Promotion On Social Media
As part of your membership, you will promoted across The Business Community's various social media channels - raising your profile, increasing your exposure and potentially generating referrals.
This will be heightened if you offer to be a speaker, mentor, expert, group leader or end up running a workshop - as there will be extra exposure for you.
Current outlets and numbers:
- LinkedIn (nearly 2000 local connections)
- Facebook (1000+ connections)
- Twitter (3000+ followers)
- Instagram (350+ followers)
This is a small enough networking group to feel like a community but big enough to have a good variety of different business types and sizes. Love the meeting structure (with a difference) which gives the chance to discuss as a whole group and share ideas rather than just speaking to the people sitting next to you. Can't recommend it more highly to anyone running their own business.

Friendly atmosphere - people don't take themselves too seriously, there are laughs and jokes mixed in with a genuine sense that everybody is looking out for each other. Good structure to the meetings - they are not too formal or overly casual and a great place to pick up tips (not always business-related). Free courses for members - I have been on several courses put on by other members and always come away having learnt something useful.

Thank you Paul for allowing me to be part of BusComm, I always look forward to the meetings, they are very friendly and helpful and there always seems to be a really good supply of support and advice if we need it! I have been a member now for several months and find it an excellent networking group for referrals and future business!

I have been a member of The Business Community for a number of years now. The unique mix of friendly banter with professional format and resources has been invaluable for my own business growth. I have made friendships, referred people and grown my client base thanks to The Business Community. I like there is no lockout, the meetings are a manageable size and no yearly contract.
