Member Testimonials

David Plumley from Integrate Networks says:

I’m soon to begin my 6th year of collaboration with this good mix of local businesses.  Over that time, and by meeting together on a weekly basis, we know each other, and our respective businesses, really very well.

“But why have you remained associated for that long?”.  “What’s the benefit?”  Well simply put, we have built up confidence in each other and in the standards we all seek to implement.  Because of this we are able to frequently pass valuable referrals for new business.  We have all grown and developed because of these trusted relationships. Collaboration is the way to go … we have proven this to be so.

We are a mix of the professions, the service sector and the trades and we welcome all who do quality work in any field.  And we assist each other in numerous ways, pooling our business experience and skills to make us all more effective and profitable.

The small investment in time each week is the best shot in the arm for my company and for any local businesses looking to grow.

Scott Griffiths from Eseyo says:

I have been a member of this group for 12 years now, and it is one of the most important parts of my marketing strategy. Each year I have received good business to the value of more than 20 times the cost of membership. It’s a no-brainer to be a member!

One of the other important aspects of membership to a group of connected business is the advice and support given from other members. During my business development so many other members have supported me and given great advice and services. This has been invaluable.

Anyone who wants to grow and develop their business, and make good contacts throughout Essex should seriously consider becoming a member.

Paul Booth from Booth & Co says:

When I first started in business my biggest concern was the ability to get new clients. I have no doubt that the biggest factor in the success of my business has been joining the group. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Richard Reed from Prestige Holidays & Travel says:

I only became involved with the whole networking concept for the first time last year and I can genuinely say that it has worked for me.

Not only has it already more than paid for itself with the business I have gained but meeting with fellow professionals from all walks of life has given me a new energy.

Howard Bullock from Clear Financial Advice says:

As well as providing an important and consistent source of new business, the group is a valuable resource of support and advice which has been vital to the development of our firm.  The trust and respect that builds between members has a direct influence of business growth.
