11th January – Exeter Business Network
Business Seminar PhotoReading – the turbocharger for your mind
Imagine being able to absorb material at lightning speed and be able to recall what you’ve read – “I can easily read a 300 page reference manual in 2.5 hrs, and retain around 60% of the content”
Having sorted your work life, then think about how you can use this amazing skill for your personal life too – “My golf handicap has gone down from 13.3 to 9.5 since PhotoReading and I have won a number of club medals and trophies too”
And don’t forget yourself! Do you want to feel more relaxed, confident, calm or motivated? – “I have been using my PhotoReading skills daily and have experienced a greater sense of confidence”
Hosted by Clare Whiston of Knowledge Gateway
Speaker – Andy McCreadie of Sandler Training
18th January – Bristol Business Network
Mercure Holland House Hotel & Spa
Business Seminar – Making the most of exhibitions
The Centre for Exhibition Industry Research (CEIR) says that “the top reason for exhibitors to take part is that it is the most efficient (and cost effective) way to make multiple customer contacts in a short period of time”
“In fact, the majority of visitors – 57% – are planning purchases in the next 12 months. 83% of visitors have buying influence and 37% of attendees with buying influence have the final say in the purchasing decision”
This doesn’t start on the day, but looking at the reasons why you are there, setting objectives and goals and then embarking on the journey; starting with the PR in the run up to the show; engaging with prospects to invite them to the stand and then what to do on the day, how to get people on the stand and make you stand out from the crowd
Come along to this seminar and see how you can get the most from your Exhibitions this year – 2012. Hosted by Sara Lewis – Ascent PR
Speaker – Jill Green – The Referral Institute
25th January – Taunton Business Network
Business Seminar – you’ve had turbo charging – now it’s super charging your networking
The ability to network is one of the most crucial skills any business person can have. How else will you meet the clients and contacts necessary to grow your business? But many people are put off by the idea of networking thinking it requires a phony, glad-handing personality that oozes insincerity. Nothing could be farther from the truth!
Many business people contend business networking is a more cost-effective method of generating new business than advertising or public relations efforts. This is because business networking is a low-cost activity that involves more personal commitment than company money
This interactive seminar will share the secrets to successful networking that will supercharge your business
Hosted by Sean Humby – Director of Business Network (SW) Ltd – having set up and run his own training company and developed the business through networking bought Business Network SW – a Victor Kiam story! With over 150 attending events each month across the SW he has a wealth of experience, tips and knowledge that will enable you to develop more opportunities for you and your business.
