Maryland businesswoman Dee Bowden defies toughest odds with startup of BCS Solutions

Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us. (Ephesians 3:20 KJV)

 CASH FLOW SOLUTION

GOD’S PLAN — A credible business that accommodates different age groups — most notably individuals ranging in the age bracket of 45-and-up — Dee Bowden’s BCS Solutions emerged amid her tenure for Amherst Technologies Merrimack New Hampshire, a small IT company, during which she worked as a part-time collections clerk.

For Dee Bowden, 2016 essentially proved to be a defining moment, of sorts, in her tenure as a rising businesswoman.

That was, in fact, the year during which Bowden, an accomplished revenue recovery consultant, was recognized by the United States Coast Guard Headquarters for having recovered $7.5 million in a span of just one year.

For what it’s worth, such a feat, by all accounts, is what has fueled Bowden’s fervent desire to establish BCS Solutions, her Frederick, Maryland-based company that’s centered largely recovering what Bowden refers to as “old and owed” money.

“I enjoy speaking about the subject of cash flow and its impact on one’s business, positively or negatively,” Bowden, 57 told Making Headline News this week. “I love seeing how God gave me an idea to share the message, ‘How Secure Is Your Cash Flow.’”

As Bowden explained, she recalls just how it all unfolded, a development she sensed was the prelude to a banner career, courtesy of her business-related heroics that caught the attention of the United States Coast Guard.

“They had $8 million in sales on the books, but not in the bank,” Bowden recalled. “I was assigned those accounts to collect the past due receivables.”

IN GOOD COMPANY — As Bowden explained, she recalls just how it all unfolded, a development she sensed was the prelude to a banner career, courtesy of her business-related heroics that caught the attention of the United States Coast Guard.

Then much to the delight of this resilient and resourceful businesswoman, the unthinkable had ultimately transpired.

“I successfully collected $6 million in 60 days working part time,” — Maryland Businesswoman Dee Bowden

As Bowden explained, it wasn’t longer thereafter that what seemed to be a much-needed turning point for a small IT company had eventually turned into an unlikely dead end.

“As phenomenal as that was, two months before Christmas, the CEO called us all together and said the following: ‘Thanks so much for all of the hard work. Unfortunately we have made a business decision to close down Amherst Technologies, and you have 30 minutes to grab your things and leave.”

For Bowden, such a shocking, tear-jerking development seemed difficult to stomach, this after she helped propelled the company to a much-needed breakthrough.

“It was a devastating time to go through,” she said. “It taught me a valuable lesson as a future business owner…to make sure you know the state of your flocks…sales, contracts, invoices and receivables. No business will last long without sales, contracts, accounts payable, and accounts receivables.”

A little more than three years removed from such a downtrodden turn of events, Bowden essentially has captured a new lease on life as the face of BCS Solutions, a company that is making a strong case to emerge as a national fixture much sooner than later.

DID YOU KNOW…

Amongst the reasons is that Bowden’s company has given way to an array of golden opportunities, which included her having served as a (virtual speaker) at Success Women’s Conference 2018, an event that included appearances by Robin Roberts of ABC’s Good Morning America and Lisa Nichols and the Millionairess Conference held by Dr. Jewel Tankard in 2019. 

In addition, Dee has been a featured guest on several podcasts and radio shows such as Life Transformation Radio and the Swift Kick Radio Show.

Interesting the startup of her business allowed her to take part in Women Future Conference 2018.

A receivables management stint that spans more than a decade, Bowden also is crafty and gifted author, whose anthology entitled, “Entrepreneurial Elevation: 30 Lessons To Improve Your Impact Influence and Income,” is just days away from its release.

 

“My personal mission for doing this work is to share the message and change the conversation around collections and cash flow and revenue in one’s business,” Bowden, a native of Boston, said. “I know from personal experience that getting paid on time for your products or services is very important. I do this work, because I don’t want to see another IT or software or other company close its doors due to lack of cash flow management.”

A receivables management stint that spans more than a decade, Bowden also is crafty and gifted author, whose anthology entitled, “Entrepreneurial Elevation: 30 Lessons To Improve Your Impact Influence and Income,” is just days away from its release.

The book launch date is scheduled for July 20, Bowden announced.

“It is imperative that I esteem and encourage others daily, because those gifts were given to me as I decided to pursue this venture,” said Bowden, adding that Ephesians 3:20 is her anchor scripture. “I would not be sharing this story with others if I had not been encouraged along the way. Life and death are in the power of the tongue. It is important to speak life-affirming words over yourself and those in your circles of influence.

“I also believe that gratitude expressed often changes things. I am grateful to God for His favor in my life.”

The kind of favor that, like her successful entrepreneurship tenure, is a defining moment, of sorts, for this, a rising and progressive businesswoman.

Boston preacher Bishop Ronald S. Hobson, Sr. advancing the kingdom mightily as leader of The Reconstruction Church

Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. (1 Timothy 5:17 KJV)

DALLAS — Just a few days ago, Dr. Ronald S Hobson, Sr. found himself reminiscing, among other things, about how his family had gone about making peace with Jesus Christ.

Without question, it was arguably the best discovery of his young life.

As Dr. Hobson — a Boston-area pastor who’s widely known as Bishop Hobson — explained, it all unfolded sometime after the tragic death of grandmother, during which his family consequently attended the historic Jefferson Temple Church of God In Christ in nearby North Bellport, New York.
Ironically, Bishop Hobson’s mother, Geraldine Scott, had accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior, thus setting off what apparently was a spiritual domino effect throughout the Hobson household.

ON GOD’S BATTLEFIELD 

GOD’S MIGHTY SPOKESPERSON — A ministerial calling that spans approximately three decades, Ronald S. Hobson is the Senior Pastor at The Reconstruction Church.

“It was after she accepted Christ that our journey as a family into the Christian faith began,” Bishop Hobson told Making Headline News this week.

For Bishop Hobson, witnessing his mother surrender to God proved to be defining moment, of sorts, for an accomplished preacher, whose keen reputation is such that he customarily exemplifies having a heart for people.

God’s people, to be more direct.

A ministerial calling that spans approximately three decades, Bishop Hobson is the Senior Pastor at The Reconstruction Church.

MORE ON TRC: https://thereconstructionchurch.org/

Located at 80 Pleasant Street in Brockton, Massachusetts, The Reconstruction Church has adopted a notable commitment that is centered largely on serving its community through various programs, many of which are geared toward people’s spiritual needs.

“We are not hear to judge, but to help you change the way you think about your faith,” said a spokesperson for The Reconstruction Church in a detailed introduction of this flourishing ministry at https://thereconstructionchurch.org/.

A native of North Bellport, New York — a rural town of roughly 11,545 residents, according to the latest U.S. census — it’s safe to assume that Bishop Hobson, 48, undoubtedly was birthed into ministry.

He’s also is a thriving businessman as a credible credit repair specialist.

Having always looked up to and admired his pastor, Bishop Ralph L. Jefferson — “I still admire him today,” he often says — it was due in large part to his spiritual father’s unorthodox style of preaching, coupled with what Bishop Hobson describes as his “tenacity in preaching The Word” that greatly fueled his desire to want to follow in his footsteps.

PROMOTED BY GOD — Dr. Hobson was consecrated in December 2003 to the Office of Bishopric through the laying on of hands of His Eminence W. O. Kinnings in nearby Philadelphia before being reaffirmed and dually consecrated to the Office of Bishopric and Presiding Prelate of Preachers United Fellowship in August 2006 by the Episcopal Board of Bishops of Alpha & Omega Ministries, Bishop Lee A. Davis (California).

Despite the notion that being raised with eight brothers and sisters were both “amazing and discouraging” at times, Bishop Hobson is especially appreciative of the fact this his mother had raised her children to the best way she knew how, though he acknowledged that growing up in what he deems “an improvised community” had its share of challenges.

“Like any other inner-city, I was introduced to many vises and avenues that were not ideal and economically friendly,” Bishop Hobson recalls. “I had to do what I had to do to survive.”

Regardless, amongst the notable factors with which this young preacher had come to grips was that only what he does for Christ will last. So realistically, there was no running from the calling and purpose for which he was created.

MOM KNOWS BEST — For Bishop Hobson, witnessing his mother surrender to God proved to be defining moment, of sorts, for an accomplished preacher whose keen reputation is such that he customarily exemplifies having a heart for people. God’s people, to be more direct.

“The amazing part of everything was that the church became my outlet and focus,” Bishop Hobson explained. “The more I attended, the more comfortable I grew to accept this Jesus my pastor so eloquently shared through his preaching and teachings. The church became my focal point for change. My pastor took the time to teach me all he could for me to become someone or something in life. He poured into me daily values and practices of clean, godly living. He wanted to ensure that I made godly decisions in life.”

All of which practically sums up why this young preacher from a rural town on Long Island has been set aside for God’s use, all the while steadily having a massive impact in advancing the kingdom for such a time as now.

Never mind that according to Bishop Hobson, the awe-inspiring events that had ultimately given way to his divine call to ministry weren’t merely easy, he often recalls.

A native of North Bellport, New York — a rural town of roughly 11,545 residents, according to the latest U.S. census, it’s safe to assume that Bishop Hobson, 48, undoubtedly was birthed into ministry.

“It was life-changing,” he typically says without hesitation.

Having officially accepted his calling to preach to gospel at the tender age of 18, this then-teenage preacher found himself standing behind a sacred desk, giving his first sermon in October 1988.

He’s been preaching ever since.

Bishop Hobson also is a thriving businessman as a credible credit repair specialist.

“Remembering the day when my pastor laid his hands on me, he shared with me a dream I had the night before,” Bishop Hobson recalled. “The Lord knew what He showed me in my dream, but my pastor’s prophetic discernment by The Spirit of God was led to share the dream. He said, ‘Son, God has called you to preach.’ After that, I hit the floor – slain in The Spirit.”

He’s been slain in The Spirit ever since.

He hasn’t looked back ever since.

Credit the fact that He’s been sold out to God ever since.

In no particularly order.

IT’S ALL GOOD — Despite the notion that being raised with eight brothers and sisters were both “amazing and discouraging” at times, Bishop Hobson is appreciative of the fact this his mother had raised her children to the best of her capabilities, though he acknowledged that growing up in what he deems “an improvised community” had its challenges. Pictured with Bishop Hobson are his sons, Ron, Jr. and Christopher.

Having become a licensed minister the same year he delivered his first sermon, Bishop Hobson was ordained and installed as a Pastor in October 2002 by Bishop Ralph L. Harmon, Milford, DE.

 

Bishop Hobson’s mother, Geraldine Scott, had accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior, thus setting off what apparently was a spiritual domino effect throughout the Hobson household.

Consequently, he was consecrated in December 2003 to the Office of Bishopric through the laying on of hands of His Eminence W. O. Kinnings in nearby Philadelphia before being reaffirmed and dually consecrated to the Office of Bishopric and Presiding Prelate of Preachers United Fellowship in August 2006 by the Episcopal Board of Bishops of Alpha & Omega Ministries, Bishop Lee A. Davis (California).

Having studied at Empire State College in Buffalo, New York, Bishop Hobson enrolled at the University of Phoenix, during which his concentration was Business Administration.  Having matriculated from Encouraging Faith Theological University with honors, Bishop Hobson is an accomplished author who wrote “Who’s Your Moses?”

KEEP ON KEEPIN’ ON — Having officially accepted his calling to preach to gospel at the tender age of 18, this then-teenage preacher found himself standing behind a sacred desk, giving his first sermon in October 1988.

“Accepting what God allowed was my new momentum and vision focus,” Bishop Hobson said of his well-publicized ministerial career. “I felt secure in knowing Chrissy was in the safest arms. I knew I had to continue to preach the Good News. I’ve learned that through the course of healing that I have to love and not hate…press to impress Christ and live the best life I could for Him, because tomorrow is not promised to anyone, not even me.”

All things considered, that, without question, was arguably the best discovering of his young life.
