FAQ's

 

what they say ...

 

Today I attended my first meeting, as a 'visitor', to decide whether I'd like to join.  Having ended the meeting with three prospective new clients, and a lot of very excited interest.  I'm in!  Wrap it, I'll take it!

AS

Visitor ... now a Member!

 

I just thought that you might like to know that I have just totalled up the amount of revenue TipTop generated through Athena referrals from June 2005 to end of June 2006 (my 1st year) and it came to: £24,740.12p.  Needless to say, I will be renewing my membership this year!

It was lovely to meet you today and I really did enjoy the meeting. Having been really apprehensive about the whole networking idea it was great to meet so many nice ladies in such a relaxed environment and to see networking happening naturally without any pressure.

I felt privileged to have been part of the workshop and will certainly digest and put into practice all that you have taught us.

Enjoyed being in an atmosphere that is both warm and ‘buzzing’ whilst increasing my knowledge and experiences of networking.

What I enjoyed about today's workshop was that I am learning more about the 'ease and grace' of networking ... it's finally becoming less daunting.  Thank you.
