Conrad K, Blackbird Business Solutions
Small Business Connect is an amazing group to be a part of. Unlike other networking groups which are filled with sales people and employees, SBC connects me with other small business owners like myself. Part Master-Mind, Part Referral Network, this group fuels my business by providing essential referrals and the training I need to grow.
Jared G, Intrepitek
SBC is such an amazing group to be a part of. I can't help but look forward to every Friday to meet with them. They're focused on local small businesses, which leads to more relationship building and trainings and less on going in looking for referrals. Every week we leave with some new knowledge, a stronger bond, and still have some fun and laughs during the hour to remind us we can be entrepreneurs and still enjoy the little things when we get together.
Josh S, Elevate Consulting
SBC genuinely feels different to me. I have been in so many networking groups. The energy, the people, and the referrals are a whole different level. This is one of the few groups I'm excited to attend every week. I leave feeling energized and prepared to build my business.
The Small Business Connect Success Recipe:
CONNECT - Getting to know each other builds better referrals. We're more likely to refer and do business with people we know and trust.
COLLABORATE - Collaboration is a catalyst for synergy. When we work together the total is greater than the sum of the parts.
BE PRESENT - By showing up and being present, we're showing others that we care and that we’re committed to each other’s growth.
BE GIVING - We've all got something to give, be it time, money, help, or referrals. We’re here to support each other.
BE REAL - We’re authentic here, we embrace genuine thoughts, emotions, and experiences in learning and growing together.
