Exceptional Connections provides a relationship based approach to networking that encourages and nurtures relationships. We teach the ease and power of building your business one relationship at a time. One of our guiding principles is ‘The Law of Contribution’ which states that “the level of your success and happiness is in direct proportion to the number of people that you serve selflessly”. At ECN, we define success as sowing, not reaping, and we model and teach this philosophy. Robert Louis Stevenson reinforces this belief, ” I consider the success of my day based on the seeds I sow, not the harvest I reap”. With this powerful mindset, businesses naturally flourish as powerful advocates are created, and transformed into an army of raving fans… In addition to attracting exceptional people and businesses each month; we teach networking skills using our 6 Steps to Exceptional Connecting Connection Circle, highlight a different nominated member with an Exceptional Insight presentation, each attendee is offered the visibility of a 45-second Spotlight commercial (we offer a unique opportunity to be seen and heard by everyone in the room), we host a 20-minute Spotlight speaker and showcase the services and products of our Spotlight vendors… Upcoming Exceptional Connections In-Person Networking EventsTuesday, October 11, 2022 - 2nd Tuesday with Melony BuengerTuesday, October 25, 2022 - SkillShop with Lisa FischerTuesday, November 8, 2022 - 2nd Tuesday with Debbie PageTuesday, December 13, 2022 - 2nd Tuesday Holiday ExtravaganzaTuesday, January 10, 2023 - TBDSaturday, January 14, 2023 - SkillShop with Lisa FischerWHO WE ARE: Exceptional Connections® provides a relationship based approach to networking that nurtures authentic and intentional connections since 2009.Connect monthly with positive, like-minded Entrepreneurs and Business Professionals in Fun Live and On-line Environments.
