Gaspee Business Network


What is GBN?
The mission of the Gaspee Business Network is to build a durable, potent, consistent, and incorruptible voice for the Rhode Island small to medium size business community.
Of Business People, By Business People, For Business People
The Gaspee Business Network, GBN, is a movement.  Inspired by the Rhode Island colonists in 1772 who stormed and burned a British ship in opposition to the King's tyranny, the Gaspee Business Network is symbolic of business leaders banding together to push back against over-reaching taxes and regulations.

Custom Wood Signs Made by a Master  
Your Home's Location in 22kt Gold Leaf  

David Wilson had been crafting signs for over 40 years when he first created a wooden sign to bring his passion for boating indoors during the winter months.

 

He made the base out of dried mahogany with carved edges and then lettered his home's latitude and longitude with 22 karat gold leaf edged in navy blue. After experimenting with several finishes, David found that the marine varnish provided the most protection while enhancing the color of the mahogany. What began as a personal art piece for his home is now something you can hang in your own home.

MY Favorite Quotes   
  

"Systems permit ordinary people to achieve extraordinary results predictably."

--Michael Gerber


 

"He who every morning plans the transaction of the day and follows out that plan,
carries a thread that will guide him through the maze of the most busy life.
But where no plan is laid, where the disposal of time is surrendered
merely to the chance of incidence, chaos will soon reign"

 --

Victor Hugo

 

"Goals allow you to control the direction of change in your favor."

-- Brian Tracy, Author


 

Talent will not: nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent".
