On Tuesday 14th September 2010 the Harvey Marketing will be co- hosting the fourth ‘Brighton Business Curry Club’ at the Eastern Eye Restaurant on London Road and we would like to see you there…It will be a 6pm start like last time with nibbles and a drink on arrival. This will give you a chance to meet other local business owners and circulate your business cards. Afterwards we will be sitting down for a main course typical of southern India, with different featured Indian dishes for each of our events. All in all, a very low key relaxed networking event, where there is the opportunity to exchange business and get to meet new people. The July event saw over 50 different businesses attend…

The price will be £11.99 for the event based on networking, a selection of nibbles on arrival, welcome drink, naan breads and maincourse. (The event must be pre booked and paid for in advance.) Plus, what’s new is our online payment system which has been set up for ease of payment. To confirm your place for our next event, please make a payment to the event PayPal account which is: curry@letmedothatforyou.co.uk

The POWER of Networking

admin — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 07:37:38 +0000

Networking is an incredible tool for generating business in my opinion and something which helps businesses understand the different business types that are out there. Success in networking isn’t guaranteed though and it depends to which business type or industry type you are operating in. Networking enhances the process of relationship marketing and relationship building whereby every contact could possibly become a buyer of your products or services, or on the other hand these contacts could become ‘sales ambassadors’ for your business. With all this in mind though, you have to ask yourself the question – is the perception of what I’m presenting as good as it can be, is there an opportunity to follow up on this contact and is this the right networking event for me? Your ability to spot opportunities in networking and then convert into a sale where possible is paramount also.

Some people don’t network and they can be incredibly successful, some people don’t network and have very little business. I personally generate about 50% of my business through networking then about 50% through referrals. Networking helps with the development of an individual too and enhances ones ability to communicate. This is so important in business as some people do not always have strengths in these areas.

I actually offer marketing mentoring whereby I take clients into networking situations and they become more effective at building relationships and ‘closing sale’. I also host the ‘Brighton Business Curry Club’ which attracts around 50 networkers on a monthly basis. It is clear to see that people are winning business by attending these events and they are developing their profile in the market place. I highly recommend networking and it helps me maintain revenue levels in my business and my clients’ businesses’. Plus it helps me support my profile in my given business markets.

Does your business require a ‘marketing mentor’?

A marketing mentor is a marketing expert who will develop you, encourage you – and motivate you in such a way so you are in the best possible position to get to the next level. Small business owners and marketing managers sometimes need to remind themselves to do things they know they should be doing, but often they get overlooked. For others, marketing is not second nature it is a word which is quite alien to them and always the last thing on their ‘to do list.’ The Harvey Marketing Company offers a highly experienced, senior marketeer to work alongside business owners to help them get back on track – so you are nurtured and developed in the best possible way so your business reaps the benefits.
