Speaker Slots

There is a great opportunity when becoming a member of The Business Community, you get the chance to book a 10-minute presentation slot at any of the business networking meetings. The only criteria is that it needs to be educational, not a sales pitch for your business - an ideal way to raise your profile within The Business Community and "show off" your knowledge and experience.

It doesn't have to be a Powerpoint presentation, screens/projectors and flipcharts are available at most venues or you could just orate without the use of either!

Tips for your presentation

  • Share your knowledge/skill/advice
  • If using slides – suggest no more than 10 (sometimes just standing up and presenting; maybe with a flipchart – can work better)
  • No need to cover more than 5-7 points
  • Allow some time for questions
  • Consider handouts for delegates (at least in electronic format)
  • Promote your presentation to people in your network so they can attend the meeting your at; in doing so raising your profile

<p><strong>Friendly atmosphere</strong> - 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. <strong>Good structure to the meetings</strong> - they are <strong>not too formal or overly casual</strong> 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 <strong>always come away having learnt something useful</strong>.</p>

<p>The Business Community is so <strong>much more than just a networking group</strong>, while the networking meetings are <strong>energising and fun</strong>, you get <strong>genuine community and support</strong> that I haven't experienced anywhere else. It's also <strong>brilliant value for money</strong>, reasonably price with <strong>extras that are very generous</strong>. I'd highly recommend.</p>
