Eric Beckwith, CEO of Freightera Logistics, credits Colin Sprake's Business Sherpa program with helping him structure his company, secure funding, and build client relationships starting in early 2014. A three-day session focused the business, and ongoing classes and support proved essential.

Early 2014 (January or February 2014).
Hi, my name is Eric Beckwith, I'm the CEO of Freightera Logistics, based in Vancouver, British Columbia. We started working with Colin early in January or February of 2014 and we actually created this business that came out of a three day session with Colin in terms of goals and focus and we signed up for the program, the Business Sherpa program. It has been invaluable to us. I've been in business now for over 15 years, but this particular process, the unique combination of the classes, the social environment, the supportive business mindset, training has been invaluable to me as a seasoned business person in terms of getting this new company off the ground, in terms of structuring it so that we actually got funding, in terms of actual structuring the day to day activities so that we bring in the correct clients and fill the client pipeline and also the ongoing relationship, management and building with the other companies because we do business strictly business to business. So I highly recommend if you're starting a business or if you've been in business long term and you'd like the business to grow or to do better, to please come and check this out, make your own informed decision. But for me it's been extremely valuable.
