For this special event Antidote are inviting you to join us for some fun and experience ‘Speednetworking’ – we ran this event earlier this year and had excellent feedback with lots of you asking for it again!!
Speednetworking is a great way to meet and connect with lots of people, tell them about what you do, what you are looking for and have some real fun. It’s fast- paced, a great way to connect with lots of people and brilliant way of tuning up your networking skills. Remember to bring lots of business cards! At all of our speednetworking events we’ve managed to help those who participated to meet at least 12 people on a one-to-one basis and get them talking about how they could help each other in depth. Not only that when food is served you will have the opportunity to relax or continue to network and make even more contacts!
If you’ve not tried it before this is how it works:-
Come armed with your ‘elevator pitch’ – a brief introduction of who you are, what your business service/product is all about and (most importantly) what you are looking for (e.g. more customers, recommendations, affinity partners, new suppliers, funding, support, etc.). You then have a chance to spend no more than 5 minutes with each new delegate and exchange this information. Not surprisingly you wont be able to speak with everyone in the room but certainly make lots of new contacts.
When the whistle blows it’s time to move on, once you’ve grabbed contact details from each other of course! This type of networking is a great way to ‘connect’ with more people and just find out what’s happening on the local business scene. It will also help you build confidence and practice the best way to deliver what you’re all about. You’ll pick up tips from the more seasoned networkers as well and see how they do it.
It also great for another reason – you only get about five minutes with each contact, so no getting stuck with someone for hours while trying to think of a polite way to move on!!!
Most of all it’s great FUN! The last time we ran this event we thought we were going to need to call the Fire Brigade to break up the party!!
We’d love you to join us on the Wednesday 19th and help you increase your business contacts as the end of the year approaches. Please do also invite business friends, colleagues and associates to join us, especially if they’ve not yet experienced the Antidote – we’d like to make this event a big success for everyone.
As always seats are limited and as regular Antidote members know our events that focus on marketing are frequently oversubscribed.
