Here are some comments from the event survey’s we do after each lunch.
Good range of businesses with differing issues and skills in Service based business.
Open conversations and genuine desire to help
Relaxed friendly meeting
Low key, not a hard-sell like BNI
Meeting new people and time allocation was reasonable
Its open about networking with card swapping and that takes the guess work out of manoeuvring around a room like other network events.
Ability to meet people outside of IT and learn many things about those area’s
Meeting new people
It was relaxed and informal, and there was plenty of time to chat
The informal discussions and meeting people who I would not ordinarily get the chance to meet in other forums
Good to meet people who are from different areas which makes for interesting discussions.
Great company, a great excuse to take a break on a Friday and make new contacts
Networking and idea sharing
friendly people and great food
Sat there thinking about whether it was worth it, when the fellow next to me made an initial enquiry about a project. All of a sudden, it was worth it!
Talking with diverse but essentially like minded people
I search such a group to be able to grow my business NZ wide, I am a bookkeeper working from home offering bookkeeping and payroll services working with MYOB products and Xero for which I am a certified adviser, I am a partner of crystal payroll, smart payroll, Flexitime payroll, ace payroll…
While I am working from home it is not easy to find people to connect with, and while I am French and my English is not necessary the best, may look like a barrier, but I am working on side of renowned Kiwi Accountants which is a plus for me.
Till now I did find some “Year End” customers, but I expect from such a group help to find more regularly customers on every day basic, maybe someone in need of a bookkeeper for few hours a week, or a month, this will be a good start…
I will definitively come tomorrow on Friday at the Wellington group. http://www.eyminsaccounts.co.nz
