Support for South Cheshire businesses emerging from lockdown measures is being offered by a new business referral marketing group.<\/p>\n
Team Congleton is the latest NetworkIN Cheshire group to launch, and the first to launch exclusively online.<\/p>\n
It offers business owners and solopreneurs mutual advice and training opportunities to help them during current tough trading conditions.<\/p>\n
Pam Allen, owner of award-winning Cheshire virtual assistant business PA Today, who runs NetworkIN Cheshire, said the number of businesses joining the existing teams in Nantwich, Crewe and Sandbach had grown during lockdown after meetings moved online to keep members connected.<\/p>\n
She said: \u201cI\u2019m continually amazed at how our Cheshire Advocates have pulled together and helped each other adapt to all the changes they\u2019ve needed to make to keep trading during lockdown.<\/p>\n
\u201cNetworkIN Cheshire celebrated its first anniversary in May and now has more than 40 Advocates, and we\u2019re delighted to launch a Congleton team to support any businesses based in and around the town.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere was a clear need to support businesses in this area, and the feedback we\u2019ve had is that providing this online really works.<\/p>\n
“Our Advocates and guests don\u2019t need to travel, it fits around family life, and most of all everyone in the room works together to help each other win new business.\u201d<\/p>\n
New Advocates are welcome from across all sectors and guests can sample an online meeting for free.<\/p>\n
Existing businesses within the teams include mortgage advisors, solicitors, software designers, digital marketers, insurance brokers, financial advisors, and website designers.<\/p>\n
Team Congleton welcomed more than 20 businesses to the first meeting last week, and the next is held today (July 15)<\/p>\n
Meetings then take place every other Wednesday at the same time.<\/p>\n
