We completely understand that for some people, networking in person is difficult and there are many reasons for this. For some it will simply be a case of logistics while for others it will be down to personal preference and their own comfort levels.

Online With WMB is a fabulous community of people that choose to network online. Whether that is in addition to any other kind of networking they do or the only way they choose to network!

Fancy coming along and giving Online With WMB a try? Visit https://www.womenmeanbiz.co.uk/networking-events/214/online-with-wmb/ and book your place for one of our upcoming online meetings. If it’s your first time you can come for free!

Attract more dream clients with Ease and Flow with Marketing Mentor, Kaye King

Wednesday 30th September - Via ZOOM

Discover a calm, consistent approach to marketing that feels good and attracts clients who will bring you joy!

If you're a coach, consultant, or service business founder who resists marketing because it feels too overwhelming, pushy and complicated, this workshop is for you.

Marketing is a huge topic and it's easy to think you *should* be doing all the things - the social media, the podcast interviews, the blogging, the email marketing...the list is endless. And when you're trying to do all the things, you end up doing bits of everything, without really knowing if it's the right thing to do. And you don't get the results you deserve.

When you join this online workshop created and delivered by Kaye King, Marketing Mentor, you'll put all that confusion, overwhelm and resistance behind you.

Together you'll map out an approach to marketing that feels natural, aligned, and easeful, so that you'll actually want to implement it, and attract more dream clients as a result.

"Having a website is essential for business, building an online presence, and the website needs to perform well, meeting the needs (and answering the questions) of your visitors.

This is where website analytics come into the conversation. Website analytics provide insights into how people interact with your site. Leveraging these insights can lead to massive improvements in both performance and user satisfaction."

In her recent blog, Women Mean Biz member Molly Koeneman discusses why understanding the analytics on your website is vital for growth!

Our groups are warm, friendly and often filled with humour too. We believe that above all else, networking should be FUN, so come as you are (no need for suits/formal attire unless that's how you feel most comfortable) and let us get to know you and your business. You never know, someone else at the meeting could really need your services or know someone who does!

At our in person meetings you will enjoy a delicious lunch but if you prefer to network from your home or office, we have plenty of online options as well! And if you've never been to one of our online meetings before, the first one is free!

However, you choose to network with us, we will be pleased to welcome you to our community!

“Being part of WMB has been such a positive experience.

From my very first meeting, I felt genuinely welcomed and supported. It’s incredibly inspiring to be surrounded by so many talented, ambitious, and kind people who are always willing to encourage one another.

WMB has given me not only valuable connections but also the confidence and motivation to keep growing, both personally and professionally. Every event leaves me feeling more inspired than the last.

I’m truly grateful to be part of such a warm, empowering, and uplifting community.” - Vetla M, Member of Women Mean Biz Bristol

Are you looking for a community of business owners who can support you in the growth and sustainability of your business and who you can help in return? Networking isn’t just about referrals, although those are an important part of it. It’s also about having people who can help you brainstorm ideas, be shoulders to cry on when times are a bit harder than usual and also celebrate your wins, big and small.

Good networking should be about building a support system as much as it is about getting sales and when done properly it’s about the lasting friendships you make along the way!
Want to find out if WMB is the right place for you to create these valuable business connections?

Visit https://www.womenmeanbiz.co.uk/networking-events/ and book for a meeting today. We can’t wait to see you!
