Expanding the Business Network

Still in the early stages of the development of Cross Networking, we have formed links with local business circles, who over the past year have shown interest in developing a 'new', 'local' network.  The main circle we have integrated with are companies based in Lower Parkstone (also known as Ashley Cross), and the surrounding areas.

This morning the Cross Networking Team (Lucy Cooper and Lloyd Morgan), met with a group of individuals from the Lower Parkstone business circle, and discussed how we could utilise each others resources to form a stronger, more established network for local businesses.

The meeting was a great success, and as result going forward Cross Networking will be expanding and developing to incorporate the new businesses that are coming onboard.  This will include weekly business breakfasts in Poole, in addition to the bi-monthly meeting that Cross Networking currently offer.

Also, to help market the new business network in Poole and Bournemouth, we have utilised a new local business welovedeals.co.uk, ran by businessman Lee Nazari who attended our Launch event in March.  He has helped us by offering an exclusive one time only offer for reduced cost annual membership for one year.

We Love Deals exclusive offer for Cross Networking, local business breakfast in Poole & Bournemouth.

We were keen to to market the network, but we did not want to devalue the membership.  This marketing choice was a great way to get the company logo seen, and help establish ourselves within the local business community.  The offer going live today will be shown to a large demographic in Poole and Bournemouth, and will run for a short period of time, with limited membership available under the offer.

With exciting prospects on the horizon for Cross Networking, we hope local businesses can see the possibilities, and utilise the platform that we have created, to form stronger links, and create business opportunities that will help the development of new and established companies locally.

Business Breakfast, Poole

Today Cross Networking host their first Business Breakfast at Grove Bar in Ashley Cross, Poole. The event had a fantastic spread of locally sourced fruit and pastries, and the Grove offered delicious fresh coffee to order.

The turn out was not as big as hoped, but the event saw lots of new faces, all of which were keen to be a part of the new informal business networking group, based in Poole and Bournemouth.

Great feedback from the event, and some exciting new interest in helping expand this new company.
