Do you believe this network can help that person that you are talking to and your team?

Nothing to do with SIZE of group – you have people committed to meeting every week to help each other find business.

  1. WHO DO YOU ALREADY KNOW:

Hey – I have a quick question: Are you looking to grow your business in the area? The reason is I work closely with local businesspeople, and we help grow each other’s business. We were meeting last week, and they said they would like to meet someone in your industry. I thought of you. Do you want to meet these people? We’re meeting on (date of event) would you like a personal introduction?
