Master Networks
We are a business networking company with chapters starting up around the country. We believe in the power of growing your business through relationships and connecting with others. Training and Development are also key features of our company--we want small business professionals to have opportunities to have access to similar resources as their larger corporation counterparts do. Being connected to something is a good thing. Being connected to a Master Networks Chapter is a great thing. On a weekly basis, members have a full hour to focus on themselves and their businesses. They have the opportunity to teach others about their business via one minute sound bites and ten minute show case presentations. The business training and personal development topics presented each week push them to work on their business, not just in their business. The referrals received from fellow chapter members help their business grow and their return on investment is realized. Members can also step into leadership positions to have a direct impact on the excitement, growth and energy of their chapters. The President, Vice President, and Secretary/Treasurer focus their energy on interactive meetings, growth, training and development and tracking chapter activity. Team Leaders play a vital supporting role for the chapter. Members can find a way to put their talents to work on a variety of teams: welcoming, training, recruiting, technology and events. Contribution and involvement of members leads to an even greater sense of connection to their Master Networks Chapters.
