Weekly Works. It's that simple. The most effective networking groups worldwide are held weekly. There are a number of groups around now that meet fortnightly but if you miss one meeting you end up not seeing the group for about a month...
We charge an annual fee of $365 (inc GST) plus a once off $69 joining fee. This includes membership to our local group, upon acceptance of course.
Our meetings are at different times of the day. Some are mornings and some are over lunch so we do ask that you pay any associated meeting costs with whatever group you decide to join.
Examples would be paying for your lunch at a lunch time group or maybe $10 for coffee and cake at a mid-morning group but you would always be advised of these costs prior to submitting your application form.
You can find our Membership Application form here.
Our most up to date Terms and Conditions are at the bottom of our Membership Application form. We are sure you will find them very reasonable.
We meet weekly with the idea of trying to contribute to the group. That could be in the form of advice for others, bringing visitors along to show them some of the great businesses you think could help them or it might be a referral to one of the businesses when the opportunity arises.
No but we do ask that you attend most of our meetings. We have an expectation that our members attend 80% of our meetings. We do understand that things happen (with kids, staff etc)...
You can send someone in your place from your business, (a friend or family) member to talk about what you do. It's actually a great way to show them what the group can offer but also helps others in the group identify more with you.
Having someone else there on your behalf also means that your services are mentioned in front of potential visitors as you never know who else is there on the day.
Yes you can. We do have an administration fee equal to our joining fee to move from one group to another, and to be honest we don't encourage people to move groups but we appreciate that some people may need to move for various reasons.
Any person selling a reputable product or service is welcome to join the group, we do however ask the MLM (Multi Level Marketing) opportunities are not made within the groups.
Products or services are fine but our members are not there to be 'business opportunities' as they have joined to promote their existing businesses.
