Starting with the PEP (People Empowering People) 4 meeting taking place on January 4th, Downtown Professionals Business Networking is going for an early morning networking session. Scheduled to begin at 9:00 am, local professionals will be able to participate in a structured yet mutually supportive referral network.
Following the ‘one professional per category’ format, the group is opened by the President and each attendee has an opportunity to introduce the others to his or her company. Since the first couple of meetings can be attended with no additional obligations, business owners have nothing to lose by dropping in at this event.
If the Downtown Professionals Business Networking meet-up doesn’t work out, Let’s Coffee Chat is another referral group that’s holding an event January 9th, 2012. Scheduled to take place from noon to 1:30 pm, this is an excellent chance for Colorado Springs professionals to learn about referral marketing and put some of those techniques into practice.
As the organizers have explained it:
“Let’s Coffee Chat meetings are designed to empower the business professionals...to have and launch into a 100% referral-based business. Each meeting is facilitated by our “Chatter” facilitator so our guests can effectively apply the referral-marketing strategies we teach at the beginning of our meetings to generate leads and referrals for each other and themselves.”
Whichever way Colorado Springs’ business professionals choose to go, these are two networking opportunities worth looking into.
