My Expos are a little different to all the others.
Firstly, if it says 10am until 3pm. That’s precisely what happens. You can be safe in the knowledge that if you want to rock up at 2.30pm, then you can and we will all still be there, waiting to greet you!
Secondly, there won’t be oodles of the same types of business. Nobody wants to visit an Expo and be faced with 42 web developers or 17 solicitors, and the like. There will never be more than 2 or 3 of the same sector. Makes it interesting for everyone exhibiting and everyone visiting.
You can learn stuff too > There’ll be a bunch of seminars you can attend – keep checking back here for updates, or pop along to Eventbrite.
Networking > Make sure you allow a good few hours, as the 89 exhibitors are across 3 rooms, so you’ll need to make sure you have plenty of business cards and a lot of stamina to do lots of networking!
FREE PARKING > Thought it does get busy. The hotel staff will be available to help you find a space.
FREE BAG TO CARRY ALL YOUR MERCH > Collect this on arrival, along with a brochure explaining what’s what and where you can find everyone.
FOOD > The hotel have a restaurant on the ground floor, so if you want to make a day of it, grab a bite to eat, a coffee or something stronger, to keep you going!
FANCY A STAND TO PROMOTE YOUR BUSINESS?
Then drop me a line at your earliest convenience. Email me at sam@sam-networking.co.uk Of the 89 available, only a handful remain and this is because it’s gained a lot of followers over the last 4 years, making it the ‘go-to’ Expo in the region.
See you there, Sam!
Networking can be exhausting, pressured and boring. Not at Sam Networking. Yes we are there for business but I don’t think I have ever been to a meeting where there isn’t lots of laughter, positivity and genuinely interesting content. That’s just how Sam runs it and it’s by far the best formula I’ve ever come across.
There once was a lady named Sam, who cheered for each business, oh, damn! With a ‘chuffin’ hell’ she’d exclaim, support them all in the business game. I’m a big fan!
Like most things in life, the leader shapes the group/people/country, etc. to reflect their beliefs. SAM Networking is no exception. Sam has created an atmosphere that is warm, inviting and allows me to say I’m crap at that’. The other businesses in the group are encouraged to be supportive and kind and offer help when and where it is needed. It’s a great laugh and no meeting is complete without Sam saying ‘Chuffin’ Hell’. I learn something every week and my business has benefited enormously from being a member.
Having attended other more regimented business networking groups in the past, I feel that Sam has developed a great mix between business focus and enjoying each other’s company with like- minded people. I would urge you to give it a try.
This fun and friendly group is keen to support each other in a relaxed and unpressured way. Sam is passionate about helping her members succeed and does all she can with her extended network to connect people with others.
I’ve experienced both online and in-person networking with Sam’s groups. They’re run professionally and full of really good, enthusiastic business owners. For me, there is an enjoyable, more relaxed atmosphere. Despite this approach, it doesn’t stop the flow of genuine, ongoing business referrals and collaborations. Definitely one of my favourite networking groups. I’d also like to add that Sam turned out to be taller than I’d imagined and nothing like an Oompa Lumpa. (I had only seen Sam on Zoom until a few months ago!).
