November Networking Event

 Developing your Business Network and Networking Skills

No Matter what stage of business you are at, you never outgrow the need to network

  • Do you let people know clearly what type of business you are in?
  • Can they talk about you and describe accurately that you do and how you can help other people?
  • Do you let people know what types of problems you solve in your business, so that they can refer the right types of contacts to you?
  • Do you ask for referrals? 
  • When you need something in your business (or personally) do you know who to call?
  • After a networking event, do you re-connect with any of your new contacts?

The evening is about using your network more effectively, identifying the gaps in your personal network of contacts and making new contacts.

Remember, that there may not be potential clients in the room, but it is a lot broader than that, in fact you do not know who you are talking to and who they are connected to – most people know 250 people – who are connected to 250 people – who are connected to 250 people and so on!

  • One referral generates 80% more results than a cold call
  • 70% of new business is gained through word of mouth
  • One simple contact can bear fruit for many years

Unless you ask you may not get, it is about building up your confidence to talk about what you do and what you are looking for!

Date:          Monday, 26th November, 2007

Venue:        Hotel Kilmore, Cavan

Time:                   7.30 – 9.00 p.m.

Skill is fine, genius is splendid, but the right contacts are more valuable than either.     Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

 We would greatly appreciate it if you could let us know if you are interested in attending – 049-4365581 or info@winireland.com

                                                Looking forward to meeting you on the 26th !!

REFLECTIONS- A little book of courage, hope and joy for those facing breast cancer !
I also wanted to let as many people know as possible about the fund raising Avon are currently doing to raise money for Breast Cancer, I have attached details of a little book of " Reflections" on sale at the minute for only €6.00 and all of the sale price goes to the charity. It means a lot to me personally because my own mother died at the age of 56 from Breast cancer. So if you know any body interested in buying this beautiful little book in our current brochure please let me know.

 October is "Pink" month to raise awareness for Breast Cancer and if anybody is interested in hosting a girlie evening or morning to make the pages with photographs to capture a special moment, with guests giving a small donation towards the charity, it could be a great way to network amongst yourselves and give a little to charity at the same time.

Presentation By  Billy Dixon

The WIN Ireland Autumn/ Winter schedule was kicked off in fine style with a night that saw the Cavan, Monaghan and Leitrim networks come together with guest speaker Billy Dixon from Mind Associates.  Billy is a motivational and inspirational speaker who can instil confidence and make you want to go out into the marketplace and shine.  He specialises in communication, media management confidence, team dynamics, leadership and body language.  It was agreed by all that the first meeting of our new season was an absolute joy!  It offered a host of nuggets of invaluable information and tips when it comes to body language, dressing appropriately and confidence building to mention but a few, with lots of fun and laughter throughout.  Some comments from our members on the night included ' truly inspirational', 'Left me feeling full of motivation to put my dreams into action', 'Has given me confidence to face challenges'.  Here's looking forward to our next network meeting!
