It’s Not What You Know

The old adage “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know” is so true in business today.   Now there is the opportunity to build contacts through Business Networking, which is the reciprocal process of exchanging leads, recommendations, and other information, through networks of established relationships, to make business processes easier and more profitable.

Network for Growth the organisation designed to bring together directors and senior managers in the Engineering & Industrial sectors with the aim of helping to find sales growth, accessing value added suppliers and providing a forum for solving business problems offers a great ways to grow for Industrial companies of all kinds. The organisation has just launched a free web forum where anyone can join to make new contacts & solve business problems and can be accessed through www.networkforgrowth.co.uk.

The next meeting in May is aimed specifically at helping Industrial companies to grow by using the unique ASPECT system.  ASPECT is a ‘Total Business’ Assessment designed for ‘hands on’ use in organisations of any size, a ‘no-nonsense’ approach to rapid and systematic improvement.   It is for any business wishing to speedily increase their business performance in a highly competitive environment.  Drawn from the recognised best practice tools and techniques enables you to quickly identify critical areas for improvement and prioritise these into a concise and vital few action plan.  It works by harnessing the combined experience and commercial business acumen of members of your team, supplemented by expert advice of ASPECT.

Are you driven by financial results?  Isn’t this like driving a car using the rear view mirrors only? A major threat facing many organisations is not being able to adapt fast enough in an environment where the pace of change is accelerating. This is fuelled in no small way by developments in e-business and relentless ‘cost down’ pressure from key customers. When the speed of change increases, decision-making has to speed up, however, if the process 'less than robust' all that will happen is that you will make poor decisions faster.  Come along and learn how you can drive you business forward with the unique ASPECT process.

Ian Gott the managing director of Network for Growth Ltd says,  “Network for Growth runs two powerful networks, one for Industrial companies and one for Commercial companies.  They meet separately but there are also opportunities for both networks to meet at our Mega events and our successful Business Showcase events.  There are many excellent organisations that facilitate networking, some work only through passing referrals about business contacts and others who arrange meetings in an ad-hoc way, many are flooded by service sector companies. Network for Growth has a unique blend of the two whilst controlling the number of similar companies involved and provides a different and cost effective way to find that extra growth, that new supplier or partner and a way to solve and share business problems that makes a real difference to the ‘bottom line’.
