BRE breakfast meetings tend to be lively, fun and
relaxed – something to look forward to at this early
hour!
Yet business gets done!
By meeting every week and networking, Members develop
strong relationships that lead to the
trust
needed to feel comfortable referring business to each
other.
At each meeting, every Member will present a different
aspect of their business. Over time, Members develop a
strong
understanding
of each other’s needs and are able to recognise
opportunities to refer to each other
This can result in referrals and new business
opportunities for all the members of the Groups
– it is like having an extended team selling your
products and services on the market place!
How Much Does it Cost?
In addition to the cost of
Membership,
each member pays a meeting fee to cover the venue costs.
This varies from venue to venue and includes a
continental or full English breakfast. This is normally
payable by monthly standing order to the Group’s own
bank account.
