“No business could ever succeed without fully understanding what one has to go through. And only through a very supportive and highly-experienced individual can help an aspiring entrepreneur become truly successful.I would say that GMB Management Services provides every aspiring entrepreneur the right tools in preparing themselves with the real world of business. Sir Butz exudes such positivity that easily encourages his mentees to become the best that they can be! Keep it up GMB!"

This is how i think whenever Sir Butz shares something, the “ah’s” or “I see!” gets to my mind suddenly.With his wealth of experience, he can speak with utter confidence and authority. More than anything else, you can feel his sincerity in building your confidence to succeed. It feels safe when you know he is there.”

“In Generika, we collectively has considerable business experience in many industries, but little knowledge and exposure to the intricacies of franchising. This crucial gap was largely filled after consultations and walks with Butz Bartolome and GMB.”
Ted Ferrer
Chairman, GENERIKA DRUGSTORE
“GMB has been the heart & soul of our Franchise Program. For more than a decade now they have the foundation of our franchise system.”
Richie Chua
President, Fiorgelato
“GMB has been pivotal in our international expansion. Their wealth of experience in international franchise coupled that with the “GMB way” they handle their clients in truly priceless. And to me the “GMB way” is all about 1) taking care of the its clients as if it was their own business that they were handling, 2) treating their clients like family, 3) doing anything the client wants no matter absurd the idea or plan may sound and 4) paying close attention to all details. Just this afternoon during mu meeting with a family who was looking to get the franchise for Toronto, Canada, I told them how blessed and what Lyndah and Butz is doing for our company and Potato Corner and told them “Kulang na lang partner na sila talaga ng Potato Corner”.
Jose Magsaysay
Director, Potato Corner
Our success can be attributed to GMB’s support. Without encouragement from GMB, we would not have done into franchising – which provide that is was the best way to expand.
