Let me ask you:
What's the FASTEST Way to
Grow Your Business in a Recession?
Obvious Answer:
Network with Like Minded Individuals!
So, imagine what you could do this coming year
if you were in a room with NOT 100, NOT 300, BUT 500 or more
Entrepreneurs, Business Owners, Sales Professionals, Students, Government Representatives, and Not-for Profit Administrators?
ALL who are in the same place, at the same time,
on the same day...with the same goal!?
Networking is an essential piece to a successful business and life. We always do business with people we know, like and trust. That’s what networking is all about - building quality relationships for the purpose of helping each other become more successful (whether its money or lifestyle).
Well, if that's the case, and it is, wouldn’t it make sense to learn more about how to network the most effective way possible? And wouldn’t it make even more sense to learn it in a setting where you can apply it on the spot!?
You bet! And that, my friend, is what International Networking Day is all about.
So just what is the International Networking Day™?
International Networking Day™ (Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010) is an initiative of BNI. The day will be the cornerstone to the development of International Networking Week™
(February 1st – 5th, 2010 ) – a larger initiative dedicated to featuring various networking events; both nationally and internationally.
The goal of International Networking Day and Week™ is to celebrate the key role that networking plays in the development and success of businesses across the world and to bring together organizations and people that may not typically have the opportunity to network together.
While BNI of Western Pennsylvania is hosting the International Networking Day™ Event, it is important to point out that this event is not a “BNI Event.”
Invitations to attend are open to the wider business community, members of other networking organizations, students, press representatives, and interested parties from all levels of government and business.
The Fourth Annual International Networking Day™ Event will be celebrated on February 2nd, 2010 with huge networking events taking place all over the world.
Here in Pittsburgh our celebration will take place at the Radisson in Greentree featuring Networking Guru, Debby Peters, talk on:
| Turning Networking Dating Into Networking Dollars |
...where you'll learn:
- How to climb off the gerbil networking wheel and
stop wasting your time
- How to become aware of your networking efforts
and why your networking may not be working
- How to turn coffee meetings into profitable business
meetings fast and forever!
On top of all this...why else should you be there?
Here’s a list of even more reasons you should attend the International Networking Day™ Event this coming year:
- Networking with professionals from OUTSIDE your industry
and daily grind to find untapped resources that can lead to
BIG opportunities!
- Finding the vendors and other resources you need to make
2010 your best year ever
- Learning from some the best networkers in the business...
both OFFLINE and ONLINE...and how they profit from using
both types of networks!
- Having fun with good friends, while making NEW friends
to expand your network now and for years to come
- And, of course, much more!
And if that's not enough, look what's...
