Thrive Business Clubs
Once underway, Thrive clubs meet once or twice a month at their regular venue for breakfast, lunch or after-work drinks.
Each meeting focuses on new business development and follows a tried and tested method of achieving maximum benefit from the quality time available. The aim is to tap into the warm relationships and contacts of fellow members to expand each other’s client base. Initial co-operation between club colleagues often leads to new opportunities outside the Thrive community as confidence in recommending each other to new clients grows between members.
Referral-led networking is not unique to Thrive, it is practiced by other networks such as BNI and BRE. However our method and membership criterion sets us apart.Thrive keeps clubs fresh and energised with a unique mix of Public and Private Meetings.
Thrive Private Meetings are intimate gatherings of members with the principal aim of setting up networking solutions and contacts. These are open to visitors in any gap categories on a Try Before You Buy basis.
Thrive Private Meeting Format:
At each meeting everyone is given a “Magic Minute” to address the rest of the club on who they are, what they want and how they can help other members.
After Magic Minutes, each meeting will allow our VIP speaker to have 15 Magic Minutes during which everyone is served a gorgeous breakfast, lunch or canapés. Following the speaker and networking time, each meeting concludes with a contributions section, which is a round up of referrals, opportunities and offers of introductions from individual participants.
Thrive Public Meeting Format:
Thrive’s public meetings are very different in mood, atmosphere and style.
A VIP speaker or event is laid on to attract visitors from any interested businesses in an attempt to grow the network. Each participant still gets a “Magic Minute” opportunity to showcase their services but the main event is the speaker.
The public/private meetings are designed to maintain energy and enthusiasm while corporate memberships ensure an ever-increasing contacts portfolio is developed.
