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

<p><strong>Friendly atmosphere</strong> - people don't take themselves too seriously, there are laughs and jokes mixed in with a genuine sense that everybody is looking out for each other. <strong>Good structure to the meetings</strong> - they are <strong>not too formal or overly casual</strong> and a great place to pick up tips (not always business-related). Free courses for members - I have been on several courses put on by other members and <strong>always come away having learnt something useful</strong>.</p>

<p>I have been a member of The Business Community for a number of years now. The <strong>unique mix of friendly banter</strong> with <strong>professional format and resources</strong> has been <strong>invaluable for my own business growth</strong>. I have made friendships, referred people and grown my client base thanks to The Business Community. I like there is <strong>no lockout, the meetings are a manageable size and no yearly contract</strong>.</p>

<p>Buscomm and the surrounding support and structure is an <strong>extremely valuable resource</strong> and method of finding new business. The various <strong>meetings are well structured</strong> and allow people to effectively network and meet new business contacts. I would definitely recommend BusComm to any small or medium sized businesses <strong>looking to find more work</strong>.</p>

<p>I've been part of this business networking group since first stepping out into business on my own in 2016. It has been <strong>a fabulous group</strong> to be part of not just because of the referrals I've had but also because of the <strong>fantastic support</strong> you get from the other members. <strong>Highly recommended</strong>.</p>
