Every successful business, small or large, knows the importance of networking. An expensive endeavour for many companies to date, a new club is springing up in the Langley area that is making networking both effective and free, a rarity in the business community.
The club is called BCS, short for Business Card Social, and offers an opportunity for Langley businesses to build personal relationships with consumers, suppliers and prospective clients. The club was started last year by a group of women in Maple Ridge and has exploded into a social, effective and informal meet and greet to boost the company profile in the community.
These socials allow more than just a structured exchange of cards. Attendance is regulated, but members can also appoint other people to attend on their behalf, and are not required to stay for the full networking session. The flexibility of BCS is a winner for most businesses, as they can drop in as they please without even signing up for networking sessions in advance.
The advantage of BCS for Langley Print companies is easy to see. An business card exchange encourages business card printing and reinforces its importance, during a time when some businesses may question the usefulness and viability of the printed business card.
The event is held at various venues on the second Tuesday of each month. The next Business Card Social is scheduled for Friday March 16th at the Mocha Room. Interested businesses can visit businesscardsocial.com for information and order a fresh batch of Business Cards from their local printer to distribute to attendees.Get a Free Quote for Business Cards Get a Free Quote for Print
