By joining our business networking group, you will have the opportunity to connect with other local professionals, exchange ideas and stay informed about industry trends. Every week, members have the chance to talk about their business, share updates and ask for help or advice. We politely ask our members to avoid hard sales pitches for the benefit of the group, but we actively encourage business referrals and regularly promote these opportunities.

Business networking events can be a fantastic addition to your marketing plan, but only if they work and align with your values. Wanado Networking is designed to offer the most value to members who are committed to attending on a weekly basis. Consistent attendance allows for regular engagement, establishing trust and fostering meaningful connections every week. If you are unable to commit to regular attendance, there may be other business networking opportunities that align better with your availability and requirements.

However, if you are seeking to fully leverage the benefits of in-person business networking and are willing to dedicate the necessary time and effort, weekly business networking meetings like Wanado Networking can provide you with a platform to nurture valuable relationships and unlock new business prospects in-person and online.

Your monthly membership fee covers the cost of unlimited teas and coffees every week, along with the necessary costs associated with the operations required to effectively promote your business on our website, business directory and social media channels. Funds also go towards your social events and activities, along with occasional prizes and charitable donations. We’re always transparent with these costs and keep you informed about any planned expenditure outside of our typical operations.

Absolutely, Wanado Networking is a perfect fit for businesses in Carlisle. Our networking group is specifically designed to foster connections and collaboration among local businesses and professionals. We provide a friendly and supportive environment where you can meet like-minded individuals, exchange ideas, and expand your network right here in your community. Whether you’re a well-established business or just starting out, our digital benefits, social events, and diverse member base create a welcoming space for businesses of all sizes and industries to thrive. Wanado Networking is where Carlisle businesses come together to grow, succeed, and have fun along the way!
