Why Choose BDC?

As a business owner, you already know that Columbia is saturated with business networking groups. There’s a lot of noise out there, so how do you choose which direction to take your business in? 

SCBDC is different from other business networking groups in Columbia SC in that our members of this group have longevity. We’ve been here for a long time, and we’re not going anywhere. 

While we are not registered as “non-profit” however, all membership dues go to pay for meeting space etc and anything left at end of year is donated to the Special Olympics South Carolina.  We helped raise over $30,000 in just 2020 for the Special Olympics.  There is no “owner” of a franchise that is making $$$ by trying to fill as many spots as possible.  We are selective of new members based on compatibility and desire to give back to other businesses and our community here in Columbia SC.

We’ve built a community of like minded local business owners that’s grounded in trust, support, and fun. We’re serious about our businesses but also about building something bigger than ourselves and bigger than our individual businesses.

We join forces with all kinds of local businesses here in Columbia SC, bringing a myriad of styles, industries, personalities, and service offerings. We take pride in learning about one and another’s businesses and then referring others to them. The trusted relationships that we build will serve you and your business for years to come.

Come see what we can we do for you and your business.

We Respect Your Business and Your Time

We’re all business owners who are juggling a lot. We understand the time constraints that can accompany business ownership which is why we don’t waste any of it.

Our meetings are fast-paced and structured to allow us to accomplish a lot while also respecting our members’ valuable time. Each week, we’ll meet and things will move along quickly and efficiently.

We’ll pass referrals, listen to a BCD success story, gain knowledge for an educational segment, and engage in a Brainsparking session where all of our members take some time to help one another with questions about his or her business. We also invite local dignitaries and special guests to come to speak to our members about important small business matters. 

We offer an action-packed business networking group each week that will leave you feeling ready to tackle another week of doing business. We get you in and out so that you can get back to what matters most, building your business, and supporting your family.
