Mike Rogers is the finest mortgage broker…..probably

BlogBy Scott GriffithsJuly 18, 201910 Comments

Holiday-season has begun, but nevertheless a busy and energised networking meeting with lots of love for the “Brilliant” Mike Rogers! A relaxed yet effective 10-minute presentation from John Freeman.

“Ben Ben” has adopted another pink porker

A balmy morning had all of the windows and the back door open and the sign on the counter of “no jackets today” was as appropriate for us as it was for food. Thoroughly entertaining and rewarding business networking meeting.

Not a spare seat in the house at this weeks networking meeting, where we welcomed a new member and listened to an excellent presentation from Matt Barry about his business Blue Serif. Chesney Hawkes and Dusty Bin were also discussed!

25 members this week and one visitor, soon to become a new member. We were treated to 10 minutes from Aidan explaining his business, and an all-round good networking meeting in general

Welcome back Mr Chairman! 25 members and 1 new guest made for a great meeting. Danny Wright gave his first 10-minute presentation, and lots of business was duly shared around the room.

Weekly Meeting review written by Terry Maylin

BlogBy Scott GriffithsMay 24, 201910 Comments

Another excellent performance from the whole membership this week, but especially from our stand-in Chairman Howard Bullock. All returns to normal next week when Aidan returns. Positive feedback from our visitors this week and fingers crossed they-ll become members.
