🅲🅰🅻🅻🅸🅽🅶 🅱🆄🆂🅸🅽🅴🆂🆂 🅾🆆🅽🅴🆁🆂 🅸🅽 🅲🅾🅻🅲🅷🅴🆂🆃🅴🆁 Did you know that 95% of business professionals believe that face-to-face networking meetings are essential for long term, successful business relationships? Which means if you're not attending events like this you are potentially missing out on a hell of a lot! Networking brings with it so many benefits, aside from the mutually beneficial business connections you make, the knowledge which is shared amongst like-minded people is priceless. Immersing yourself in a network of people who support you, and who understand the highs and lows of being in business is exactly what you need to encourage you through the rough times, and celebrate with you on the good times! Networking is not a 'buy my shit' competition. It's about long term consistency, sustainability, and growth. It's allowing people to get to know you, your skills, your knowledge, the way you work, and seeing the results you bring about. It can be such a powerful addition to every business owners world, if it's done right, and at Effective Business Network (UK) Ltd (Known as ebn), we do it right. Our Colchester group is newly launched and we have room for many more professionals who are looking to grow their network. Come and join us for a relaxed, informal, but business focused meeting, link in the comments...

This month has been a complete whirlwind from start to finish. An utter cacophony of situations, emotions, and circumstances has more than kept me on my toes. The 1st of July saw me halfway through an unexpected hospital admission, the discovery that I have something rather unpleasant going on in my body, and a meeting in the hospital coffee shop to seal the deal with the Effective Business Network (UK) Ltd (Known as ebn) sale. Roll forward to today and the first thing I've noticed from these pictures is that my skin's tone looks much healthier than it did at the start of the month! Less grey, more glow! I have travelled (what feels like) the entirety of Essex this month and met more people than I can remember, including names and faces; please accept this as my public apology if I forget we've met when I see you next! I've had some exciting meetings regarding the future of ebn and the plans to enhance the network are phenomenal! I'm facing challenges I hadn't even dreamt I would have to deal with, but I'm tougher than I look and will do whatever it takes. Never someone to be beaten down, I do not admit defeat easily, perhaps I should change my name to Tenacious N 😂 But, I am only human. The saying that Rome wasn't built in a day is something I have to keep reminding myself of as I can be impatient, even with myself and how quickly I want to get things accomplished. There have been (and are likely to be more) little hiccups as I incorporate a new business into my life. I also have to regularly tell my brain to stop beating me up over them all because I am not perfect and it's ok to make mistakes. When I make a mistake it sets off a lot of unwanted feelings inside my brain and the chain of thought that begins with me having done something wrong which I will pay the price for. When you associate making a mistake/getting it wrong/having an accident with your misgivings being punished it causes you to be mega hard on yourself, which is neither helpful or productive. Your default setting is that you're not good enough, the proof being that you have 'done something wrong' when the reality is it's no big deal. It's an unfortunate remnant of abuse and trauma which I'm sure many other people can relate to. I hope you read this and don't have a clue what I'm talking about, because that means you've never experienced being physically or emotionally punished for what you have said or done. If reading these words makes perfect sense to you take this moment to remember that mistakes happen, accidents happen, and the entire human race gets shit wrong. None of it makes you a bad person. It does not mean you're not good enough. You don't deserve or need to be punished, least of all by yourself. Take a deep breath, remember you're fucking fabulous, and leave all that shit behind because it's doing you absolutely no favours whatsoever! And while you do that, check out where I'll be hanging out next month, link in the comments...

Early morning breakfast networking events throughout Essex.   ❓𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗜 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗱?

The buzz from connecting with other business owners means my day begins in a way which sets me up for a much more productive, business-focused day than usual.   When you usually spend much of your time working alone it can be challenging to give yourself the push you need to get shit done.   And let’s not even get started on the devil which is procrastination. Or the dreaded lack of motivation which hits us all from time to time.   𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝘀𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗻𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘀.   It doesn’t interfere with ‘normal’ working hours, meaning I haven’t lost half a day travelling to and from an event I’m attending.   If you’re like me and have avoided early morning networking events, let me tell you my friend, you are missing out!   🤩 This is your sign to give it a go! ❓ Why not join me on my travels? ⏰ Get that alarm set and do it!

🗣 I don't think I stopped talking for 12 straight hours yesterday, and obviously it's not like me to be talking a lot 😂 I didn't even get a chance to take any pictures capturing how great my first Effective Business Network event played out! 🤩 The vibe in the room was simply amazing as business owners from all over Essex came together for a superb afternoon of networking. 🤩 The lively conversations naturally flowed, new connections were made, and potential collaborations were discovered! Business networking is not about rocking up and 'selling your shit' to the people in the room. 🚫 🪄 The magic happens naturally when you allow people to get to know you, the real you, the person behind your company name and your profession. ✨️ Sharing your passions, experiences and knowledge is far more powerful for your business growth than simply telling people what you do for a living. Because let's face it, we're all bloody nosy and we love hearing what others have to say 😂 so it kinda makes a lot of sense! We might not like, or agree with it all, but we definitely enjoy the juicy stuff! And that's what helps people decide if they want to work with you, or refer you to others. That's what networking is about and what yesterday saw in abundance; it was fantastically awesome! Thank you to every single person who contributed to making this event so bloody brilliant 👏 And to those who couldn't make it, you missed out on some delicious cakes, of which I now have a whole fridge full of! 🍰🍰🍰🍰 So for the remainder of the weekend I shall probably be found in my office (or my bed because I'm shattered) attempting to keep cake crumbs off my keyboard as I diligently attempt to work my way through a little of it! 😂 If anyone local needs large quantities of cake this weekend, please feel free to come and collect some and save me from myself! (Seriously, I have so much!)

Over 100 Networking Extravaganza name badges made for this afternoon! Still time to book! https://lnkd.in/dyXWMGv3
