The Aliso Viejo Chamber of Commerce is always innovating! One of the new and valuable ways for members to gain new business is our new bi-monthly meetings called Leads Group.
The Leads Group meets the 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month and is a time where members can sharpen their networking skills and get to know other local companies. The Leads Group is unlike other networking groups in that it is all about passing active leads and referrals to members of the group and directly improves your economic development.
This week, the Leads Group met at the Aliso Viejo Country Club to discuss the dos and don’ts of networking with a presentation by Merrill Lynch’s Jim Sidaris. Jim explained in his presentation some of the most important characteristics of networking. Every week, a different member will have the opportunity to give a presentation about their company, while all members will gain strategic partnerships and learn advanced selling and presentation techniques.
The Leads Group is included with your Aliso Viejo Chamber of Commerce membership, and all non-members are free for their first meeting! Just remember to bring a stack of business cards, as attendees are encouraged to set up one-on-one meetings following the leads group session.
