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

Having just started networking I realise what great opportunities there are in the local area and get to meet some very interesting people and businesses.

I'm very positive that given time the fruits of my effort will pay off, so keeping my fingers crossed.

In any case, The Business Community is a very welcoming environment and not the stuffy corporate atmosphere I used to in my past life.
