SUMMARY:Venture Catalyst Business Networking - Redhill & Reigate
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to Venture Catalyst – a new approach to Business
  Networking\n\nBusiness Networking Gets Easier and Better\n\n\n\nWelco
 me to Venture Catalyst – a new approach to Business Networking: Form
 alised business networking groups in the UK have typically been import
 ed or copied from the USA, with an American approach – most notably 
 in the choice of VERY early morning breakfast meetings.\n\nVenture Cat
 alyst networking groups deliver more benefits at lower cost and with g
 reater ease. Generating business referrals is the most important reaso
 n why businesses join networking groups and is the prime focus of ever
 y Venture Catalyst network meeting. Our business networking meetings t
 ake place every week in the early evening, immediately after work (6.0
 0pm – 7.30pm).\n\nEvening networking offers a more relaxed approach 
 for those that want to invest time in getting to know their networking
  colleagues. This is a great benefit because stronger networking relat
 ionships produce more business referrals and more referrals mean more 
 revenue for members. Business Networking in the evening also attracts 
 more women networkers, we are proud that almost 40% of our members are
  business women.\n\nWe do the work; You just do the business.\n\nOne o
 f our unique selling points is that we don’t ask members of VC netwo
 rking groups to run visitors days or to be responsible for increasing 
 membership of the group. That’s OUR job. That’s what VC network me
 mbers pay us for. Consequently every business networking group operate
 d by Venture Catalyst sees an average of 140 different business people
  at one meeting or other in a 12 month period. That gives our members 
 the opportunity to build their network at a consistent rate of 2 or 3 
 new business contacts per week. Every one of those guests at the weekl
 y meetings is a potential client for group members and a potential ref
 errer to their wider network.\n\nBusiness Education is another core as
 pect of the Venture Catalyst networking offfering. Ranging from the ob
 vious aspects of business networking skills, to selling skills, market
 ing, business strategy models. market updates, people skills and pract
 ical business tips – Venture Catalyst delivers 8 hrs of quality busi
 ness education to its members every year; much of it drawn from the MB
 A syllabus and made relevant to the small business.\n\nBusiness Networ
 king the Venture Catalyst way draws members from all sections of the b
 usiness community. We are proud to have representatives of the big ban
 ks and a major newspapers as well as new start one person businesses a
 mongst the members of our networking groups.\n\nNon Member Fees\nFirst
