ast week or so, I've been to several networking events.Let me give you the contrast.
At one, I was welcomed, chatted up and general made to feel like it wa
s a great thing that I graced everyone with my presence.At another one, I signed my name at a personless table and that was it. No one welcomed me. Each was too busy conversing with someone they knew.
We've all done it. Friends are usually a lot more fun to talk to than unknown people.
What does your group do to make visitors feel welcome AND want to come back.
Do you have certain people who are there to be the link to the rest of the group?
Does your group view an outsider as an OUTSIDER, or do they see an opportunity?
Think about it.
In my opinion three groups that have done a wonderful job recently are WEN (The Women's Entrepreneurial Network), BNI and GreaterFindlayInc's morning Fresh Brewed event.
Tell us about yours.
