For the right business

Are you a foreign exchange specialist near Ongar?

There’s a seat with your name on it, and only one. EBF will only have one foreign exchange specialist, so any foreign exchange referral our members hear about comes straight to you. Ongar is just about 15 minutes from our Thursday meeting along the A128.

Where the work comes from

Why referrals flow for a foreign exchange specialist

The warmest leads don’t often come from online advertising. They come from people who regularly work with businesses paying overseas suppliers and people buying property abroad. This is why accountants, importers and international estate agents are such strong referral partners for any foreign exchange specialist, in Ongar or anywhere in Essex.

Getting there from Ongar

Ongar is a historic market town with a long, independent High Street, the Epping Ongar heritage railway and, close by, Greensted’s church, said to be the oldest wooden church in the world.
Ongar is about 15 minutes from the meeting along the A128.
By train: Ongar has no mainline station, so most members drive in; Brentwood and Shenfield stations are the nearest.

Inside a Thursday meeting

Members meet every Thursday between 6:30am and 8:30am, before most working days begin. Every week you have 60 seconds or more to present your business. Outside the meeting, you’ll book 1-2-1s to learn what each other is looking for.

Costs, and paying monthly

Visiting costs nothing, with no obligation to join. Should you decide to become a member, membership fees can be paid monthly, and there’s a 6-month trial option if you’d rather test the water, which keeps it affordable for newer businesses.

Questions

Can I recommend someone outside Ongar?

No. EBF members travel in from all over Essex, so a trusted foreign exchange specialist in the area is welcome.

Do I have to join after my first visit?

Not at all. Visiting costs nothing, and you’re under no obligation to join. Join us one Thursday, see how the meeting runs and decide for yourself.
