June Network Luncheon

Ever heard of Speed Dating?  Join us this Thursday, June 19th from 11:30-12:30 for "Speed Networking"!  If you have been following GBN very long you surely will be familiar with a "60-second commercial".  This is something every business owner needs to be able to quickly, and precisely get across to a potential client or strategic partner (someone who can refer business or help you manage your business better) who you are and what it is you do. 

So, get your 60 second commercial prepared and come share it with our group!  We will be meeting at Salara Bistro at Ballantyne Village.

Better Follow-Up Means More Sales

Unsure about networking and lack in follow-up skills?  Tyrone Turner, founder of Grassroots Business Network will take you through a ten step follow-up system for individuals you meet. 

Whether you meet them at networking events, while out to lunch, or in a transaction, these steps will assist you in making a lasting impression.  People need to not only know you, but like you, trust you, and have confidence in your competence when it comes to your product or service.  Watch this 8 minute video to learn just how you can incite this reaction in people you meet.

May Event Update

Thursday's meeting was filled with great information from Dr. Smith.  If you were not able to make it, you have another chance to meet him and learn more about his practice.  He will be hosting a "Client Appreciation Day" on Tuesday, June 3rd from 8 A.M to 8 P.M.  You can get a complimentary chair massage, snacks and 10% off supplements.  For more information visit his website at www.carolinasnaturalhealth.com
