Network Exchange is a business dedicated to help other businesses re-organize. It provides concierge services that cater to business needs. It’s primary goal is to build a community, share information to help businesses succeed, and to help businesses develop and implement a strategic plan based on their specific needs and budget.
Why Network Exchange was founded?
A change is needed.
Every business is different and every business has different needs. Yet many business owners fall victim to confusing offers to help you grow your business. As a serial entrepreneur and business owner myself, I have come across many ideas on how to grow my business but I was limited with my budget, time, and skills.
I went to many networking events and was happy to meet a lot of professionals and dedicated business owners but did not find the best solutions for MY business. Instead, I found myself spending money on products or services I didn’t need. So then I tried to do things myself to save time and money but I found that not only did I utilize more time, but I certainly spent more money with little to no results.
I also found that the many different networking events all had a similar structure and often the same people, the same questions, and the same answers. The endless elevator speeches about who you are, who is your best client, and what is expected from the networking meeting.
Although I believe that networking is an important aspect of a business and meeting people is on of the greatest benefits, without a purpose and goal in mind it can become stagnant. If found many wanted to meet after the meet and greets, but fulfilling connections were not established. I wanted more, I wanted to truly know the person I was connecting with and learn how we can help each other with the intention to action.
Goals for Network Exchange
I decided that the best way to get what I needed as a business owner was to create exactly what I needed. Hence the creation of the Network Exchange platform! It has been designed to connect, establish meaningful relationships, share information on business resources, and help businesses avoid unnecessary business expenses from an ever expanding and endless number of “must do” business trends.
Exchange of Information
A major goal of ours is to help businesses enhance the skills they already have and let the network of Network Exchange take care of the skills they don’t have. This is accomplished through our membership newsletter, blog posts, info sessions, and 1-on-1 consulting sessions.
UPDATE: Virtual Networking – Network Exchange began networking online in August 2019.
Crowding Funding for Crowd Networking
Networking is easy for some, impossible for others, and ineffective for many! There are 3 solutions to improve your networking:
- Attend appropriate networking events. I plan to showcase existing networking meet ups and connect others to the ones that will be more beneficial to them. Options for virtual networking too!
- Learn how to network effectively. Many of our posts, sessions, and messages teach your how to improve your networking skills or provide you with the #1 best networking technique – to help the person address a need by referring an appropriate business.
- Get someone to network for you. That’s where Network Exchange will attend networking events to promote our members’ businesses.
Visual Marketing Advertising
Creating visuals for social media, blogs, and memorable print campaigns is difficult for many, but it is one of the primary initiatives of Network Exchange. Our visuals will promote out members’ businesses with specific offers.
