The Connections Club
Practical, Professional & Profitable Networking
Open to Business Owners, Influencers, and Leaders only, we understand the importance of networking in business.
We focus on business excellence with quality businesses sharing best practices and learning with each other and from other experts, we bring in not on the networking circuit.
Join our members to connect, build and maintain relationships
The Connections Club is a structured and professional networking group which gives you the opportunity to connect with other business owners who are serious about growth, allows you to promote your own business and you take away a valuable skill, learning or insight - at every single meeting.
Attendees are carefully selected to ensure that each meeting is filled with decision-makers and influencers - so you meet the right people to help you grow.
The Connections Club is a paid event (the visitor fee is £39.60 incl. VAT). If you would prefer to pay direct please email barbara@yourbusinessmatters.co to reserve your slot or to ask to be invoiced for the visitor meeting fee.
Note we are not taking bookings for the following slots: IFA Slot, Commercial Insurance , Solicitors wills Trust & probate, Family Law or IP.

Q & A
Is The Connections Club right for you?
Networking is only successful when the right people are introduced to each other, so we are selective about our members. We welcome business owners and influencers who have the ability to make decisions, who are committed to the growth of their business and who are just as interested in buying products and services as they are in selling their own.
Is this you?
If that sounds like you, The Connections Club may be the networking group you’ve been looking for.
Who can attend?
Attendees are all owners or decision-makers within a privately-owned business. (This is not a format that suits MLMs.)
Male, female, start-ups and established businesses - all are welcome.
What makes the Connections Club different?
The objective is to make your networking profitable, not to profit from your networking.
How is this done?
Selective membership increases your chances of meeting the right people.
The attendance of around 70 business owners gives you a large pool of contacts.
The meeting format maximises the number of useful connections you make.
You will eat, meet, learn and share at every meeting.
The membership model attracts regular attendees who get to know you and your business and who are committed to helping you where possible
Face-to-face Meeting format
Our face-to-face meetings are informal networking followed by a seated lunch and a 60-second introduction from everyone at your table. There will then be an open session where you will hear from a speaker who may share business learnings or a skill, chair a debate or manage a discussion amongst the room. Whatever the topic, you will take away something that you can apply to your business.
When will the group meet?
The first Tuesday of the month, 11.45am - 2pm
