Ealing in person business networking Friday 2nd February 2024

Grow your connections in Ealing and beyond.

There’s an old saying that it’s not what you know but who you know that counts. We agree. Our aim is to create the best connections in West London and beyond. Connections to people who will support you and your business. They might become your customers, your advocates and, very likely, your friends.

Fabulous Networking is a membership organisation, but visitors are always welcome. We don’t restrict attendance by profession or gender. We believe that there are opportunities to be gained by working with our competitors. Visitors are encouraged to attend up to three of our events before deciding if they’d like to join.

Our February agenda

Today our focus in personal branding and LinkedIn.

This month’s speaker is Dipa Kotak of Prosperity Business Consulting.  Dipa’s talk is ’30 Minutes per Day to Boost Your Personal Brand and Generate Leads on LinkedIn’

There’s time for informal networking and to introduce your business to everyone present. We don’t do the traditional one-minute pitch. Instead, we find ways to be more spontaneous and interactive. Each month we do something a little different.

Our agenda is structured but flexible to respond to the needs of the group on the day.

Your speaker

Dipa is a qualified accountant and brings her insights to her role as a social media strategist. She is currently working with the London Business Partnership to offer funded training to help businesses in a number of West London boroughs to succeed in business digitally.

Your Host

Glenda Shawley has been a member of Fabulous Networking for more than 10 years. Under its previous ownership she was resp0nsible for marketing. She was so emotionally invested in the community that when the previous owner had to let it go, Glenda had to pick up the gauntlet. She’s been the MD since January 2019.

Glenda is a huge fan of small businesses and their owners and wants to do all she can to support them on their business journey. She has effectively given up her previous business, The Training Pack, to devote all her working hours to growing Fabulous Networking.
