DESCRIPTION:<p>The Charlotte Business Owners group is a forward thinking gr
 oup for business owners to come together\, network\, and learn through hel
 pful presentations.<br /><br />Our meetings begin with introductions aroun
 d the room (while passing around cards and ordering lunch)\, then topical 
 business presentations. After the presentations\, there is more networking
  and then we wrap-up the meeting.<br /><br />The Charlotte Business Owners
  Networking group is a very unique group because it allows you to leverage
  powerful business tools like....<br /><br />Personal Relationships<br /><
 br />Your net worth is determined by your network! Our structured networki
 ng events provide a perfect opportunity to form and nurture lasting busine
 ss relationships. We also teach you how to become an effective networker.<
 br /><br />Business Education<br /><br />Each event features presentations
  that focus on principles you can apply to grow your business.<br /><br />
 Mastermind Support<br /><br />Interact with fellow business owners to find
  solutions to the challenges you face. Sometimes all it takes is a fresh p
 erspective to solve a problem.<br /><br />Become A Power Networker<br /><b
 r />As a business owner or entrepreneur\, are you serious about using netw
 orking to grow your businesses? Networking matters whether you want new cu
 stomers\, repeat business\, referrals or attention of potential investors.
  However\, it is seldom taught anywhere and consequently most networkers f
 ail to get adequate return out of their investment in business networking 
 meetings.Business networking is not about exchanging cards! There are tool
 s such as elevator pitches\, one-on-ones\, strategic alliances\, follow up
 s and social media that you need to master. Whether you are a pro or a new
 bie\, our tools help you tremendously in honing your business networking s
 kills. Our events are quality events that help you grow into a power netwo
 rker who gets real business out of networking meetings. We also strive to 
 create a synergistic referral network for you.<br /><br />Marketing Platfo
 rm<br /><br />You can also become a sponsor of the group or by doing a spo
 tlight presentation. Spotlight presentations are informational/general bus
 iness type of presentations that are typically non-industry specific.<br /
 ><br />Business Education <br /><br /> Knowledge is a business owner’s b
 iggest asset. Our workshops give you practical tools to help you maintain 
 an edge in the highly competitive world of business.<br /><br />· Do you 
 know how to set business objectives?<br /><br />· How often do you do str
 ategic planning?<br /><br />· Would you like to master sales skills?<br /
 ><br />Dedicated business workshops cost hundreds of dollars and most smal
 l business owners do not have the time and money to take advantage of them
 . That is why our events feature condensed workshops that focus on just on
 e aspect of business. What is more\, you get to mastermind as you interact
  with fellow business owners to find out how the information applies to yo
 ur business! Become a spotlight speaker and promote your business. <br /><
 br />Looking forward to helping you expand your business through referrals
  and education. Let's make networking work.</p>\n<p><script type='text/jav
