Meet the Team
Cross Networking was formed by two local business people, Lloyd Morgan and Lucy Cooper.
Lloyd Morgan runs a Poole based Video Production company called Lloyd Morgan Productions, producing promotional, corporate, event, and wedding videos across the UK. Clients include Tesco, Fightline Supplements, England Rugby and United Through Sport Charity.
Lucy Cooper has recently formed her own HR Consultancy business called CoCo Consultancy. Having worked for many years for HR Firms in London, she decided to leave the city life and set up on her own in Poole, Dorset.
Both individuals have a great deal of passion for business, and are keen networkers, but why did they form Cross Networking?
Lloyd says "Business Networking has become unaccessible for small businesses, not only due to the cost, but its traditional corporate attitudes. When I first set up my company I was very keen to network, but local events weren't accommodating my needs. I find networking in an informal environment much easier and more relaxing; its these opportunities that usually result in good contacts, which strengthen a companies network."
Cross Networking was created to accommodate for small to medium sized businesses, and will continue to develop and adapt to meet the requirements of its members.

Launch Event
We hosted the Launch Event yesterday evening, and it was a great success! The guests all thoroughly enjoyed themselves, and utilised the networking opportunity.
With several sign ups to Cross Networking on the night, and many more interested in our future events, we were very pleased with how the evening went.
It was great to have individuals such as the editor of DV8 Magazine come along, and give such positive feedback on not only the event itself, but the service that we are providing for small businesses in the local area. She brought along one of their photographers to take some photos of the evening to be included in next months magazine, and also will be interviewing us for a later issue.
Thanks so much to everyone who came along!

Cross Networking Launch Event
Cross Networking is an Affordable and Effective Local Business Networking Company based in Poole & Bournemouth, UK.
Tonight, 15th March 2011 is our Official Launch Event. Having gone live with our website a few weeks previously, this has been the moment we have been waiting for.
The event being held at Patricks Restaurant and Bar, Ashley Cross, Poole, has entertainment provided by local guitarist Kev Stockley, with waitering provided by The Cheeky Buff Butlers, and Branded Cupcakes from C's Cupcakes. This should make for a great evening, with some perfect photo opportunities for DV8 Magazine that are attending the event.
We hope to share some of our experiences from setting up the business, and also tips to help you utilise networking opportunities.
For those of you who are attending, we look forward to seeing you this evening.
