OUR NEXT EVENT

Stanley House

What our members say...

"I have attended various networking events to get a feel for what they can offer and I found the Preston Business Network stood out head and shoulders above the rest. The pre-lunch seminars are always interesting, members are fully committed to helping other members achieve success and Karen, the leader, ensures you get the most out of your subscription. The excellent company, outstanding venues and delicious lunch are value for money. But most of all, I really look forward to attending the events!"

Jean Atkinson
Eden Marketing Training & Consultancy

"Imagine a networking group that runs like clockwork, with no scary moments, no feeling of wasting your time and no dread when it's time for the next one! I tried a number of different networking groups in the early days of my business and the Preston Business-Network was the only one I have kept on. It is run superbly well by experienced businesswomen Karen Tems & Helen Riley, supported by warm, friendly helpers. They only allow professionals, senior staff and decision-makers to join, which ensures that contacts made are top-quality. Just the number of strategic business partnerships I have made makes it worth my membership fee, but I have also made sales and had referrals. The free seminars are also excellent and have included some top speakers - including Ian Brodie and Will Kintish. Come along as a guest one month, we will all make you very welcome. "
