At my Connections Club events, we often have speakers and visitors from large, sometimes national companies and their insights are incredibly valuable to the members in the room. But that value goes both ways. 👉 Here are 5 ways that large, national companies and local businesses can benefit from networking with each other: 1. Local businesses often have fantastic knowledge of regional markets, and local consumer preferences, which can be invaluable to national companies who can’t always access that granular detail. 2. Networking with local businesses demonstrates a commitment by national companies to supporting the community increasing their CSR impact. 3. Local businesses who may be smaller in size can really benefit from the insights of larger, national businesses, strengthening the local business economy. 4. Building relationships with respected businesses can solidify credibility with local stakeholders and customers. 5. Local businesses can be more agile and innovative, giving national companies a new way to look at changing market conditions and customer behaviours. 📢 If you’re a decision-maker representing a national company, I’d love to speak to you about visiting a Connections Club event. Send me a DM and we can arrange a chat. #businessroom #connectionsclub #networking #businessnetworking #yourbusinessmatters
