Training Sessions Underway

2025 HCC Business Plan Competition

30 Teams Accepted into the Competition

Training Sessions 1, 3, 4 & 5 were Virtual

Training Session 2 was Onsite

Training Session #1 was about competition roles, responsibilities, and establishing & defining the business concept.

Held Tuesday evening February 25, this session was led by David Regenbaum, Entrepreneur-in-Residence, Sandra Louvier, Director, and Austin Tenette, Entrepreneur in Residence.

We started with networking and conversation as contestants and advisors logged in early to meet each other and our session leaders.

Sandra opened the session introducing David and Austin. She also spoke about our other entrepreneurial champions Dr. Zachary Hodges, President of HCC Northwest, who founded the competition 18 years ago. He also launched the first Center for Entrepreneurship at HCC along with Dr. Maya Durnovo, our Chief Entrepreneurial Officer and Sandra.

We congratulated the teams chosen for the 2025 HCC Business Plan Competition and thanked the advisors who have volunteered their time and experience to advise these contestant teams.

David, Sandra and Austin covered an overview of the competition timeline, rules and requirements, including the business plan template, contestant and advisor roles and responsibilities, and began the discussion of defining, substantiating and articulating the business concept; in the written plan and verbally. Austin Tenette covered the Business Concept section of the plan.

Follow up materials were relayed to teams and advisors. Each team had been introduced to their advisors via email and interaction had begun. They were encouraged to continue connecting to arrange one-on-one team meetings between training sessions.

Training Session #2 was about Leadership & Team Development, Company Values and Culture, and Mission and Vision Statements.

Sandra Louvier opened the session welcoming the contestant teams and thanking our advisors. Next she introduced Landi Spearman, owner of Organized Shift and a 2015 graduate of our competition. Landi began our session with each team standing to pitch.

Each team lead gave a one-minute introduction of their team and their business concept. It's the beginning of a pitch they will continue to refine and polish. Each will submit their business plans on May 5. Then we'll do more pitch & presentation training on May 6. Teams will also submit a one-minute video pitch and a presentation slide deck on May 12.

All contestant team leads pitched.

All present were invited to write feedback slips that were collected and given to each team at the end.

Landi Spearman went on to facilitate a presentation and more interactive exercises that focused on leadership, company values and culture. This included an intro of the mission and vision statement which led to an interactive exercise, a follow-up workbook and assignment for the next session.

The teams and advisors came early and stayed late to meet with each other and to get to know the others. It was a great evening!

Training Session #3 - Austin Tenette and Karen Sharp

Covered Business Model, Value Proposition and Sales & Marketing

Held Tuesday evening March 18, Training Session #3 was led by Trainer Austin Tenette for Sales & Marketing with Trainer Karen Sharp stepping in to cover Value Proposition.

The opening optional networking time evolved quickly into a lively discussion as team leads shared their Mission & Vision statements to get feedback from the facilitators, competition leaders, advisors and other entrepreneurs in the Zoom room.

The training session passed quickly, covering business model examples, a value proposition intro, the 8 Ps of marketing, sales process, direct and indirect sales channels, customer acquisition costs and sales forecasts.

Contestants and advisors were given follow up information, a course work assignment, a supplemental video by Karen Sharp and handouts to develop their value proposition. They were encouraged to continue connecting to arrange one-on-one team meetings between training sessions.

Training Session #4 Financial Requirements

Were Covered by Nannette Ray

With Templates and Additional Optional Sessions

Offered for Those Who Want More

Held Tuesday evening April 1, Training Session #4 was led by Trainer Nannette Ray for Financial Requirements. Nanette is an experienced highly sought entrepreneur and trainer who dedicates her career (and volunteer time as well) to assist entrepreneurs in understanding and knowing their numbers for strong management and decision making purposes throughout the life of their businesses.

The opening optional networking time went straight to Q&A as eager contestant team leads started asking questions about to handle certain expenses and line items in their financial statements. Once the session started, we covered startup costs, cash flow, break even, sales projections, income statements and balance sheets.

With a little over a month to go before plans are due, contestants were encouraged to work with their advisors throughout April and send draft numbers and sections of their plans for feed back.

OPTIONAL Added Financial Training: Contestants were offered another OPTIONAL Financial Q&A session on Zoom on Tuesday April 22 from 6:00-7:00pm. Course work assignments, financial templates and the session slide deck were given as follow up to the training session.

Training Session #5 - Putting It All Together - the Written Plan

Karen Sharp, Willy Verbrugghe, Austin Tenette and Sandra Louvier

Covered Managing Risk and What Goes into Creating a Strong Plan

This session was designed to help the entrepreneurs focus on building a strong case from start to finish and bring it all together in their plans, with three weeks to go until the plan due date on May 5. First, we considered again why businesses fail and how we've been moving through a process all spring to make decisions that minimize risk and lead to success... and build a strong implementable plan of action.

We covered the flow of past training sessions and work done for each section of the plans, starting with the executive summary and ending with it.

There was lots of interaction and Q&A from entrepreneurs, with answers, discussion and advice from facilitators, advisors and entrepreneurs!

The real magic of the night was the words of inspiration and encouragement from all involved, including many of the advisors and also six competition alumni that came to offer words of advice encouragement and participate in the Q&A.

The sense of community and support was obvious throughout the session. We started it addressing apprehensions, concerns and challenges. This shifted very much so as we moved through the evening. We discussed different approaches and a progression of small focused steps to take all that has been done thus far, to bring it on home to plans due and ready for submission on May 5!

It created a strong sense that we are all moving forward together with a like-minded dedication to this process of building a plan for success that can benefit every team graduating from the competition. Our collective effort and individual contributions created a growing sense of optimism that is even stronger when a community works together toward strong results for all involved!

Helen Callier - Permit Us Now

Alumni & Sponsor Spotlight

Helen Callier,

Permit Us Now

Founder, CEO

HCC Business Plan Competition

Graduate 2016

HCC Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses, Graduate Cohort 9

Recurring Sponsor from BPC Alumni Circle to Bronze

Brief Description - Permit Us Now is a building permit expediting company serving commercial & government clients throughout Houston, Austin, and other metroplexes across Texas.

When Helen entered our competition, she'd launched and grown Bradlink, LLC and was continuing to do so, bolstered by her experience in the HCC Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses program. Helen also had her sights set on developing her idea to launch a new venture, Permit Us Now. She knew there was no guarantee that her new company would do well unless she treated that new company (Permit Us Now) as well as her first company.

When Helen got into the HCC Business Plan Competition, her primary focus was developing a growth plan to launch Permit Us Now, not on winning prize money. She saw the competition as a means to tap into great structured training and advising and to stay accountable while doing so, working alongside like-minded entrepreneurs.

She began taking action during the BPC and came out with a growth plan for a successful launch of PermitUsNow in the summer of 2016 following the competition. “We won, our clients and the marketplace won and continues to win! As an example, we then went on to play a crucial role in permitting key areas for Super Bowl 51 which resulted in PermitUsNow being 1 out of 5 small businesses highlighted in the commemorative NFL Super Bowl 51 Program Book and Texas Monthly Magazine.”

Website: https://permitusnow.com/

We asked her to give us an update on recent projects and developments at Permit Us Now for this past year through Spring 2024: 

• We continue to be the go-to permitting resource on H-E-B projects across Texas and for OTG United Airlines Concession projects at IAH. 
• We are currently handling permits for new ground up UA IAH Operational Facilities.
• We are providing permitting services on the $2 billion+ new ground up Harris Health LBJ Hospital including its central utility plant, parking garage and heliport.   
• We are providing permitting services for BRIZO Construction, long-time client, in Mobile, AL, across the state of Florida and in the Greater Houston area. 

• We are grateful to continue to work on HCCS projects and have permitted over 20 Houston Community College System bond projects since 2023 with ongoing projects in 2025
• Awarded and started working on the $2.44 billon Austin ISD 2022 Bond Program providing permitting services. Currently, we are working on multiple AISD school projects that are new ground up and major modernization. 

Growth: We are expanding staff to meet client and market opportunity demands in Houston, Austin, San Antonio, and in North Texas.

Helen Callier is known around Houston and the state as a Connector in the Community; in service to multiple industries and organizations, and in support of small business owners. 

We are touched and grateful that Helen has been a recurring HCC Business Plan Competition Alumni Circle Sponsor since 2017. She has served as speaker at our opening reception and closing awards ceremony and a competition judge. For the last two years, she has also raised her sponsorship to the Bronze level. Thank you Helen! From our hearts to yours!
