Peter Arundel

Peter has over 25 years of executive level experience in finance, strategic planning, sales and marketing, manufacturing and mergers and acquisitions. He built Virginia News Group, a major multimedia firm with 112 employees and properties throughout the Washington, DC metropolitan area. He successfully sold the company to a national media company in 2018.

Throughout his career, Peter gained knowledge of a diverse line of businesses, such as retail, service based companies and non-profits. These businesses share common principles of management and Peter likes to apply the TAB peer advisory process to solve business owners’ most important challenges and develop new opportunities.

An exceptional problem solver, Peter works with business owners to help them become more profitable and build a team that can run the business for them so they can reclaim time for themselves.

A graduate of Duke University and member of Young President’s Organization (YPO), Peter loves to read, ride bikes and horses and look for his golf ball.

As a TAB member, through the regular coaching sessions and monthly Board meetings, I gain invaluable mentor and peer support. The TAB ethos and coaching approach has helped me to plan personal and business goals and set direction. This is supported by the wealth of knowledge, skills, experience and support that is shared by the board who provide Impartial, informed and considered guidance and advice on all types of business issues, that enable me to gain fresh perspectives, identify blind spots and fill my skill gaps. Over the last twelve months TAB has effectively become my company’s non-executive board and its members my trusted colleagues.

There is no silver bullet to becoming successful, you just have to stay focused on your goals. TAB has helped my business grow significantly by encouraging me to take a step back and identify the basics I need.

TAB helped me to focus on the things that have made my business scalable. I was tempted to divert my attention to another endeavor, but TAB helped me determine that was not prudent. The economy, and specifically new building starts, have helped, but the degree of capitalization would not have been possible were it not for TAB. I compare my situation with another franchise owner who was in my shoes several years ago and I am way ahead, in fact we just bought him out. My revenues have doubled, and my capacity has increased four times from what it was three years ago. I have time to be with my girls, work on my hobbies and enjoy life.

I find that the sharing of ideas and problem solving in others businesses helps me think creatively about my own business. Stepping outside of my day to day work helps me look at the bigger picture and focus on short and long term goals.

We have an excellent group of professional business owners. I learn something from them each month. Hearing and seeing what they are doing in their business is motivational for me. And they are not "yes" people. They tell me when I should be doing something differently.
