Networking to Win New Business

No Events

Networking is a key and cost effective marketing activity. It requires skill, discipline and confidence so that the most positive impact is made and business is the result. If you need to network but lack the skills, experience, competencies and confidence, this course will be a life changer for you. If you need to walk into a room full of strangers and engage in structured conversation with relevant contacts, often described as “working the room”, this course is for you. If the very thought of it fills you with dread, you’ll leave the course with a new set of skills and the confidence you need to succeed. The course will be fun, challenging and fully interactive and supported by presentations, demonstrations, interactive discussions, debate, group work and individual tasks. The course will also include plenty of opportunity to practice in a safe environment, but don’t worry, you won’t be forced to perform or made to feel uncomfortable at any time. This is about great learning with like minded professionals in a fun environment!
