What to expect at Fleet Business Networking
What happens at a Fabulous Networking meeting?
- A warm welcome and informal chat
- Introductions rather than sales pitches. Each month we use a different theme to help everyone understand a little more about who you are and what you do. This month… What qualifies/equips you to do what you do? E.g. experience, interests, qualifications
- A speaker or business activity
- Opportunities to share ideas and support one another

Who attends Fabulous Networking Fleet?
Meetings usually include 12-18 people, with a mix of regular members and visitors.
Attendees include financial advisers, HR consultants, accountants, bookkeepers, lawyers, writers, therapists and other small business owners.
Everyone is welcome. We don’t have attendance rules or professional lockouts, and members belong to the wider Fabulous Networking community rather than a single group. This means there’s always a healthy mix of familiar faces and new connections.
Thinking of coming along for the first time?
Visitors are always welcome at Fabulous Networking events, and you’re welcome to attend up to three meetings before deciding whether to join the community.
We regularly get visitors who are new to networking. We promise you a safe, supportive space and warm welcome.
Book your place and come and see whether Fabulous Networking feels like the right community for you.
