The Business Network restricts attendees at lunches to a senior level in order to influence the amount of decisions actually made over the lunch period. Attendees can influence the buying & selling process of their organizations and are encouraged to "buy & sell within The Network" wherever possible.
There are always new companies in attendance at the monthly lunches, giving you an opportunity to promote your business to a regular stream of new potential clients.
There is the opportunity to be seated with specific businesses or people.
Perhaps there are people you would like to meet but you cannot get an appointment or even speak to them on the phone. Let us know and we can invite them to an event to meet other decision makers. If they book they can be on the same table as you!
Using our format to develop business relationships with other local companies provides access to a 'referral network', where fellow members are only too happy to mention your organisation to other companies they know; and naturally you will do the same for them.
There is a wealth of knowledge and experience within The Membership that is freely available to you. Try and ensure that you attend the Free Pre-Lunch Seminars offered by fellow Members on a wide variety of topics, and if you wish to increase the profile of your company further why not offer to host a seminar yourself? Full details here Seminars are free as part of the whole event.
Members Benefit
Take a free Stand at the monthly lunches and give both members and visitors an even greater insight into what your company can provide.
The art of "networking" is not always a natural and comfortable process for business people. There is plenty of support and advice available and Improving your Networking' seminars are run on a regular basis. Please feel free to download the Networking Tips. These I trust will be a useful tool for all your networking activities.

Within the format of the monthly events, The Business Network provides an excellent opportunity to cost effectively entertain corporate clients. Inviting a guest or taking a Corporate Table is a great way for your customers/suppliers to get to know you and your company, and for you to get to know them. And if you are launching a new product or service, The Business Network event provides an effective environment to "inform".
Continuous Membership over a long period of time ensures that members develop more and more productive, long term business relationships with other Members, and it's then that the all important 'referral networks' really become established.
