I attended my first SBN networking event and was impressed by the caliber of attendees. In fact, a new contact I met has become a $150,000 client. What a return on my small investment! I would strongly recommend professionals in any industry to take advantage of SBN's opportunities.

I just wanted to send a quick thank you for putting on such a wonderful event last night. I was in such a rush leaving, I didn't have time to say thanks in person. I personally benefited greatly from the evening. I believe I recieved around 20 cards, and have already been contacted by four who want to sit down to discuss different aspects of their financial plans. In return, I have already made contacts for a couple of people I sat with last night, even though at this time my services were not needed by them personally. Hopefully, I will be able to help them out in any way I can. I have heard great comments about your networking events, especially from those who attend the recruiter's event, and I must say that I was impressed. It far exceeded my expectations.

I was a little skeptical coming in but 'blown away' by the results. One major contact with respect to a company I would like to work with.

Let me compliment you and your staff on such a professional, effective, impactful event. I appreciate all of the details that you so obviously work out to allow professionals to network in a timely, organized manner. I noticed items like:
1) Having the food/beverages in a different room.
2) Well organized registration that expedited the check in process, allowing the participants to mingle.
3) Nicely printed name tags (not hand-written.)
4) Printed table numbers.
5) Exellent instructions/directions describing the goals of the event.
6) Good for you for encouraging the "Giver's Gain" philosophy, so there wasn't an atmosphere of "Only what I say is important."
I look forward to attending as many of your events as my/our schedule will allow.

I've had the pleasure of attending several Strategic Business Network events and have no hesitation whatsoever recommending them. For every busy person who knows that networking is critical yet worries about wasting the time
with ordinary networking efforts, Strategic Business Network events are not to be missed. An SBN event starts on time, ends on time, and squeezes out the maximum interpersonal communication value possible in between. Adam Small and his organization deliver up networking on steroids.

It is amazing how investing such a little bit of time in something can bring
such great results. After attending just two of SBN's I became confident
and comfortable enough with networking to walk into any event and meet
anyone. Networking has already opened up several new business relationships
for me. SBN turned me from a complete network-phobe into a total
network-fan.
