18.01.2022 So what is the 12 x 12 x 12 rule? What do you look like from 12 feet away? Are you prepared, have you dressed appropriately for the event you are attending? Do ...you have what you need for the event? Preparing in advance by researching the dress code for the event, knowing what time to turn up and what you need to bring with you can make you much more comfortable about walking into a room. What do you look like from 12 inches away? Do you still look as prepared? Do you understand the culture of the event you are attending? Are your clothes clean, is your breath fresh? This may not seem important however you don’t want to be the one remembered for not ironing your shirt or having bad breath! Can you easily find your business cards? Make sure you look professional at all times, have your business cards to hand when you need them and ensure you know when is the best time to hand over your cards. What are the first 12 words out of your mouth? This is the most important point. Have you thought about what you are going to say to someone else at a networking event, because the worst time to think about what you want to say is when you are saying it. Think about concise ways you can get your points across what you want to say about your business, your target market, the benefits of your product or service etc. Think about examples of projects you are working on or stories about how you helped clients. Be confident and speak with conviction. So next time you are going to a networking event or holiday party, check out if you have followed the 12x12x12 rule.

06.01.2022 I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. Maya Angelou It’s completely normal for even the most seasoned of business owners to get anxious when meeting new people and networking. We can get so nervous about the way that we present ourselves that we can easily make the mistake of forgetting about other people in the conversation entirely. Active listening can easily be hijacked... by nerves and the impending realisation (and soon to follow, evidence) that you skipped antiperspirant that morning. It takes practice, practice and MORE practice to become comfortable feeling uncomfortable, so don’t feel discouraged if this is something that you struggle with. What are some things you do to help others feel comfortable and welcome when you meet them for the first time?

05.01.2022 Great informative presentations by Brent Ehlerth from Ehlerth Electrical and John Rooney from John's Total Apartment Painting today. Look forward to the next week's and another awesome meeting!

02.01.2022 || SPEAKER THIS WEEK || Each week at our meeting, one of our members gets the opportunity to present to us and tell us a little about their business... Our speaker this week is James Howlin from Cake Accounting @https://cakeaccounting.com.au/... Cake Accounting exists to help business owners achieve their goals.

Founded in 2015, Cake Accounting was established to provide growing businesses the advice that high net wealth individuals receive from their city-based advisore.

01.01.2022 Some business people seem to have all the luck. At just the right time, the right people seem to appear in the path of these lucky people, ready to introduce th...em to people who will give them all the business they could ever desire. Do you know any people like this? Then you should also know that it’s likely more than just luck that brings a deluge of referrals their way. These people likely have built strong Power Teams for themselves. A Power Team is a group of people of complementary professions. They work with the same clients, but do not take business away from each other. Great examples of these are easily found in the real estate and wedding industries. A realtor, mortgage broker, building inspector, title agency, and a real estate attorney all service clients looking to purchase property. A wedding planner, photographer, and florist are among the many professions that cater to the bride-to-be. If these professions form a Power Team, when one person in the team gets business, he or she can refer the client to every other member in the team. So it’s more than just luck. Successful business people have the ability to select and cultivate mutually beneficial relationships with high-quality people in strategically important business categories, and this ability is a core competency for maximum success in networking. So how do you cultivate such relationships? It’s vital that you find out as much as possible about your Power Partners so that you can send the right kind of business their way. You need to learn what makes your Power Team partner special as a person, as well as how to recognize your partner’s best prospects. As a result, you can be an effective Bragging Buddy for your partners. As a Bragging Buddy, your job is to help prospects like, trust, and want to do business with your Power Teamwhile they are doing the same thing for you!
