directly at jack@derbymanagement.com
