But that is not what this show is about.....have you ever watched it DO???
This show is about making a business better, keeping it, and making money.

Stand up for what you believe in.....even if you have to stand alone.

Hey, everyone remember too, there are businesses that buy other businesses, that always seems like a good option.

Yes I would also like to know where I can sign up and participate for the "We Mean Business" program. I own a small business in Roselle, IL. and I think it would be great to have their team come in and give me tips and help to improve my business.

I would love to participate in this show, but can't figure out how to sign up...HELP!
My husband and I own Music Row Picture Framing and Autographs in Hermitage, TN. Its a one of kind type business and one you won't soon forget.
We need help - online sales are great, but foot traffic sucks to be honest.

How do you get them to come to your business!? I really could use some help and advice! I run a small yarn shoppe and everyday I hang on the verge of "do I stay open or do I close". I have a wonderful clientel and don't want to lose them. I enjoy running my own business and being my own boss but sometimes it is so stressful. My system of inventory and accounting could use an emense upgrade and maybe even the store. I advertise, participate in the knitting communities on and offline and still don't seem to get ahead of myself. HELP!!!!

First I'd like to say that I've enjoyed watching this show, so much that my boyfriend and I told his mother about it. I would've loved to have seen this post before the contest ended but of course didn't until today. She owns her own thrift shop (clothing, household items and toys for infants to plus size adults) She's had 3 other stores before but this one is a special project she started again after battling cancer yet has found that it's active again. While she's been doing fairly well we thought about this show and how it could possibly help. Especially with advertising and technology. I hope that if Dell would have another contest again to catch it in time or if there's a place where A&E has on their website to find out more how to get WMB in our neck of the woods. Keep up the awesome work!!!

AETV Team:
This show is absolutely incredible! However there are two HUGE things that I need answers to:
1. How in the heck do we signup to participate? That is, I have a friend who has run a business for many years now and he's got problems. I would LOVE for him to have a chance at being on this show but I can't find anywhere to send in a story or anything to get him selected as a business. How can I do that?
2. Follow-up?? Every show I watch I see all the things that have changed and what the team has done. But I want PROOF that it's really helped.
Anybody can go in, clean up a store, and then invite people over to have a dog show, or bake-off, or what-have-you. I want to see a six month follow-up to the changes and see just what effect the team had "long" term. Can you start doing that?
Keep up the great work everyone! I wish you many more seasons!
