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.
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.
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!
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?!
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.
SAM Networking is the most proactive network group I have ever belonged to!
Providing you put in the time and effort, the SAM Networking Group will help you grow your business through online and face-to-face networking, 121 meetings, expos and more. Sam’s gives this network it’s unique personality but the best thing is it does WORK! Can’t wait to see the results for 3R in 2024!
A networking group like no other – SAM Networking facilitates genuine connections and stellar referrals between local businesses. As the youngest member of the group, I felt daunted by the whole concept of networking prior to joining, yet since taking the plunge I have attained a large proportion of my business from my fellow SAM networkers, gained confidence in public speaking, and built strong relationships with individuals who are experts in their field. No one week is ever the same at SAM Networking, and if you were looking for a sign to join, this is it!
Did I forget to mention the full English and unlimited coffees every single week?
Being a part of SAM Networking changed my entire working life! I have attended both the Bradford and Halifax groups over the past 3 years as of 16/01/2024.
When I first started networking, I was absolutely shi**ing my pants and was extremely shy; the groups helped me massively to come out of my shell and interact with other amazing businesses.
Massive thanks to SAM and all my fellow networkers for everything you do for me and my business!
P.S. SAM Networking actually gives you a false sense of security. You go to SAM Networking, have a fabulous experience, but then go networking elsewhere and it’s pants!
SAM Networking offers a great atmosphere, great people and great referrals. I am glad to be an inaugural member of the group.
What a refreshing group this is – such a lovely mix and the informal style is brilliant. Connections were formed pretty much instantly. As a total plus – Sam is hilarious and has a real passion for the group and helping people.
