The local touch

Last night, I attended the Winter social of my local networking group for women in business. I first learned of the network through a contact I made in the proofreading field, who kindly invited me to join, and last night was my first event. As it was a meal, it was not possible to speak to all the attendees, but the women around me were very welcoming and I have already picked up lots of good advice. The food was amazing too!

If you’re interested in widening your pool of local contacts, or just getting out of the house/office once in a while to chat to like-minded entrepreneurs, have a search online for local networking groups in your area. You won’t regret it.

I’m really looking forward to the next meeting of Inspire Herefordshire, and I hope to be a member for a long time to come.
