Over the next couple of months, we will be looking into forming Networking Referral Groups. These Networking Groups will be called Tucson Business Connection VIP Networking Groups. These groups will meet twice a month, either for lunch or breakfast and will be category exclusive. There will be a nominal fee to belong to these groups and attendance will be mandatory. A complete list of rules will be made available soon.
These groups will not be typical leads groups. These REFERRAL groups will be made up of TBC participants/members and will be designed to help the members grow their businesses by offering REFERRALS to each other as well as educating other members on products and services offered.
Using the term Referral vs. leads.
Using the term REFERRAL is more important than the name of the group. Certain designations in a name are just being overused therefore becoming undervalued.
A lead is basically a step up from a cold call. The lead may or may not be interested in your products or services.
A Referral is more of a warm contact. It is someone who is interested in your products or services. They are expecting you to contact them, therefore being of more value.
Which would you like to receive?
To begin, we are looking at forming a committee to start the 1st group. We would like to have 4 or 5 businesses represented to form the Executive committee. This group will be the board of directors or officers of the group. This group will also be responsible for selecting the day and time the Networking Group will meet.
We are also looking for venues. If you know of a place that could host a group of 20 to 30 Business people for either breakfast or lunch, please let us know.
If you are interested in joining a Referral Group or would like to be on the Committee to help form them, please use the form below to contact us. Thank you for your consideration.
