The Tauranga Business Network

About

We are a local group for business owners building their businesses with new strategies, on-line marketing assistance and fortnightly networking meetings.

Story

Why Join Us?

Our purpose is to bring Business Owners together in person every couple of weeks to connect, Learn, Share, and Solve $20,000 Business Issues. This provides plenty of new opportunities to build relationships and do business together. The key outcomes that we help members achieve are...

1. Better Connections
2. New Ideas and Insights
3. Improving business Performance and Profitability

The Tauranga Business Network isn't normal networking... many of our members have commented that some of the networking they'd done in the past felt a bit like "speed dating for business owners!". If you've done networking before then you'll know that this isn't a great way to build long term relationships. Poorly structured networking can lead to a "box full of business cards but no relationships". We don't want that to happen to you!

Here's what Business Owners are saying about why they joined:

- to get better connected,
- to get new ideas about what others are doing to survive and thrive in my business
- to get new perspectives on what you're currently doing in my business
- to improve my word-of-mouth marketing
- to gain referrals
- to meet like-minded business owners
- to get out of the office
- to make sales
- to find good suppliers
- to create new opportunities.

NETWORKING MEETING FORMATS

ShowRoom is a Networking Meeting to get better connections between you and other local business owners. Better connections means more Word-of-Mouth Marketing and more referrals from business owners who will all be spotting work for you!

BoardRoom is a Mastermind Meeting to generate new ideas and insights for you and your business. Members work together to help each other with their challenges and what’s working, so that you can get your business ahead!

ClassRoom Meetings are Business education workshops with the focus on helping you become more profitable. You’ll get a workbook on a key topic and learn the best strategies and an action plan to implement!

Who Attends The Network Meetings?

They're for Business Owners... the people that make the key decisions in their business. This ensures that every person you meet, every connection, is valuable. Whether you're providing products or services to each other, creating opportunities together, or sharing business ideas... there's unlimited opportunity to tap into the people in the room to help you grow your business.

How It Works...

The Group meets every second Thursday 9:30am - 11:00am. The meetings alternate between Showroom, Boardroom and Classroom. This way you are well connected with a range of members across the group.
