Networking' event organised by Galway Business Club aims to assist local businesses in reaching their sales targets this year. The first of these events will take place at 6.30pm in The Westwood House Hotel, on Wednesday 17 September, so as to give you a head start for the last quarter's sales targets. The Galway Business Club has invited an expert in the field of networking Caitlin O'Connor of Accelerating Performance to facilitate this event. Caitlin brings a unique energy, know-how and passion to this exercise providing motivation and vital tips on productive networking. A business coach and trainer, Caitlin has held senior executive positions in the private and public sector. Her career started with Aer Lingus where she moved from retail sales, customer relations to business planning and marketing. She played a key role in the launch of Esat Clear in addition to the position of Global Product Marketing Director with Point Information Systems as well as senior roles with Nevada.tele.com and Irish Broadband. Statistics show that the benefits of networking far outweigh the productivity of cold-calling. Seventy per cent of all jobs are found through networking. Every person you meet has at least 200 contacts; and anyone that you might want to meet is only six degrees removed. Business owners as well as representatives of Galway businesses are invited to attend, however, the event is limited to one representative in each profession/business in order to prevent internal competition. So this is your rare opportunity to learn more, meet people and develop valuable business relationships. Spaces are limited – to guarantee your place and to avoid disappointment contact Galway Business Club by email at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it or telephone 087-9080126. |
