This isn't a "hand over your BUSINESS CARD AND ASK PEOPLE TO BUY YOUR
STUFF" kind of networking EVENT. Leave that mindset at home. You read
that correctly. No business cards are permitted at this networking
event.
WHY? Because we want you to have real conversations and get real
value. Not use your business card as a crutch to feel like you
accomplished something.
SO WHAT SHOULD YOU BRING?
(1) A BUSINESS PROBLEM THAT YOUR NEED A RESOURCE OR TWO FOR. Write it
down. On a piece of paper. Or your hand. Don't care. But bring a
PROBLEM that you need to SOLVE. or a give us an idea about a BUSINESS
RESOURCE you need.
(2) A LIST OF TYPES OF PROFESSIONALS WHO SERVICE YOUR TARGET MARKET IN
A COMPLEMENTARY WAY. These are the people we are going to help you
meet at the event.
(3) A GUEST! Because BOGO!
SO WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN AT THE EVENT?
We're going to get the business relationship building started with a
Problem Wall. Remember that business problem we told you to bring?
You're gonna get a little vulnerable and post that up on our problem
wall for everyone to see....and someone is going to be there to help
you out, so you'll leave with:
* At least TWO great connections (one helping you and one that you're
helping!)
* A clear reason to continue a business relationship with them
(because, like, they're gonna help you)
* A better understanding of how networking should ACTUALLY work.
* An opportunity to stay in touch with everyone present AND help you
with your expert positioning!
WHY? IS THIS SOME GIMMICK?
Nope. It's just our way to weed out the people who don't actually want
to build business relationships AND give you more than enough reason
to add value to and help each other AFTER the event.
SO HOW DO I CONNECT WITH PEOPLE AFTERWARD, IF I DON'T HAVE THEIR
BUSINESS CARD?
Well, there's this thing called Linkedin.....and also, if someone can
help you with your problem, they will say so and you can whip out your
phone and schedule a call RIGHT THERE! (Great idea, right? Ashley of
Ashley Assists is full of 'em! She'll be there! Definitely connect
with her!)
WHO SHOULD COME?

professionals. No salespeople, please. We love you guys, but this
one's just for business owners.
