Before joining Fresh Networking
“Previously for me networking was just me. It didn’t really exist for me. I knew that there was a whole world of networking groups out there, but for me it was about leveraging the contacts that I had built over the years and using those people to build my business.”
What Nicole loves about Fresh Networking
“It’s fresh, just like the name suggests. I love the fact that it’s not stuffy and rigid, yet we know how to be serious and professional. It’s about developing deeper relationships at a one on one level. I love hearing the back stories as it helps me understand them better and as a result you want to refer work to them.”
How Fresh Networking has grown Nicole’s business
“The first year I started to get some business in and I started to refer, however that wasn’t the core reason I joined Fresh. The second year I saw a real uplift in both what I was able to refer and have referred to me. And in the third year, the referrals grew exponentially. And now roughly 25% of my business is attributable directly from Fresh Hubs and connections made with Fresh members.”
Top 3 ways Fresh Networking has grown Nicole’s business
Number 1
“Is the meaningful connections I have made within my industry.”
Number 2
“Is opening my mind to new ways of doing business. Sometimes you need external help.”
Number 3
“Is having access to what I call my silent business partners who are going through the same challenges in business as I am.”
Why Nicole recommends Fresh Networking
“Where else can you find a dozen or more silent business partners that you don’t have to profit share with! The worst thing that can happen is that you’ll have a great breakfast, have lots of fun and be introduced to a dozen or so new contacts.”
