No one is compelled to bring a lead to a meeting. Members work for each other through friendship and reciprocal favors rather than quotas. We try to eliminate cold calls through referrals. And we don't just make referrals -- we work to make QUALIFIED referrals for one another.
At every meeting, we have ten-minute presentation by one of our members. Here are some hints on how to use your time to best advantage. These techniques work best when each member has been thoroughly educated in what other members need and what the other members are seeking in new business opportunities.
