How to make it work in BNC?
- Attend as many gathering and event from BNC and our partners as this will assist you in promoting new thoughts and approaches, while also providing a venue for our members to network and exchange ideas
- When you meet someone, it is helpful to exchange business cards and follow up later to discuss points or subjects that came up in your chat.
- You might be able to start trading information, seek knowledge or exchange business connections if they start the conversation first.
- The majority of businesspeople are upbeat and hopeful. Regular contact with our bnc members people may be extremely motivating, especially during the challenging early stages of a new company.
- You may find that most, if not all, business entrepreneurs have gone through similar challenges. Instead of simply attending BNC’s dinner and events, try to come prepared to contribute something useful to the club.
- In many situations, the more people you interact with, the higher are your odds of finding a lucrative opportunity. Talk to as many potential contacts as you can to make numerous connections and build a strong network of indirect and mutual connections. You can later follow up with them to maintain the relationship.
- Lastly remember, count our blessings none of us especially our council and committee member are not getting paid in any form and sacrificing a lot of time and effort to create events and manage the club so try to appreciate and also take part, show up and be the solution
to help up each other to make this club works, grow and be an example to the nation.
Yours faithfully
President & all our hardworking committees in BNC 2022/23
