What can you expect at a meeting?
We meet at 7.15 for tea, coffee or orange juice. At 7.30 we order our breakfast, either a standard full cooked breakfast or choosing from the Old Palace Lodge's varied breakfast menue. We introduce ourselves around the tables; 30 seconds each is ideal. We have our meal, pass our business cards and hear a short talk from our invited speaker. Our regular speakers are getting a very good reputation and their own 'following' in the local business community. They always try to give us business skills or information relevant to all sizes of business. We build trust that eventually leads to referrals by giving people an idea of HOW we work in our introductions. We do not do forced referrals and our clubs are for busy people who do not always have time to attend. You will meet a wide variety of types of local businesses. As there are no joining fees, why not come along and meet us?
Please note: Date Change from November 09 from the 3rd Wednesday of the month to the 3rd FRIDAY
