Lovely group of individuals who are all there to do business and pass genuine referrals to each other.
Huddersfield
EVERY FRIDAY | 7.15AM – 9AM
Our Huddersfield group is held at the Cedar Court, Ainley Top, Lindley Moor Road, Hudderfield HD3 3RH. Literally 2 minutes from the M62, junction 24.
SAM Business Expos
My Expos are a little different to others you may have visited. I have over 60 businesses all under one roof and no more than TWO of any sector – which makes it a much better and more interesting experience for delegates and exhibitors alike!
It’s FREE to attend and always will be, including FREE onsite parking.
WANT TO BE ONE OF 65 BUSINESS EXHIBITING? Then drop Sam a line at sam@sam-networking.co.uk for details on cost, expected traffic, etc.
SAM
Socials
At SAM, we’re super social and find that the better we get to know each other, the more the referrals come flying in. We have lots of get togethers throughout the year. After the Business EXPO in April, we celebrate our busy day of connecting by relaxing with a few beers.
Then the Summer party BBQ is getting bigger each year, with more and more members attending. We have a live band (a few members are in different bands), lots of yummy food and lots of refreshments! So far, the weather has been kind too!
Christmas time brings another party. All groups join forces to round off the year and enjoy a Christmas lunch, drinks, fun quizzes and awards for the best attended to name but a few!
SAM
Charity
We love to support local charities here at SAM and lots of the local ones enjoy FREE membership and visit the meetings on a regular basis. This gives them access to a massive support system and lots of business professionals to lean on and collaborate with.
Many of our members love to undertake their own fund-raising activities too for our charities. We’ve had members throw themselves out of aeroplanes, do wing walks, whilst others took part in a wheelchair race to demonstrate how tough it is to have a disability. This year, one member is undertaking the rather gruelling London marathon! Also, in the depths of Winter, a few members are sleeping rough for 24 to support the homeless.
We have many events too with our charities. Charity balls, golf days, you name it, anything goes and everyone is happy to get involved. Our last charity ball, the Monster Mash, raised over £17,500. How fabulous is that?!
Check Out Our Members
A conglomeration of extremely pleasant, local, very experienced and inspirational professionals (some start-ups too), motivating each other to do business, referring genuine potential business partners to each other through an enormous network of contacts and simply supporting one other with advice and wisdom when things can get tough.
All peppered with a little humour (who wants to attend a miserable business meeting?!) and some members just choosing to have a catch-up over a delicious breakfast/lunch and a cup of fresh coffee. Whatever works for you.
Why Businesses Love Sam Networking
Personal Travel Consultant, Jetset NJT
As a member of the Halifax SAM Networking group, I very much look forward to our meetings each Thursday morning where we get to know and learn about each other’s businesses in a fun, friendly environment over a full English Breakfast! This less formal style of networking appeals to me and it really works with lots of new business passed each week. I highly recommend SAM Networking.
Not Just Travel
I’ve been looking back at 2021 and realised most of the business I’ve given and received has come from being in our local SAM Networking Ltd group. Not only have they given Portel business but they’ve also given me support and friendship, a reason to get up, dress up and turn up every Friday even in the early morning grim winter weather (Welcome to Yorkshire !). It’s always a warm welcome and lots of valuable interaction. Yes 2021 has been the worst of times but its also been the best of times, partly due to Samantha Hartley and her brilliant idea to set up SAM Networking Ltd
Portel AV
I joined SAM Networking about three months ago and was warmly welcomed into the group. Now on a Friday morning, we meet up and have fun while we support each other in business. Sam’s unique approach to networking is non-stuffy and comical and yet the basic principles for effective networking are observed. Friday mornings are now like being able to wrap a big coat of support around you in a meeting style like no other.
Credere Solutions
I am thrilled with my experience with SAM’s Networking. I first encountered the group at an event and was genuinely amazed by the warm welcome I received. The invitation to join their online networking community was unexpected but incredibly appreciated. The members are an amazing bunch of people, radiating positive energy, and every interaction is filled with laughter. If you’re in search of exceptional networking, look no further than SAM’s Networking.
