Why should I make the time to network?
Running a small business can feel quite lonely, especially if you are a sole trader without a team around you for support.
Having worked with a wide range of set-ups over the years we recognised the importance of the chance to mix with others who are in a similar situation, to share ideas, opportunities and sometimes just to let off steam!
Even if the people you meet work in a completely different sector to you, there is still much to be gained, and challenges which are similar whatever type of business you run.
You really never know who you might meet and the opportunities they could provide!
