We believe networking is more than collecting business cards at various events in hopes of connecting later on. In order to truly reap the benefits of having a powerful business network, you must build it with intention. You must be consistent and focus on others first, the later being the most important.
Our members and guests must be executive decision makers and come recommended by their peers as having a give, serve, abundance mentality. When you get the right people together, amazing things happen quickly. We see this on a regular basis, which is why we’ve had great success. Most of that success from the great members we have that recommend us to their business network.
GIVENT Executive Network is a group of business decision makers that build trusted relationships with one another; and find ways to serve each other to accelerate business by providing solutions and connections to one’s core business needs.
I know that as I left my job with Technology Venture Corporation to start my new job with a technology startup company, we’ve had all the problems and all the difficulties and trials that startups always have. And having the resources available to me with the wonderful people of the event has been a godsend. It’s helped me in so many ways. I’ve had contacts the have allowed me to build the business and we’ve had a lot of assistance in trying to find Equity partners and also customers. More than that it’s been a real sense of comradeship and advice and assistance in trying to help get up over all of the faces and all of the difficulties that come with trying to build a business. It’s a great support system. What’s more, every time I come and I’m involved here, it helps me realize I’m part of a bigger picture. We’re not here to simply just build our own businesses but we’re here to build others. As we do that they say a rising tide lifts all boats and it’s really true. And it’s been great to be part of that experience to share my contacts and my experiences to help others build their business.
I thought originally but I wanted to meet and would need to meet people in our industry that could help us. But what I found was many of the connections I’ve gotten, or some of the best references we’ve received, aren’t related to the industry, but have become natural friendships, and business opportunities have extended from them.
I also think it’s a great opportunity to meet other Business Leaders with integrity, that have a good giving mentality. This group gives you the opportunity to rub shoulders with these kind of people which would be very difficult in any other setting and it’s a very comfortable environment.
I have gotten to know and become acquainted with, develop friendships with Business Leaders that I would not have otherwise had the opportunity. I could have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on marketing, personal effort, it etc trying to gain access to some of these people that I have the opportunity to meet with one on one comma once a month. And I get to know not only the type of business but I get to know them as in a person. That’s the exciting part for me, to get to know the person.
We all know that we do business with people that we trust and like, and that’s the beauty of GIVENT. And the reason why I have found it to be so energizing for me. Birds of a feather flock together. It’s great to come and interact with people who are successful. It’s helped to shape a new paradigm for me. I walk away not only being enriched because of the friendship but enriched because of their perspective and enthusiasm and their excitement.
Well as a lawyer I spend a lot of time at my desk. It’s really helpful for me to have the Forum where I can get out and meet people that I would probably not otherwise meet, so I was very interested in the opportunity to network with other professionals and business executive decision makers.
It’s so focused at helping me to meet people, in the region that I practice, Pocatello to Rexburg. It’s just exactly what I need to help me in my business and gives me the opportunity to help other people as well.
